Gimik Republik Manila

Gimik Republik Manila is at Bellagio Square on Tomas Morato Avenue, corner Scout Fuentebella Extension, in Quezon City. It is the Manila branch of a Filipino restobar that also has a Las Vegas location. The page describes Vegas energy and Pinoy barkada culture, and it is 18 and up only.

Music is the core of the place. The website lists live bands, acoustic sets, DJs and karaoke. Its event calendar shows The Itchyworms on October 30, the Glen Mapue Trio on November 3 and DJ Jams afterparty nights on November 4. The page features an open mic highlight, and the venue has its own theme song called Tara G. Friday posts tie into Shamrock themed nights with the Las Vegas branch.

The menu is Filipino bar food and drinks. The website and page do not post dishes or prices. One Google reviewer said staff were generous with service and mentioned a free beer round on Halloween, and the waiters were friendly. Ask about promos and group packages when you call, since specials change by night.

Bring ID because it is 18 and up. The venue is new, with about 1,000 followers and only a few Google reviews, so expect the crowd to grow. Call 0917 777 1986 or use the booking button on gimikrepublik.com to reserve a seat. No opening hours are posted, so check the event calendar for the night you want.
