At the center of The Attic is a menu of curated cocktails crafted by its mixologists, combining classic foundations with inventive signatures.
Among its standouts is the Mais Con Highball (Php 550), made with vodka, homemade corn liqueur, blended milk, soda water, and toasted corn, a drink shaped around childhood nostalgic summer flavors.

Another signature is Letters to My Ex (Php 550), featuring a clarified Negroni made with London Dry Gin, Campari, Rosso Vermouth, grapefruit, lemon, milk, and orange zest. One of the bar’s most recognized cocktails, it has become closely associated with The Attic’s identity, pairing technique with storytelling through a drink inspired by old love letters tucked away in an attic.

That storytelling extends to the bar’s latest cocktail menu, My Life in Eight Cocktails, a collection developed after months of work and presented as a storybook of experiences translated into drinks. Each cocktail draws from real-life memories from the early 2000s to 2018 in Manila, with signatures created by Henry, Troy, Joseph, and Mimay.
The menu itself is available for purchase, allowing guests to take home the illustrated cocktail book as a keepsake in addition to experiencing the drinks at the bar.
