Initially created to serve hotel-goers at Victoria Court 24/7/365, the brand soon recognized that comfort food cravings don’t adhere to a strict schedule, and hunger can strike at any time of the day or night, whether within Victoria Court branches or outside at people’s homes. 

 

To cater to this insatiable desire for deliciousness, Victoria Bites keeps its kitchens operational 24/7/365.

Their menu is also available in food delivery services like Grab and Foodpanda to cater to fast-paced lifestyles.

 

The heart and soul of Victoria Bites lie in its menu, a carefully curated collection that features Filipino comfort food that has been reimagined for the modern palate.
