I recently discovered Joel’s Place during its launch at Glorietta. It's a unique grocerant where you can shop for essentials and enjoy a meal afterward.
They offer hot meals, coffee, and pastries. If you're craving Korean cuisine, they have bibimbap, and they also have salads for the health enthusiasts.
The ambiance is perfect for chilling, and the food is excellent. Plus, it's a great spot to bring your family and friends.
Come to a culinary haven that puts your well-being at the forefront. Joel’s Place, a contemporary grocerant, delivers everyday luxuries to Filipinos by offering the best in thoughtfully curated gourmet selections, within a friendly community setting.
Since its inaugural launch at The Proscenium Retail Row in Rockwell, Joel’s Place has become a beloved neighborhood space where folks enjoy an elevated retail experience–one that evokes discovery and learning, delights the senses, and nourishes the mind, body, and soul. Following the warm reception of its first store, Joel’s Place is opening its second location this July at the Ground Floor of Rustan’s Makati, Glorietta 4.
