5 Hangout Spots You Can’t Miss When You’re in Poblacion, Makati

When you go to Poblacion, you don’t expect the sophistication of super clubs in BGC or of other establishments in more upscale parts of Makati. You won’t see spacious dance floors, bars with squeaky clean glass panels, immaculate interiors, or a valet attendant in uniform eagerly waiting to park your car. The place is often crowded, so consider yourself lucky if you easily find parking on a Friday night.

Poblacion is a small and modest neighborhood that comes alive at night with the multitude of patrons who have fallen in love with its cozy and kitschy charm. Every establishment in this food and culture hub has its own distinct character and offers an experience that you probably won’t find anywhere else. There’s a colorful variety to choose from: from galleries and coffee shops to concept bars and hole-in-the-wall restaurants. It’s impossible to pick an absolute favorite.
