Abstract This study evaluated the environmental impacts of barbecue food stalls in Barangay San Vicente, Liloan, Cebu, through a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). The analysis encompassed key operational stages, including raw material sourcing, food preparation, cooking, energy and water use, and waste management. The results revealed significant environmental concerns, such as high carbon emissions from daily charcoal usage, substantial water consumption, and challenges in waste disposal. Each stall emitted approximately 144–180 kg of CO2 equivalent daily and consumed 18 gallons of water. Improper waste management practices further exacerbated the ecological footprint. To address these issues, the study recommended transitioning to energy-efficient cooking methods, implementing sustainable waste management systems, and promoting responsible sourcing practices. These measures aimed to reduce the stalls' environmental impacts while preserving their cultural and economic contributions to the local community.
