Didn't have food. Had a few drinks and refereed midget boxing. By the time it's all said and done you're going to spend $100 usd because then i hit you up for shots after you're done. What is definitely a great environment a good time and i would do it again!

They accept walk-ins and don't require you to pay any entrance fees because their drinks are heavily overpriced and their main thing is to make sure you're continuously drinking and ordering so that you could keep your seat. If not, then they'll tell you that you have to go. They prolong shows before they get to the "midget boxing" part of things, a routinary dance, their performers going around before every other round to ask for tips and shots, regardless if you had given them any the first time. Even then, the fights are more comical, and if you're a tourist just wanting entertainment and eager to blow some money, then this place would be great. As locals, it was underwhelming and overwhelming at the same time, we left the place feeling indifferent. Business as usual as they'd say, their waitresses turn snobby as soon as you tell them you're leaving. Hope they're making enough bank and paying their people well.

Was at Bottoms Bar connected to them by both location and managed by the same people. They literally when ordering a lady drink tell you that you can order one, two or three shots. Then that ordering three shots means the girl sits longer. Seems fair and rational. It's a complete lie. They bring her one San mig apple beer and charge almost 1400 pesos for it. The place is a scam. What they do is likely illegal. It's literally stealing. Sad, the atmosphere was fun, until we realized we had been scammed. I'm not at all a cheap charlie. I'm in Manila for 3 days and had budgeted for around 40k pesos a day, which is not small money. But the audacity of being scammed pissed me off so much I will never in my life return to Manila with the exception of having to use their airport. These people should lose their liqueur and business license. Complete scam artists criminal losers.

Good show. Staff are scammers. If you dont pay attention what you order and keep saying yes you will come out with a huge bill.
