Gerry's Restaurant and Bar Gears Up for 20th Anniversary

Thursday, November 24, 2016



Gerry's Grill started February 14, 1997 so it only means it's already almost their 20th year! They've done a lot, and they've introduced Filipino grill viands since then. Now known as Gerry's Restaurant and Bar they offer a lot of items on their menu now.


It wasn't easy, and they've had challenges like the economy, foreign brands coming in, innovation and change was inevitable. They had a couple logo changes and had to show what changes they had inside. They dropped the grill in the name because they now have an extensive menu. They now have 80 branches locally and 6 more outside the country. They plan to open about 8 more in the coming year. They will still expand, and feel they are jusy halfway because there are still a lot of places where pinoys reside. They also have Ramen Sora, Aresi, Bincho Tan, even Gerry's Plus. 



They use the same suppliers, train the same and monitor quality and do random check plus a head chef in every store to maintain the standard of food. They listen to their clientele and slowly cater to their needs and what used to be a bar the only opens in the evening to the wee hours of the morning, to now a whole day with families and kids now. The plan now is to get to do something they have never done before, in general they want to be solid with their digital presence, run consumer promotions and slowly change the place, the lights, the mood welcoming a new wave of people to come insude their stores. Still a family restaurant but even better. Major renovations, sprucing up so you get the new look, a collective effort from their franchisees and the company because they're always been like that. So expect BIGGER and BETTER stores from Gerry's Restaurant and Bar soon!

P.S. They even had some of their first employees were there! She was a clerk and he was a bartender, now they're the worldwide operations manager. 

CSB Lady Blazers were also there! This is the first time they are sponsoring the NCAA champs!

The Philippine Volcanoes were there too and they're now gearing for the SEA Games too!

Gerry's Plus Opens at UP Town Center

Friday, April 24, 2015



How many times have you gone out for lunch/dinner with friends and you couldn't make up your minds about where to go? Crazy isn't it? Well, that's about to change if you're near the UP Town Center because Gerry's Plus has opened its doors to the public last March 26, 2015! They're located at the second floor of the second building that's pretty near the exterior stairs.

Gerry's Plus is mostly much like Gerry's Grill but with a few items added to the menu. The ambiance is a little upscale sports shack, with a little country wood interiors too. It's relaxed, not too strict, no dress codes either, which is good in my books. They say they stayed in the Gerry's Grill concept because it would be hard to start a restaurant from scratch, at least with the name recall, you can adapt with the brand right away and you'll practically get the same menu, same price with some added food items of course. Still, it's not inferior to the Gerry's Grill Brand.

The Interiors


They have an open viewing kitchen, exposed beams, wood and slate walls, wooden and upholstered leather chairs mixed in. Seating capacity is around 60-80, with 16 of them in al fresco overlooking the Katipunan strip.

Gerry's Grill Partners With FoodPanda

There's one thing for me that never changes, and that is the love for Gerry's Grill's Pork Sisig. The crunchy, flavorful, chopped pork bits is always there on the table when I'm out with friends and family. Who doesn't? Aside from good food, we've had memories made in this restaurant that couldn't be better. Well, we don't always get to go to there everyday when we crave for this, so this news might be the best that happened to Gerry's Grill fans like me. Have you heard of foodpanda?

Foodpanda leads the global online food delivery marketplace and currently, they are present in more than 40 countries.They've been in the Philippines for quite some time now and they've been able to connect restaurants with their target customers via their website www.foodpanda.ph or their apps over at Google Play (for Android) and the App Store. Ordering is a breeze and I've done it quite a few times already. Gerry's Grill finds value in the online market and it's something that they haven't tapped even if they are in the business since 1997. As they partnered with foodpanda, the missing link between Gerry's Grill and the online audience will be bridged. This means, your dreams of Sisig, Crispy Pata, Sinigang and all your favorite Filipino dishes can now come true. Either by their website or the apps, a few flicks of a button can send scrumptious food to your doorstep in a jiffy. All that and much more on this partnership. 

Francis Villaluz, the Sr. Marketing Manager of Gerry’s Grill says "We’ve long wanted to tap the online market especially for our delivery service, and foodpanda came in with the perfect proposal, presenting an easy way to reach the online food lovers via their website and mobile application, and aggressive marketing strategies. Digital awareness brings in high traffic and enables the customers to get in touch with the restaurant easily and vice versa. We are excited!"



Mauro Cocchieri, the Managing Director of FoodPanda Philippines says “We give importance to brand reputation and influence, and given Gerry’s proven track-record and presence in the Filipino food community, this partnership is really something that we’ve looked at a couple of times. Me and my team are really happy with this partnership.
With the ways things are going with Gerry's Grill and the expansion of their portfolio this year (international branches and new brand Sweet Chili), it's going to be an even bigger year for them this 2015. Getting that portion of the market online where "people who look for you would be able to see you" and "order online" to get what you want right in the comforts of your own home. That is a great deal right there. That just puts foodpanda in present form as a hub for everything that you want to have at home, on your dinner table, when you want it, where you want it. 

If you haven't tried it yet, now maybe the best time. You've got the great food from Gerry's Grill in your neighborhood waiting. Does the Crispy Pata, Kare Kare or Sisig need to convince you? I don't think so. Stay tuned as I might give you a treat in the next few days so YOU can experience FoodPanda too!
