Entertainment in The Cordillera

  1. A

    Nevada Square

    This innocuous-looking collection of bars and clubs turns into one wild and crazy fraternity party on weekends, complete with shooters, bar sports and inebriated Filipina students dancing on tabletops until the wee hours. It can be pretty quiet during the week.

  2. City Tavern

    Live music is the name of the game at this creatively designed, open-air bar, a local favourite. Try to catch regular act Petune and its unique brand of tribal-infused reggae sung in various Cordillera dialects.

    Gimbal's

    This musty, seedy live-music venue in the Mount Crest Hotel has seen better days, but you can't beat the around P20 San Miguel from 18:00 to midnight.

  4. Persimoon Cafe

    Sagada’s only watering hole draws a good mix of local guides and out-of-towners, who discuss the day’s events over a San Miguel or 12.

    Red Lion Pub/Inn

    The 24-hour bar here is filled up with beer-swilling expats and travellers just about any time of day. It also serves good steaks.
