Alegria Manila

Has a decent variety of cafes and restaurants, nice enough place for chilling out with friends. The food bazaar was interesting too, with some interesting food there. Tip: Avoid the tokboki. They say it's fish cake but in reality it's nothing but gluten. Most of the other food is decent though, especially the local street food. And the place is nicely lit up in the evening.

There are many high end brands and restaurants to choose from. You can stay up to 3:00am there i think but mostly some close at 1:00am. The place looks neat and many people come here during night time. The only downside is the parking space here in the streets. It's really crowded sometimes and they charge overnight fee during weekdays.

parking near palace and uptown parade area sucks. guards and staff will happily give you a ticket but neglect to inform you if it's full. make sure to roam for a spot in under 15 minutes before you waste 60 pesos

Best place to hang out with friends and family. During the weekend, the vibe is really cool and soothing.

BGC Uptown parade – is a great place to consider if you’re in the BGC area and is out for drinks with your friends. The GOOD: • There are a ton of restaurants, cafes and bars to choose from. • They even have specialty shops here. At one point there was a barbershop + bar hybrid here. • Great crowd. The BAD: • There is no common rest room here, you will have to go to the Uptown mall’s basement parking lot restroom if you need to take a leak.
