Gerry’s Grill Restaurant Franchise

As with many things in life, great things may come from certain passions, big or small. With Mr. Gerry Apolinario, such was exactly the case. Gerry had a particular fondness for good food; a passion he shared with his family and friends. And from an earnest penchant for drink and grilled food, he yearned for a venue where both may be enjoyed amidst an atmosphere that was fun, fresh, and wholesome.

Thus, after rounding up friends and relatives for a particular business venture, Gerry’s Grill was born on February 14, 1997. Its slogan then was, “You’d rather be at Gerry’s.” Located along Tomas Morato corner Eugenio Lopez Avenue in Quezon City, Gerry’s Grill boasted of a menu packed with scrumptious food ranging from grilled seafood and Filipino favorites to exotic cuisine and tastefully prepared beer mates and pica-pica. Along with favorite beverages from non-alcoholic drinks to brews and mixed preparations, Quezon City residents enjoyed the food immensely.

The combination was more than perfect for the typical barkada get together. The place was so inviting and so unintimidating it began to attract the dining and family crowd. Gourmets and gourmands came with families, in groups of friends and colleagues, and a lot of couples; and whether male or female, some even went solo for a relaxing time at the bar.

With its tropical motif, an extensive collection of music, accommodating service, affordable prices, delicious food, and popular drinks, Gerry’s Grill spelled the equation for steady success and rapid expansion in the restaurant business.

True enough, by the same equation plus the inclusion of an air-conditioned non-smoking area, Gerry’s Grill Jupiter was opened on January 9, 1999. Barely two years from the birth of the original bar & restaurant, Makati residents and executives were captivated by the same good food and quality service conveniently located in Jupiter Street in Makati City.

After three years from its conception and just almost a year from the success of its Makati branch, Gerry’s Grill has tapped into yet another segment of its wide market. On November 27, 2000, the largest outlet has sprung out in the heart of the fast developing Libis Area in Quezon City.

Other outlets opened in Alabang Town Center, Glorietta Makati, Bicutan, SM Pampanga, Subic, Ayala Center Cebu, Lucena City, SM Baguio, Wavemall Macapagal Avenue, Greenhills, SM Batangas, Wavemall Marikina.

S
till, the boundaries seem far and wide for Gerry’s Grill to spread the Gerry’s taste and we maintain the battle cry “You’d (still) rather be at Gerry’s”. Soon enough, Gerry’s Grill will truly be a household name among Filipinos at home and abroad.
