SM City East Ortigas Opens New East Wing: Food, Art, and Play in One Vibrant Hub

From global bites and steaming hot pot to bold mural backdrops and barkada game nights, this East-side hub is built for every kind of hangout.

Foodies, art lovers, and gamers — this new hangout spot in the EAST has something for every squad.

From Neapolitan pizza and Okinawan steak to billiards showdowns and art-filled corners, the new East Wing at SM City East Ortigas is more than just a foodie playground — it’s a vibrant hangout spot. Whether you’re a foodie chasing global flavors, an art enthusiast hunting for Instagram-worthy backdrops, or gamers up for friendly matches at the Game Park, this East-side destination brings together passions in one stylish space.

For the Art Squads: The Glow-Up by Kiefsix

Adding to the cool factor? Manila-based illustrator and creative director Kiefsix (Kiefer Indiongco) transformed blank walls into massive, colorful murals. His basketball-inspired, bold designs turn the East Wing into an open gallery, making it as much an art crawl as a hangout hub. And with EYO, a fun, sun-inspired character also designed by Kiefsix, visitors get a playful guide through the space — always selfie-ready and Insta-friendly.

For the Foodies: A Passport of Flavors

The East Wing lineup reads like a culinary world tour:

Basically, it’s your foodie passport without ever leaving Pasig City.

For the Gamers: Chill + Play at the Game Park

If your squad is equal parts foodie and gamer, the East Wing Foodcourt + Game Park is your sweet spot.
