Southern Sundowns: Spirited Evenings at ALIBI

Looking for the perfect place to unwind? Look no further: ALIBI has just what you need

It has been the habit of many southern Manila residents to stay in the city after hours to enjoy the capital’s vibrant nightlife, seeing how - up until recently - the southern suburbs offered relatively few quality options.

But this has changed over the past decade. The triangle comprising Las Pinas, Muntinlupa, and Paranaque has seen the emergence of excellent bars and restaurants offering everything from bespoke cocktails and a sumptuous selection of both local and foreign spirits, to excellent cuisine by renowned chefs and a truly relaxing ambience.

ALIBI Bar & Lounge, one of the latest additions to Chroma Hospitality’s growing range of food-and-beverage establishments, is one such venue where locals come to chill out and congregate from sundown to the small hours of the morning.

And, for good reason: much like the famed speakeasies of the Roaring Twenties in the last century. ALIBI offers a curated mix of house-crafted cocktails, a spirits library with prime examples from throughout the globe, and a menu of snacks prepared meticulously by some of the best culinary experts in the field, all served in a cool, elegant, atmosphere that is most conducive to relaxation, good conversation, and enjoyment.

So why brave the traffic, the discomfort, and the distance, when you can have it all right where you are? It’s time to discover the code - and that code opens the doors to a world of elegant indulgence.
