Restaurant Scams in Puerto Princesa

Overpriced Restaurant Tourist Menu

Some restaurants in Puerto Princesa near the Baywalk and market areas present tourists with a separate English-language menu featuring prices significantly higher than what locals pay. In some establishments, prices are quoted verbally at one rate and billed at a higher rate. Tourists dining near the port are particularly targeted as they are perceived to be on cruise layovers with limited time to dispute charges.
