I have visited Boracay twice and the service at Maruja is also great. The staff contribute to an amazing relaxing environment. The Drinks and shisha are good and it’s one of the only places on white beach that you can smoke shisha during the day....Leo does a frat job preparing shisha. I recommend visiting this establishmentMore

Very nice place with great atmosphere and live music. Drinks are ok, food is delicious. Only the bathrooms in the back badly need renovating and don’t match the good design and cleanliness of the cafe.

This is my go to spot for a great casual lunch or dinner. Over my last 3 trips to Boracay since December, I have eaten here 5 times. The food and ambiance is fantastic. There were 6 of us this time and we got to...try quite a few dishes. We had the calamari appetizer, pork sisig, beef caldereta, garlic rice, the Maruja Speciale pizza, and the Cheesy Beef Burger. They were all excellent! The Iced Caffe Bombon is my favorite! I dream about it when I’m back home in the States and it’s the first thing I order every time! See you next time!More

Food was very instagrammable. A bit in the pricey side but would say the size of the food and the presentation makes up to it. Highly recommended.

Underwhelming experience. This place is more for the Insta shots rather than the food. The decor is pretty and view is wonderful right by the sea. Food is too overdone with colouring and lacks flavour. The burger was ok but would not recommend the eggs...royale.More

This cafe is perfect for IG-worthy photos, plus they serve delicious and aesthetic food. I reco this for events like birthday celebrations — they give complimentary syrup on plate too!

Nice, open air restaurant on station 3 beach. Good selection of breakfast food. The pancakes were a hit with the kids. Service was good though nearly everyone was finished by the time my breakfast came.

I absolutely loved the food and the ambiance. I suggest going in the evening so you can truly enjoy the lights, music, sunset, etc. you get both quantity and quality here. We ordered the vegan burger and sinigang soup (tuna belly soup). The latter was...from the restaurant next door but they seem to be together. Both were delicious. I would definitely go back.More
