The cafe is a nice place to hangout and chill. It's alfresco dining. There's a live band from Thursday to Sunday. Food is delicious and yummy. I particularly liked the pesto and mojos. Staff is very accommodating. The resto is full at night so you have to come early.

The place is near the Airport along the highway. The food was great and the staff were so accommodating. It's an alfresco dining, local bands also play during the night. They're specializing in coffee-based drinks.

Tried their Salisbury Steak, and it was superb! It tastes home-cooked. I rarely eat beef, but I really liked this one. The staff is friendly too. I love dining at Francisco's with the soft music from their speakers. However, I'm not a fan of the live band inside, as I find it too loud and hard to hear my company.

For tourist to Daraga or Donsol, this cafe can be a good choice for several reasons 1) Free WiFi 2) Open all days and close late approx 10pm 3) many choices of main Asian dishes, rice, pasta and coffee 4) good service. The cafe is pretty modern so you should feel comfortable and relax.

Francisco's Cafe offers a variety of quick snacks and comfort food selections such as sandwiches, burgers, all day breakfast meals, salad, unli chicken or just plain chicken meals, sizzling dishes, family meals, sinigang, pasta, rice meals, pulutan, appetizers like fries and mojos, drinks both alcoholic (beers and rhum) and non alcoholic ones like tea, frappe, coffee and juices ; pastries and many more dishes in their wide range menu. Their signature pasta which is Francisco's Pasta is a must try. I personally like it a lot. It has that seafood taste which I enjoyed. The creaminess of the sauce and immence flavor makes me want to taste it again and to order it always when visiting the place. Great place to eat before going to the Bicol International Airport or after you arrive from your flight. The place is located at Zone 6, Bascaran, Daraga, Albay near road leading to the new airport of the Province of Albay. They also cater Japanese dish like the Sushi Mix which they served from Monday to Wednesday. Starting Thursday to Sunday a live acoustic session took place in the Cafe. It is a great time to invite friends and just enjoy the vibe or ambiance of the place while dining to their food. Overall a great place to try and experience. Nice staff and they are well accomodating to the needs of the customer. So come and visit Francisco's Cafe for a weekday or a weekend chill and relaxing moment.
