Now Open: Wit and Humor, Filipino-Style

Way back in 2006, during the prehistoric era of my blogging life (you know, when Friendster testimonials were still a thing and “selfies” were just called pictures of yourself), I started collecting a quirky little list: funny Philippine store names.

Fast-forward to today — many social media posts, memes, and controversial senate hearings later — our nation has not lost its touch for humor. In fact, it seems Filipino entrepreneurs have only sharpened their wit, proving once again that we can sell anything and make you chuckle while we’re at it.

So here I am, years later, updating my treasure trove of hilariously inventive store names. It’s a collection that reminds us that beyond the commerce, there’s always comedy.

Hope you enjoy this playful roundup of wit, wordplay, and unprecedented creativity I’ve amassed… because in the Philippines, even our business names know how to do business with a punchline.

Drumroll, please… 🥁 Here are some of the punniest, wittiest, and downright laugh-out-loud gems you’ll spot while strolling through our streets:
