    Best for sound tripping. A place for fresh and rising indie OPM singers and bands. Good place for hangouts and meeting new peeps. Very underrated yet satisfying place to meet and greet new artists.

    In the decade I lived in Makati in the general area of SaGuijo, I've only been inside once. Welp, to be honest I thought I was going deaf that time. I was amazed how the others were totally okay, but to me it was really loud since the place was a little small.

    Amazing venue in Manila to see what's new in the music world. If you've never been here and you want to know Philippines/Manila music/bar culture, this is your place. I've performed here more than 50 times over the years and seen basically every good band in the region here at some point or another whether they were playing or just watching other bands, the who's who of the music scene go here to this quaint slightly hidden bar.

    After the pandemic, this has been my very first gig. The place was really accommodating. Good music, awesome bands, awesome people. Classic place for gigs. Air-conditioning is awesome.

    A well known venue in Makati for seeing the less well known bands. Small and loud, which is what you want from a rock bar. Food is OK, drinks are more expensive than they need be.

    Great place to watch local bands. Awesome atmosphere and amazing crowd!

  • 5/5 Jan L. 6 years ago on Google • 40 reviews
    A different kind of bar experience. It's a converted house in a residential neighborhood so it's like going to a house party. Always has live indie bands and different lineups every night. Can get very crowded when popular bands play but it is part of the experience.

  • 4/5 Thalia’s C. 4 years ago on Google

    Very unique place.

  • 2/5 David L. 6 years ago on Google
    Small venue with acoustic problem. It was hard to hear vocals over the drums and other instruments. You pay the cover charge which includes one drink. If you want a table, you should get there early. Otherwise you'll be standing. Food is below average.

  • 5/5 handee p. 4 years ago on Google
    Gives local indie bands an avenue for their music. Service is okay. Would recommend the place to people who aren't into cover bands and have an appreciation for raw alternative talent.

  • 5/5 Kit G. 4 years ago on Google
    great ambiance, good music. A place to go if you like indie music

  • 4/5 Anjie lou delos R. 4 years ago on Google
    Went here for the Marshall speakers event. Place is a bit small for events, but quite good for small gatherings. There's parking space too, enough for about 8-10 vehicles.

  • 5/5 Adrian 5 years ago on Google
    A boiling pot of OPM. It's a great place to see and hear the life of Filipino music! You'll get to see amazing talent here, which makes you proud to be Filipino.

  • 4/5 Moisam P. 4 years ago on Google
    There's a reason why all the well-respected artists perform here. It's the beating heart of the music scene here in the Metro. Different strokes for different folks, so make sure to check their super busy schedule daily!

  • 4/5 The G. 4 years ago on Google
    Classic place to watch young, indie, new and popular local bands. Beers & food are now expensive here! Some parts of the place should be improved and upgraded (ex. Comfort room).

👍👍 The best Indian restaurant in Manila, It’s been 4 years since I’ve been here. I am glad that I visited this restaurant again with my family. We didn’t reserve a table and the restaurant are packed. Thankfully the staff managed to give us a table for 11 people. Honestly the food still great at it is,...
