Chukoohills Cafe and Restaurant opens in Bukidnon
Our cafe culture has been thriving, as cafes have become places we visit not just to eat and drink, but for the ‘gram too.
Some of the most popular cafes can be found in hilly Baguio and Tagaytay, but further down south, the Chukoohills Cafe & Restaurant in Lantapan, Bukidnon is worthy of a stopover too whenever you’re traveling around the province.

Chukoohills Cafe and Restaurant is made of wood and bamboo, a flexible, strong, and organic building material, so you’ll be dining not just inside a Filipino-themed cafe, but also one that’s kind to the environment.
