The atmosphere is fun. I liked the menu and concept of the drinks. However, the drinks were only so-so. The teapot spilled a good portion onto the table. Be warned there is no food.

Meh. We didn’t like the drinks. They were too strong and as well as expensive. We didn’t drink even half of our drinks. 😞 There wasn’t any much room for you to move around. But the place gives you a harry potter library vibe.

The vibe is dark, cramped, and topped off with really good drinks. Service was great and bartenders are very knowledgeable about their drinks with many elements being made in house. Definitely one of my go tos in Pobla now. Be sure to reserve before going or you might find yourself standing near a wall for an hour or so.

This place was such a fun surprise for my buddies and I! We've been hopping around the city for a couple of hours prior, looking for an upbeat and lively spot, but also with a chill vibe. The crowd is eclectic and a great mix. We were very lucky to have three spots right at the bar on a Friday night. The resident band was playing that night and they performed right behind the bartenders. It felt like you were watching an awesome local band playing at a small venue. And you were right at front of stage, except there's a bar between you and the band and a league of really friendly and good mixologists :-) It was quite a unique experience and it was really fun and the staff are incredibly nice people. They were so welcoming and warm. I only cared for beer and whisky that evening and I was thoroughly satisfied and would certainly go back again. I can't say much about their food or cocktails, but the options they had were very interesting and definitely worth the try and curiosity.

This place is quite a delighter but I could be biased. I was in the "detention room" which is a tucked away man cave with perhaps the widest range of whisky, brandy and rums I ve seen in Manila. The owner himself is a great host and loves talking about drams while we sipped on some Arran 18 Scotch. Only downside if you are gluttonous kinds while drinking alcohol, then there are no food options. But delighter again was that they have their own resto across the street and got us wagyu cubes in less than 30 mins. The bartender "Nima" was humble, curious and great with service. She knows her whisky too 😉... All in all super impressed. Going back there soon!

This is the most Tito/Tita bar that I've been to so far in Poblacion. They were pumping 90's to ealry 2000's songs which gave that homey feeling. The place is beautiful. There's an actual giant library-grade bookshelf. The service was pretty good and so are the cocktails.
