This bar came up on a list of "secret" bars listed in the BGC area so I decided to visit.

Be aware that there is a dress code so shorts are not accepted. I was refused entry on the first occasion.

It's a task to find the entry. First one must enter the RCBC Savings Bank Corporate Centre and pass through security. You then go to the right and enter the 7-11 store. Once inside look for an unassuming unmarked door to the left.

Once inside you are transported back in time to a well decorated cocktail bar. I arrived just after 5pm and was the only guest.

I enjoyed a few of their specialised cocktails. Mine had gin, ginger-ale and rosemary but unfortunately I forgot the name. They have an impressive snack list but I just opted for Prawn Crackers with a spicy vinegar dip.

Bar staff were friendly and a good place to have some cocktails.

This is another of the great hidden bars of Manila. This one has its entrance inside a mini-mart. But once you're through there you arrive in a fairly happening bar. Decent list of cocktails to choose from. Friendly service. We were lucky to get a table as we didn't have a reservation, but fortunately they let us use a table as the reservation hadn't yet arrived. Worth another visit.

This is my new favourite bar. Hidden away in a convenience store, finding it and getting into is an experience in itself. Once you draw back the curtain though, you find an amazing little oasis in BGC. I absolutely love this bar. The staff are so friendly and so helpful. The drinks are amazing, and their happy hour is fantastic! Its not a massive bar, which is good. Upon researching this bar, subsequently everything about why this bar was built is what i look for in a bar now. Comfy seats, great drinks selection, cracker cocktails, delicious food, table service and music not too loud so you can actually hold a conversation yet good music selection also. Top work to the owners. This is definitely my new local...

Door man a goon with attitude demands big bribes to get in! When bribe was agreed upon he then demanded more money! So cant comment on club itself or owner at this time. We came in with our usual blazers, dress shoes, and our ladies wore nice evening gowns. Must be why the thug wanted more money even the security below where surprised but then said that's how he is wants bigger money to get in depending on guest
Seems like a crooked place. Being hidden behind a 7-11 tells it all.

A dress code is fair enough, how you go about enforcing it is another matter! The doorman wasn't sure about our footwear so went to fetch a member of staff from inside to check, and the look of utter disgust i received before being turned away was laughable to say we probably had more money on our feet than he earned in a month. Couldn't help but sense this is the running theme in pretentious, plastic BGC... No style, no substance.

Mediocre bar with little to redeem it aside from the ‘secret’ entrance.

Tired cocktails and rude entrance staff.

I was told Manila was newly hip but left bored and unimpressed.

It was my only hidden bar, so I may be biased, but it was an amazing experience. The entrance through the 7-11 store, the atmosphere, the drinks, all is perfect. Check the door handles at the bathroom :)

Had friends visiting from the UK so thought we'd take them here for their last night. Got there and they stopped my female friend stating it was because she was wearing "slippers", in fact she had sandals on... so I went in and saw people wearing flip flops... only difference between us was the colour of our skin... you decided if you want to give your business to a racist establishment!

Found this bar accidentally when i was looking for simcard at 7eleven. 2 big guys stand in front of door made me curious so i just enter the door right away. I ordered some signature cocktails ended up with G&T. Looking for snacks, Truffle Skinny Fries is a good pair with your idrinks! This place is good for groups or a solo like me. Music getting loud during late night. Loved the way they didn’t play commercial music.

A tidy little bar tucked away that can only be entered via a 7-11. The bar itself is quite dark and has several tables with comfortable chairs - probably not suited to large groups nor roust clientele
