Was expecting more of greek foods in the menu but it turns out just random foods from different cuisines. Nevertheless, food taste good, ambiance was really good, service was great. A good place to hangout when you visit Pinto Museum.

The Pinto Art Museum, located in a stunning setting reminiscent of the Greek village of Santorini in the Mediterranean, showcases a diverse collection of contemporary Philippine art. There are three picturesque cafes within the museum. Café Dionysus, one of them, stands out as a truly fairytale-like space. The Mediterranean-style building and garden are beautifully and stylishly harmonized with sculptural works. It's a beautiful space where sky, nature, buildings, art, and people come together. The numerous open windows allow for beautiful natural lighting. The iced coffee was delicious, and it offered a comfortable resting place. Young couples are often seen here, and this charming space perfectly complements their atmosphere.

Cafe Dionysius is one of the three cafes inside Pinto Art Museum, located on the second floor of the White building, where the ground floor is the artefacts gallery. They have sandwiches, main dishes, and ice cream, but they have 8% service charge on every order. It is a view deck where you can see the interior of the Pinto Art Museum compound.

Cafe Dionysus offers a relaxing and artsy ambiance, perfect for a quick break or a quiet hangout (inside Pinto Art Museum). We had the iced tea and iced americano—both refreshing and well-prepared. The iced tea was light and crisp, while the americano had a bold, smooth kick. A chill spot to unwind with good drinks and calm vibes.

Cafe Dionysus offers various food choices once you're done with all your art sightseeing at Pinto Art. I had a great time slowing down here at this cafe after all the art I had seen during my visit. The food was delicious and the staff were accommodating. They offer card payments and digital payments as well.

More cakes please. We were stuck during today's thunderstorm but it was nice just spending time with loved ones. They have nice vintage glass windows. We loved that the cafe is at the end of the art gallery path and just above the commuter's exit (we didn't know this but my father in law noticed it on the map while waiting for the rain to stop). We'll be back to sample the savory dishes.
