Bar by East

$ $ $ $   |   Marikina, Philippines

Architecture firm by day, cocktail bar by night—a well-loved watering hole in Marikina City, Philippines

 

Nestled in Marikina, Bar by East is a sophisticated neighbourhood gem where thoughtful design meets nostalgic mixology. Designed by Emerging Architects Studio and actually housed in their creative hub, the intimate bar seamlessly transitions from a working space during the day to a refined cocktail destination by night. Co-owner and industry veteran Rian Asiddao and head bartender Wendell Almenario lead a passionate team, crafting balanced drinks inspired by Filipino childhood flavours. As the bar prepares for a move to a larger Marikina home, its community- focused spirit continues to thrive.
