starbucks Posted May 23, 2010 Share Posted May 23, 2010 I'm always posted overseas so i really go out for a drink at bars alone. This is to relieve stress and perk up for the next day... along the way meron na rin akong nakakachat na mga ladies but i'm not really thinking of having 1 night stands since me pasok the next day.... i like those english type pubs where you can just sit there on the bar and go people watching or watch the live band or chatting with friendly strangers...meron pa bang ganong type of place sa manila? I'll be posted there around august/september till end of year so if you have any place in mind please recommend some...a round of drinks for you if we bump on each other there....ipaalala nyo lang! rgrds, Quote Link to comment
linusoft Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 kahit saan namang bar pwede, as long as your intention to go there is to relax, chill-out, unwind... Quote Link to comment
ConsistentlyInconsistent Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I love to hang out at Mogwai Cinematheque (located inside Cubao Expo). You can chill out at their bar alone without looking pathetic. If it's your first time there, you'll have plenty of stuff to look at since it's worn out look is quite intriguing. The art pieces is also a conversation starter in case you find yourself in the posistion of stumbling upon another friendly stranger. If I'm not mistaken, they have Wifi there so you can bring your stuff and work while drinking a cold beer. I often go there to unwind, I'm on a first name basis with the staff there. PM me if you want to share a beer and a conversation Quote Link to comment

benfolds5 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I haven't finished back reading this thread, since my internet is toooo slow, but has anyone suggested or tried out Stone House Tavern along E. Rodriguez Avenue? It has a nice pub/ lounge atmosphere, kulang na lang yung mga English pub-type booths. It also has live music every night, around 9pm onwards, where they play mostly standards, jazz, lounge, and pop music, with open mic nights on weekends so you can jam with them if you're inclined to.

Mango Man Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Yup, this place doesn't look very nice, but overall its' okay.the bossa nova princess, Sitti, used to perform here, before she became famous.

ConsistentlyInconsistent Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 seems nice... how much is their beer? SML-35Red Horse-40 Cubao Expo is deemed as the "New Malate". A lot of artists, directors and photographers hang out there because of the laid back atmosphere. There was even a time when smoking pot was done in one of the alleys (but Cubao Expo became a hotspot so the area toned down) I did several events there for RockEd Philippines and other organizations way back during my activist haydays. Anyway, I hope I shared some newfound information Quote Link to comment
ConsistentlyInconsistent Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 heard the place is art deco and full of nostalgia pieces. So right. There was a shop there that carried old furnitures, toys and gadgets of the 70's, 80's and 90's. Too bad it's already closed (Vintage Pop). There are other interesting botiques there thou like The Reading Room and Sputnik. Check it out Quote Link to comment
RED2018 Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Try Old Spaghetti House and Limelight @ Sumulong Hway, Antipolo They have secluded deck overlooking the nearby lower based cities/areas. They're dimly-lit, well-interiored, classy ambience,and 'below-zero' beers. Quote Link to comment
maldita_overload Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Try checking out VOTRE (see address on my sig). The food and drinks are reasonably priced. Also, you won't feel out of placed, even if you go there alone. Quote Link to comment
