Whether you’re a doomscroller or someone who just casually visits the web, I am sure you have heard the comeback of Tropical Hut Hamburger (THH). 

The trend actually started when Twitter user @dumidyeypee posted a thread about his Tropical Hut nostalgia. People all over the web reminisced their Tropical Hut usuals and started visiting the nearest branch. 

Even I was not spared with the nostalgia and cravings as I saw burgers and clubhouses everywhere. My family would usually dine in the Q-Plaza branch in Cainta on Sundays after grocery runs. I remembered riding the mini carousel in that branch as I wait for our order. With this trend all over social media, I did not miss the chance to enjoy my THH usuals: spaghetti, fries, and burger.  

The Tropical Hut branch in Cainta, Rizal – my OG THH branch

Even I was not spared with the nostalgia and cravings as I saw burgers and clubhouses everywhere. My family would usually dine in the Q-Plaza branch in Cainta on Sundays after grocery runs.

What we ordered during our THH run: Burger Steak, 2pc-Chicken, Fries, Clubhouse Sandwich, Classic Burger, and Mais con Yelo.

We all have our own recollections as a child dining in Tropical Hut – it may be for a birthday reception, after grocery lunch out, or even just a casual dining experience with our friends. Though it may not be in our regular dining choice, its familiar vibe and delectable food menu will always have a spot in our hearts.  

Their hashtag #SarapNaBabalikBalikan says it all.
