You know that scene in a movie where the character finds a magical little café by the sea, the waves are gentle, the food is comforting, and everything just feels right?

Perched along the coastal stretch of KM49 in Northern Cebu, this charming café is part of The Grotto at KM49, and it’s everything a wanderer’s heart dreams of: laid-back ambiance, ocean views that stretch for days, and food that tastes like a warm hug from your lola.
Rustic, Seaside, and Undeniably Cebuano
First impressions? It’s like stepping into a postcard.
The café’s design is all wood, all warmth, and all charm. Think nipa-style roofing, wooden beams, and cozy seating that faces the sea—because, of course, every meal here comes with a view.
It’s the kind of place that doesn’t try hard to impress. It just is impressive. The sea breeze does its thing, the waves hum in the background, and the whole vibe says: slow down, you’re in Catmon now.

The Menu That Brings Comfort (and Cravings)
At SeaSalt, they don’t overcomplicate things—and that’s what makes it so good.
The menu is honest-to-goodness Filipino comfort food, made with love and served with flair:
Silog classics that hit the spot, whether you’re a tapsilog traditionalist or a chorizo-silog loyalist
Crispy sisig, lasagna, and house specials that taste just like home (if home had an ocean view)
Fruit shakes and iced teas so refreshing they should come with a beach towel
And yes, coffee that makes early mornings worth waking up for
Bonus: it’s all homemade. You can taste the care in every bite.

And when you do find it, you’ll understand why locals keep coming back and why visitors find it hard to leave.
Let’s Talk Views for a Second…
The real star here? That endless view of the sea.
You can sip your coffee as the sun rises from the horizon, or just chill as the sky paints itself pink and gold. Every wave feels like a soft “hello,” and every breeze carries a little bit of peace with it.
