Looking for something that taste good while having good value for money? Then Hive is the place for you.Located at the basement of Wynsum Corporate Plaza along F. Ortigas Jr. Ave, Hive is a good place to take a break from your work atmosphere. The cozy dim ambiance makes you relax and refreshed to continue the work day.Although only average rating in taste and portion, you will be able to eat quick tasty food for only 100.00 to 150.00 pesos.The fish and bone-in chicken are okay although the sauce on it is a little salty which will make you want to eat more rice and drink water. The crispy potato side dish is sweet but a little tough to bite.For it's Crazy Oreo dessert, it's very filling and heavy for the tummy. Point for improvement is the portion of batter. It's too thick that it dominates the taste of the oreo and makes you don't want to eat more. #umay But good save by the ice cream which mellows down the thick dry batter taste.As long as you are looking for food that has good value for money and don't expect super good quality food, I think Hive will be one of the place you would want to keep returning to.

It's like a dungeon at least going in here. I've been in this area for more than a decade and I finally checked this resto in the basement. It will take awhile for me to go back though.Got three dishes, Adobo Pula, Gising Gising and Mixed Veggies. I had a different picture in my head before they all arrived. Adobo was good, salty enough and paired well with garlic rice. It's just too greasy and the egg wasn't prepared well. The mixed veggies was mostly cabbage and was too salty. The Gising Gising was so thick it was too heavy to lift it up to eat. What turned me off was service. They sent me Adobo twice and forgot what else I ordered. It also took 25 mins for everything to arrive. I was the first customer.

Urban Hive is one hidden gem in Ortigas. Thus, it is literally hidden, and we thought we got lost already from following the signs before we reached the cafe. It is located at the basement near parking of Wynsum Corporate Plaza. Anyway, after spending some time in this mini labyrinth type of a building a modern and cozy cafe welcomed us. I like that this cafe is really clean and has cheerful staff greeting us warmly. Their menu consists of Filipino and American dishes all priced to save your budget. Although for those who have a big appetite the serving might not satisfy you. I ordered the Carbonara and Ice tea, nothing special but it is not bad too.

For the first time, my officemates brought me here. The ambiance is nice, the walk to the basement wasn't creepy but exciting. I tried carbonara and chicken, tho the chicken was really tasty. I admire the carbonara so much. It's not oily and messy. It's creamy enough and not nakakasawa. I like the place and the food so much. 👍👍👍

Not bad at all for a quick meal. Had the carbonara with a big piece of the soy fried chicken. Chicken is juicy with a crispy exterior and tastes good. Carbonara is good too.
