ABV Bar in Scout Rallos, Quezon City, is quietly carving a niche as the go-to spot for low-key nights out. The speakeasy-style venue draws visitors with its intimate vibe and convenient location, providing a place where drinks are savored and evenings unfold at a relaxed pace. It’s a kind of place that reminds you what it means to slow down, sip well, and savor the night.
Located on the mezzanine of the Alphabase Building, finding it is easy. When you step inside the bar, you’re greeted by warm lighting and European-inspired interiors. The space strikes a balance between comfort and sophistication, making it ideal for date nights or small gatherings. Adding to the bar’s charm, the seating is cozy and can accommodate up to 40 guests.
During our visit last month, the first thing that caught our attention was the name. Asking co-owner Samuel Ng Suy what ABV stands for, he replied with a smile, “Guess what… Alcohol By Volume,” a playful hint at the bar’s focus on carefully crafted drinks.
The cocktail program builds on classic foundations, adding thoughtful twists that complement the cozy setting. Food also plays a starring role, with dishes designed to elevate the overall experience.
The menu features approachable yet refined dishes with subtle Japanese influences, such as chicken karaage, soft-shell crab bao, wagyu sando, and prawn bisque with ebi tempura. Portions are generous and designed for sharing.
For this month, ABV & Co. presents a six-course Valentine’s Tasting Menu crafted by Executive Chef Erick Toyama. Priced at P1,999 per person and available until the end of February, it allows diners to experience the bar’s elevated cuisine in a romantic, thoughtfully curated setting.
