Literally get high and see the city like you’ve never seen before from five of the chillest rooftop joints – 5 Hidden Rooftop Bars with Amazing City Views. From low key grill houses to art gallery turned late night bars, we’ve scoured the streets to find the best elevated spots with a flawless backdrop of Manila’s skyline.

Fat Butchik’s

The South’s newest hangout, grill house Fat Butchik’s is located along BF Homes’ El Grande Ave. Sitting on the top floor of a three-story building, the 40-seater hole-in-the-wall offers a beautiful uncluttered view of Manila’s sunset. With soothing lanterns hanging above, the warm glow of the lights exude a chill vibe perfect for drinks after sundown.

Sky Deck View Bar

Rising nine floors above the historic town of Intramuros, boutique hotel The Bayleaf Intramuros’ rooftop restaurant Sky Deck View Bar, is the alternative choice to a boisterous night out. Away from the flashy city lights, you can relish an unobscured 360-degree view of Old Manila, as an acoustic live band serenades you on Fridays and Saturdays.
