Nestled inside D'Mall, just steps from Boat Station 2 in Boracay, you'll discover a vibrant array of food spots—but one that always draws a crowd, especially during mealtimes, is the wildly popular Filipino fast food chain, Andok's. Beloved by both locals and tourists alike, this bustling eatery is perpetually packed—and for good reason.
Don’t be too quick to dismiss it as “just another fast food chain,” pause for a moment—because if you’ve come all the way to Boracay, overlooking their authentic Filipino-style charcoal-grilled chicken would truly be a missed culinary opportunity.

Andok's: A Filipino Favorite for Affordable, Flavorful Eats
Andok's has hundreds of branches across the Philippines, and on Boracay alone, you’ll find five locations:
- Station 1 Main Road
- Inside D'Mall at Station 2 (this is the branch we visited)
- Near the Tourist Center at Station 3
- Another location on Station 3 Main Road
- At the D'Talipapa Seafood Market
They're best known for their grilled chicken, skewers, crispy pork, and fried chicken. However, the undisputed star of their menu remains their legendary charcoal-roasted whole chicken, famously known as Litson Manok.
A Taste of Nostalgia – Messy Hands, Pure Joy
For many of us, roast chicken brings back strong memories—whether it was a Costco rotisserie chicken on a weeknight, a backyard BBQ, or tearing into fried chicken at a family picnic.
It was the kind of meal where no one bothered with forks and knives. You'd sit around the table, pull the meat straight off the bone, and end up with greasy fingers and a satisfied smile. Messy? Absolutely. But that's what made it so good.
Of course, food trends come and go. While you can still find rotisserie chickens at the grocery store, that old-school, eat-with-your-hands experience is increasingly rare—especially when it comes to that distinct smoky, real charcoal flavor.
Filipino-Style Charcoal-Grilled Chicken: Authenticity Done Right
But let’s get back to Andok’s and their famous chicken.
Once you arrive in Boracay, you’ll quickly notice that Locals here have a serious love for meat—grilled, skewered, or roasted, it’s meat, meat, and more meat. For meat lovers, this island is paradise.
Andok's fits right in. Their top-selling dish is the whole charcoal-grilled chicken (also available in half or quarter portions). Even before you reach the storefront, the smoky aroma of charcoal fills the air and leads you straight to it.
It’s rare these days—especially among fast food chains—to find chicken cooked entirely over a real charcoal fire. Most places have switched to electric rotisseries for convenience and cost, but that unmistakable smoky flavor just isn’t the same.
Andok’s chicken gets it right. The skin is crisp and beautifully charred. Tear it open, and the meat inside is remarkably juicy and tender—infused with that irresistible smoky depth that only real charcoal can deliver.
Your order comes with a small dipping sauce—sweet with a subtle kick of spice. However, the chicken itself is so richly packed with flavor. If you prefer lighter seasoning, you might even skip the sauce altogether and just dig in.
Andok's Boracay Menu: Ordering Guide & Must-Try Dishes
Ordering at Andok's is simple and straightforward, just like at most fast food restaurants. Their overhead menu boards feature large, clear photos of each item. Simply tell the staff the number of the meal you desire, pay at the counter, and you'll receive a number card. Place it on your table, and the staff will bring your food to your table when it's ready—no need to linger around the counter.
Now, when it comes to the menu itself—while Andok's offers a wide variety of dishes, we have to say, their charcoal-grilled chicken is still the standout favorite.
We’ve also tried the pork skewers, which were super fragrant, but a bit tough on the bite—definitely a test for your jaw strength!
Here’s a quick guide to some of the most popular mains at Andok’s, so you know what to look out for on your visit:
Andok's Litson Manok (Charcoal-Grilled Chicken) / PHP 72–279
This is their signature dish, available in whole, half, or quarter portions.
- Whole chicken: listed as “Original Jumbo” — PHP 279
- Half chicken: “Super Half” — PHP 140
- Quarter chicken: “Quarter” — PHP 72
Though their whole chickens aren't especially large, they’re plenty for two people to share. For solo diners, the half portion is perfect. We ordered half a chicken and a few side dishes, and still had room left to try something else afterwards. :)
Dokito (Fried Chicken Meal) / PHP 55
Andok’s fried chicken is also well known, though it tends to take a backseat to the grilled version. It’s a budget-friendly choice, priced at just PHP 55 per serving.
Fried Chicken Leg / PHP 68
This is a single leg portion of fried chicken. Simple and satisfying at PHP 68.
Chicken BBQ / PHP 85
This BBQ chicken leg comes with dipping sauce. Another flavorful option for PHP 85.
Pork Barbecue Skewers / PHP 30
You'll receive four skewers per order. They're flavorful, yet quite chewy—so be prepared for a bit of a workout for your jaw! Priced at PHP 30 per set.
Crispy Pata (Deep-Fried Pork Knuckle) / PHP 345
A traditional Filipino specialty, Crispy Pata is a must-try for adventurous eaters. This dish is rarely found outside the Philippines, making it well worth ordering at least once. The whole knuckle is priced at PHP 345.
Liempo (Crispy Grilled Pork Belly) / PHP 205
Liempo is similar to Chinese-style crispy roasted pork belly—crackly skin, alternating layers of lean and fat. A satisfying and fatty indulgence for PHP 205.
Lechon Kawali (Deep-Fried Pork Belly) / PHP 195
This one looks nearly identical to Liempo but is deep-fried instead of grilled. It's also slightly more affordable, at PHP 195.
BBQ Liempo / PHP 71
This is the same pork belly as above, but finished with a sweet-savory BBQ sauce. Price: PHP 71.
Bicol Express (Green Beans and Pork in Coconut Stew) / PHP 41–79
Vegetables are rare on Boracay menus, so we jumped at the chance to try this dish when we saw greens in the photo.
We originally mistook it for some kind of green bean curry, but Filipino friends later explained that Bicol Express is a spicy coconut stew traditionally made with pork and long green chili peppers. Andok's swaps in green beans, and the result is rich, mildly spicy, and full of flavor.
It comes in two sizes: Single (PHP 41) or Double (PHP 79).
Affordameals (Budget Rice Sets)
For a quick, all-in-one meal, Andok’s Affordameals pair meat dishes with white rice.
- Chicken BBQ with Rice — PHP 105
- Porkchop with Rice — PHP 72
- Dokito with Rice — PHP 75
- Bicol Express with Rice — PHP 60
- Pork Barbecue Skewers with Rice (2 skewers) — PHP 80
- BBQ Liempo with Rice — PHP 91
Final Thoughts + Must-See Boracay Food Video
Andok's has branches all over Boracay—While we visited the D'Mall location, you'll also find them conveniently situated near Station 3, along Station 1’s beachside road, and on the island’s main highway (Main Road).
Some locations have air-conditioning for a more comfortable indoor dining experience. The D'Mall branch doesn’t, but the semi-open layout and breezy air kept us cool enough during our meal.
There’s a handwashing sink available here too, so you can clean up before digging into the chicken with your hands—very handy! Just be aware: this branch is always busy, and seating is tight. Be prepared to wait in line or share a table with strangers (unless you’re in a big group and can take over a full table). :)
Dining in Boracay ranges from ultra-luxe to ultra-cheap. Andok’s falls solidly on the affordable side, making it a great budget-friendly choice. The flavors won’t disappoint, and it’s kid-friendly too. We definitely recommend saving a few meals in your itinerary for Andok’s—you’ll enjoy it, and your wallet will seriously thank you later.
