Mactan Alfresco – Cebu’s Food Destination by the Beach

Jul 16, 2025

Back to blogs

Megaworld’s Mactan Alfresco, located just steps from the main entrance of The Mactan Newtown, is a vibrant dining strip inspired by Singapore-style hawker centers. Under a massive open-air gazebo, visitors can enjoy authentic Cebuano dishes served by popular local stalls in a refreshing, breezy setting.

Inside, more than a dozen handpicked tenants offer a tempting variety—from lechon belly, grilled native chicken, and seafood to Mexican nachos, seafood boil, and local karinderya favorites. All can be paired with live performances or the coastal breeze as you dine.

A highlight you won’t see elsewhere is Mactan Alfresco’s own lechon pit, where guests can watch the traditional roasting process and savor freshly grilled Cebu lechon from brands like Ayer’s, Ana’s, and Cebu’s Original Lechon Belly.

It’s more than just food—it’s a cultural and lifestyle experience, especially during special events like the Lechon Festival, where live grilling, street performances, and local fare come together in a celebratory feast.
