    The Curator, in particular, has won for the fourth consecutive year. Taking the 37th spot, this cafe-bar is well-loved by everyone as it seamlessly transforms from a simple cup of Joe in the morning to a humble speakeasy bar at night. It’s located just along Legaspi Street, Makati City.

    On the other hand, Oto ranked 47th, which is located in Poblacion, Makati City. They have excellent music apart from signature cocktails—and have we mentioned it’s also part-cafe?

    Finally taking the 50th spot is The Back Room, residing in the heart of Shangri-La at The Fort in Taguig City. It’s the newest to the list, and as a matter of fact, it only opened late 2018. Might as well drop by if you haven’t visited it as it surely has some exquisite cocktail to offer.
