Happily there is. Our very own Mount Mayon in Bicol becomes the eye-catching setting for your paboritong kapitbahay's newest location...

"Part of 7-Eleven's expansion outside of Metro Manila is also to encourage and support Philippine Tourism," said Valerie Gayle Uy, 7-Eleven's Marketing Communications Division Head. "Our brand is also built on bringing every Filipino convenience that extends to their travels, and now having Mayon's majestic view in the background just sealed the deal." And it really does. Magnificently.

To complete the experience, Enjoy the view with 7-Eleven's bestsellers after all, a view like this deserves an equally satisfying cup to take in the scenery. Made with 100% Arabica beans, the popular and well-loved City Cafe line of 7-Eleven is just what you need to take in the views. Available hot or cold and a variety of flavors like Brewed Coffee, French Vanilla and Mochaccino with prices starting at P 35, a cup of City Cafe just completes the vibe. Need a flavorful boost? Just add the Caramel or Hazelnut flavored syrups for only P 10. looking for a non-coffee option? The warm and indulgent cup of Hershey's Dark Chocolate is my pick.
