It happen right on the dance floor. I was there and someone stepped on my foot I asked the guy to apologize about it and he turns around and punches me as hard as he can right in the jaw. Literly right in front of the bouncer .The bouncer tells me I wouldn't mess with this guy. This guy is spending alot of money here and had VIP. I told him I want to speak to the manager and he's holding me there not letting me move or go anywhere. I asked him several times to let me go and I finally told him I wanna leave the place and he let's me go. I walk out of the bar and go to a police standing near by, they tell me that I have to walk to the police station and they can't leave their area by century mall. I told them by the time I get to the station the guy will have left. I then start walking to the police station. I finally get there and the police was very rude and loud with me, telling me I have to go to the hospital and make a report first and have medical proof that the guy did something to me I told him it was all on video at the club. He got very irritated with me and makes me give him my ID and takes a mug shot picture of me .And yelling at me telling me to sit down! I think right there that I'm going to jail at this point. I told him finally I would like to leave and go to the hospital. I take a taxi to the hospital which costs 100 pesos there and back .When I arrive at the hospital they take x-rays of my face and all costs for the hospital is 4,457 pesos so now I have my proof I go back to the police station and he calls some investigaters. They take me to the club and make them the manager of the royal club take me into the club and look at the video recordings from about 1am when this happend .You can clearly see that the guy punches me in the face. They said oh he pushed you .I'm like that's why my jaw is swollen almost shut and I have the ER paper saying I have a contusion on my Jaw. Bascailly the whole management team is laughing at me at this point. He says the guy is gone but do you wanna go up and take a look and see if he's still here? I said yes and as we are going up he is pointing out different people that clearly didn't look like the guy even bouncers there saying is this the guy that hit you? Smiling and being very sarcastic. Granted this has taken forever now to even get this far plus ruined my entire night and costing me all this money in the ER. After we walk around the place it is 3:45am at this point. I said the guy is not here. And I can't leave because there is some small Filipina girl to drunk to stand up and there is a bouncer girl that is dragging her and another guy behind her with her hands behind her back. I'm looking in shock as there are about 10 bouncers around her she is so drunk and weak they are yelling at her and the lady bouncer is kicking her. I just left went back to the police station and the police says we will keep you posted but the guy has left so nothing more we can do. I have lost all fiath in the justice system here and I will never ever go back to a club that treats people like animals. I would stay far far away from this place unless you wanna feel unsafe and nothing anyone can do for you and you may fall victim to their hard knock team they have there .shame shame shame Royal Club you guys are a real piece of work

As someone who doesn't frequent clubs, I enjoyed the entirety of my night at House Manila. I stayed until Lady Trinity's set. I ended up going home at 4 in the morning. Someone has to let loose once in a while. Last Friday (15th May), House Manila teamed up with radio station, Magic 89.9, to an event called "People from Ibiza." They invited DJ Oliver Schmitz who flew in from Ibiza to Manila for a one-night only event. There were many people in the club that night but I didn't feel so suffocated by it! It didn't feel like we were all forced to be huddled in a cramped space. It was refreshing to be honest. It did leave an impression on me and my friends and I have decided to come back some time soon. House was full of yuppies, models and creative folk. You're sure bound to meet an interesting lot (of people). I know I did!

If you want to get a couch, you need to have a reservation so you'll need to talk to one of their promoters because if you decided to go walk in, the line would probably be long! Also, they close the doors at 12 midnight (I think) so keep that in mind. They have a huge range of drinks to choose from. Wear upscale as much as possible because they won't let you in if you're dressed down or wear too casual clothes. Shorts and slippers aren't allowed when it comes to the guys. And they also ask for a valid I.D. just to make sure you're legal. It's a fun place to party with your friends!

Adolescents of every generation come here as if it were a coming of age tradition! Gone are the days of Embassy and Cuisine but hello Aracama and Prive! Like some things that haven't changed, "young adults" will be young adults, this place is packed on weekends and the alcohol doesn't stop. A few months ago my friends and I had no plans and decided to take our lolo and lola selves out for a spontaneous night. Randomly, we ended up in Aracama, with an open mind and a few drinks later we actually had more fun that we thought we would! It's funny how long we've gone from our high school and college nights of frolicking and partying but we definitely still got some left in us!

I am one of those who would wear matching pajamas on a Friday night, sip good tea while watching FRIENDS in my bed. However, I have found myself in the Fort Strip around 5-7 times now, not necessarily always drinking and partying, but also eating or just picking up my sister. But for those party people, the Fort Strip is a god-sent! It is lined with bars that serve beer and other booze colder than you ex-girlfriend's heart paired with heart attach inducing foods that surely screams YOLO. Famous spots here are Prive, Aracama, and Haze. If you're not into partying or is just craving for a late night food trip, Mercato Centrale is just a few blocks away and is open until the wee hours of the morning.

The bouncer, the cashier, the bar staff were all friendly and provided exceptional service. Even before heading in, making a reservation on Instagram was an easy experience.

The queens did not disappoint and besides the great staff, going to see them makes Nectar 100% worth every single peso. I can't wait to go back!

Let me be clear. This is not a dance club. It's really not even a bar in the sense that you can…read moresocialize and drink as a single tourist. The only dancers are the ones on stage. And "dancer" is used very loosely for a lot of them. The beefcake is ok to look at. But with all the muscles, it's really awkward to just watch them move to the beat. It hurts to watch. And when they take off their shirts, all you hear are the screams of little girls in the audience like it's a Chippendales club for straight women If you want to go for just a few drinks, don't expect to be able to stand anywhere to watch the entertainment or cruise for your fling that night. The tables are reserved for bottle service, which you have to book in advance. There is a cover charge equivalent to US $20 - this includes 2 drinks. Ok great. But the question has always been, where do you stand if you're just a visitor and you don't know about the table reservations?? Any little bit of extra space they might have is dedicated to the myriad servers they employ. It's not like you can stand casually at a bar the way you can at other bars/clubs So it's really for cliques of friends to occupy the tables that surround the stage, and definitely not a place to go to meet anyone new. That is fine if that's what you want Without a table reservation, you really feel like an outsider, and they say you can stand and drink your drink at a table, but you need to leave as soon as the people who reserved the table arrive It's basically dinner theater Don't get me wrong - the drag queens are good. If they weren't, they wouldn't have a RuPaul's Drag Race Philippines franchise Personally, I won't go back This place doesn't provide a good enough balance of worthwhile performances with talking to cute Filipino boys or travelers like us It's just sad that it's only one of maybe two gay establishments total in Manila

Manila is home to a super colorful LGBTQ+ community ranging from flamboyant outfits, conservative folks, and all in between. We were ready for performances and entertainment to blow us away. O'Bar in Ortigas Center has been around for several years now, it's been one of the more popular shows around. I've seen YouTube videos of Drag Race Philippines but haven't followed religiously like RuPaul's Drag Race, but when I see these ladies perform on stage, I know I'll recognize them. We planned on coming on a Sunday with a group of 5 of us, what we all agreed was purchase a bottle of alcohol and get a lounge VIP table. The club requires each person a cover fee which included 3 drink tickets. But with the price of a bottle, table rates are fully consumable which we planned on being out for a while. What surprised us the most was not only there was one round of production, after the GoGo dancers were complete with their number, another drag show came out in a whole new repertoire!
