I like taking people to the speakeasys there... at the Bank, at the Shrangri-la.... otherwise it's just another shopping mall.

At the end of High Street Serendra Now I don't know where is F1 Google Map usually is accurate

Getting to BGC from Intramuros is taking a taxi or if you have a Grab app, you can book a Grab car in minutes.

the moment you reach makati, simply hail a taxi or grab.

spiv005 is right, there are many options for Starbucks at BGC. The one in Highstreet is nice and you can choose to walk around afterwards. My favorite Reserve Starbucks is at Central Square, 2nd floor of the mall. Reserve coffees are pour over specialty coffee and it comes with a cookie, although the cookie became smaller than a month ago :))

Afraid I was only there on holiday, I would not be in a position to answer. Sorry!

I would whole-heartedly recommend MaxStays Victoria Towers in BGC; it's located at the corner of 5th and 23rd Street which makes it ideal to both business and entertainment venues. Best thing is they can personalize your stay. Just send them an email and tell them what you want in terms of accommodation and price. Good luck!

Take the LRT from Legarda to EDSA via Araneta-Cubao , then transfer to MRT, alighting at the Ayala Station. Get down from the station and take the bus that will take you to BGC. Enjoy the trip!
