Manila Pub Crawl in Makati
Get ready to spice up your night and experience the Filipino way of enjoying the nightlife in Poblacion, Makati, which is the best area for nightlife in Metro Manila. It’s a safe pub crawl tour for locals and tourists, allowing you to explore the Filipinos’ exciting culture and meet travelers from all around the world. Some of the bar locations are also traditional Filipino-inspired, where tourists can taste and enjoy our famous “pulutan” or foods traditionally consumed while drinking in the Philippines.
Who would have thought that this small neighborhood has so much to offer? Poblacion is the first settlement in Makati City. Today, this neighborhood has many historical buildings, markets, old houses, and government buildings. Besides these pieces of fascinating history, Makati is known today for its lively streets and being the home to backpackers’ lodgings.
There are multiple bars in Poblacion, each with a different vibe, so you could try a new spot every weekend and never get bored! These Makati bars respect the classic Philippine architecture and flavors, serving modern Filipino food with dishes such as adobo (vinegar-braised meat) and pork sisig (chunked-crispy pork with eggs). You can also enjoy an assortment of Filipino fusion dishes and hard drinks by the glass or by the bottle.
Admire Makati bars’ rare beer, cocktail bottles, and their paraphernalia, great for taking pictures or just enjoying the great vibe of these establishments. Dance to the beat of the various music genres and get a chance to catch performers while the night is still young! Although it was challenging to condense this list, we have discovered a place for every type of drinker for Makati Pub Crawls.
