MISTER DONUT ET DUNKIN’ DONUTS
Read moreOne of the favorites of Filipinos, not a street that has its Mister Donut and cannot offer neighbors its famous assortment of sweets.
THE ISLAND AT THE PALACE
Read moreIn the heart of Bonifacio Global City, the Palace is a huge entertainment complex (the largest in the country!) that brings together no less than five bars and clubs. The Island is one of them. Nestled on the roof and inspired by the beach clubs of Bali or Saint-Tropez, the island has the originality of containing a swimming pool that gives it a certain cachet. Around it, a large dance floor where you can sway and plenty of small bars (shots, tequila, rum...). The ideal festive place before continuing the night at Xylo, the club n°1 of the Palace.
COWBOY GRILL
Read moreIt is a bar-restaurant where several music bands play live every night. The atmosphere is a bit noisy, but also warm. Grilled meats washed down with beer are the specialty. And the platters of snacks to share are quite tempting. The name gives you the tone, we are on a 100% Filipino bar, with a very local atmosphere, far away from the new cocktail bars and other trendy places that swarm in the neighborhood. We let you make your own opinion...
DELIFRANCE ET LE CŒUR DE FRANCE
Read moreThey will allow all lovers of croissants to find them. Baguettes and some other French delicacies are available.
FLOUR JAR MANILA
Read moreA café that's also a bakery. The interior is quite small, quiet and very cosy, with a slightly bohemian-chic decor. The pastries are extremely appetizing: cookies, cheesecake, donuts, carrot cake and other cakes, each more tempting than the last. The coffees are very good, as are the other fresh fruit juices and milkshakes. What's more, the staff are very friendly. There are also a few savoury dishes, such as great nachos, pastas and sandwiches. A good address in Las Piñas for almost ten years.
JESS BILLARD BAR
Read moreSmall, convivial bar frequented by resident foreigners. Jess, the owner, and his wife will be happy to give you all kinds of advice as you follow your trip.
BAM BAR
Read moreLocated in the center of Coron but set back from the main road. Bam Bar shares a large patio with the other cafes and restaurants next door. This allows you to order a beer or a cocktail at Bam Bar and order food (pizza, Filipino food, etc.) at one of the other restaurants. The atmosphere is pleasant and relaxing in the late afternoon, before becoming more festive as the evening progresses (there are live concerts). It is also a good place to meet other travelers.
TRIBU KURIDAS BAR AND TATTOO
Read moreLocated on the main road, in the heart of the city, it is the meeting place for night owls in Coron. Every night, it's a live music concert at 8pm (often a reggae or Latin music band) followed at 11pm by a dj set. The place is friendly and the atmosphere festive. It is a sure value for those who still have energy in the evening and want to go out. It is also a tattoo parlor, for those who want to keep an "inked" souvenir of their trip.
CULTURAL CENTER OF THE PHILIPPINES (CCP)
Read moreThe Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) has been promoting and preserving the Filipino arts in all their forms for almost 60 years. The modern but somewhat austere building houses a multitude of exhibition, performance and creative spaces. One can see all types of performances (dance, music, theater), installations, films, etc. The online calendar is complete and detailed. An opportunity to encounter Filipino art.
QUENTO
Read moreQuite a big bar, with a bit of a lounge atmosphere. It fills up slowly from 6pm, even during the week. The atmosphere is very friendly, the young people of Legazpi meet there to have a drink with friends while listening to a live concert. Choice of the usual beers, cocktails, and some dishes to share. The staff is very friendly. The plus: the terrace in height. Special mention for the roasted peanuts given to nibble: they remind the street-food vendors of Manila and are delicious.
BLACK SCOOP CAFÉ
Read moreLocated on the main road, Black Scoop Café is a nice and modern address where you can meet the youth of Legazpi at the end of the school day, as teenagers come here to have a bubble tea or a milkshake. They either relax or do their homework, in a relaxed atmosphere. There is a large choice of coffees (which is very good, by the way) and more original and gourmet drinks (coffee shakes, milkshakes, etc.). In case of hunger, there are various cakes, and the cookies are very good.
CHEZ ROSE BEACH BAR
Read moreOn BM beach, Chez Rose is a small typical beach bar, a kind of bamboo and coconut fiber hut and a larger hard hut with a terrace. It's a great place to hang out with friends over a milkshake, a cold beer or even a cocktail. There are often DJ sets or even live music and of course chairs to relax with your feet in the sand. On the other hand, it is said that the best parties in Puerto Princesa take place on thesecond floor of Chez Rose, which turns into a club on weekends.
SAVA BEACH BAR
Read moreEstablished a few years ago, Sava Beach Bar has quickly established itself as one of El Nido's must-see night spots. With its lounge atmosphere, terrace overlooking the sea and rooftop, it is the ideal place for a drink with friends during happy hour (4-6pm) or at the end of the night. They regularly organize theme parties (body painting, fire throwers...) and dj's sets. Also, the cocktails are probably among the best in El Nido and there are a few options for sustenance. A great place for a wild night out!
BAGUIO CRAFT BREWERY
Read moreFounded in 2014, Baguio's first craft brewery offers a wide selection of draft beers for every taste. IPAs, fruity, lagers and browns, it's a welcome alternative to San Miguel's monopoly. From the outside, the building located along the highway does not look like much. Inside, the bar has a glass roof terrace decorated with climbing plants, with a breathtaking view of Baguio and its surroundings. Perfect to start the evening without fuss. Various dishes with beer are also served. A nice discovery.
TIKI RESTO BAR
Read moreLet's admit it, it's not the most trendy or fun bar in the Philippines, but in Puerto Princesa it's a famous address frequented by the local youth and many travelers. The place is appreciated for its half-American and half-Philippine food (fried chicken wings, lechon, pizzas...) but especially because every night, a band comes to play live. And the weekend, more wild parties are organized as the inevitable foam parties. Notice to the amateurs... Tropical atmosphere.
PUKKA BAR
Read moreLocated on the main road, near Corong-Corong. Maybe not the biggest bar in El Nido, but maybe one of the nicest. Here, it's a reggae atmosphere in the tropics around the friendly team of Pukka, between beach, beers, dreadlocks and flip-flops. We love the place, a little bit crazy (on several levels), and the atmosphere. We recommend it for a festive and friendly evening. The place also serves as a restaurant (relatively correct international cuisine). Theme evenings are regularly organized.
EL UNION COFFEE
Read moreA must for coffee lovers but not only! They also serve gourmet and original dishes (the grilled cheese sandwich is recommended) and cookies. As for the coffee, they are all delicious. So, a good coffee and a snack, the whole tasted on a charming terrace near the beach... what more could you ask for? If the atmosphere wasn't enticing enough, you should know that there are regular concerts. Expect to wait in line, this little coffee shop is a bit of a victim of its own success.
MUSIC 21 PLAZA FAMILY KTV ROOM
Read moreWe told you, Filipinos are absolute fans of karaoke, in the city in places like this one, even on the most isolated beaches where you can find karaoke boxes that seem to come out of another era. This is your chance to try your hand at this very special art. Packages with several hours of music and songs, drinks and snacks are offered. It's the promise of a typical Filipino evening (or night!).
