Big Belly Burger from Siargao now serves your favorite comfort food and happy hour drinks alongside its signature wagyu burgers—enjoyed in a laid-back surf island vibe in BGC.
Big Belly Burgers, founded in 2020 on Siargao by two Spanish friends, Marc Alberich and Chef Miguel “Mingu” Marcelino, quickly became a local favorite thanks to its juicy Wagyu smash burgers, creative menu, and relaxed surf‑island vibe.
