Located right beside Lit Manila, the Lab focuses more on wine and cocktail pairings. While both Lit and Lab have the same food menu, the Lab’s is perfect for day drinking and having a couple sips while talking to your friends.

Chotto Matte
If you’re looking to hang out with workmates or friends on a Friday night, head to Chotto Matte for Japanese food and great drinks. They have a happy hour from 3 pm to 7 pm, offering unlimited gin and tonic.
We also recommend trying the classic Japanese highball whisky. It comes in different flavors and mixes from Filipino Tanduay rum to tequilla and a whole lot more.

A classic bar in BGC, Coconut Club is for everyone, from office workers looking to unwind to college kids pre-gaming. It is one of the most affordable and less intimidating bars in the area and is great for those trying to party or drink in BGC for the first time.
We recommend trying the pineapple rum, lime mojito pitcher, and their chili infused vodka.
