Southbank Cafe + Lounge Estancia

Coffee in the morning, cocktails at night. Southbank Cafe + Lounge at Estancia in Capitol Commons is both a cafe and a cocktail bar, and the inside is done up nicely for photos. Sit indoors if you can, the outside seats catch motor noise.

The drinks have stories behind them and the bartenders will explain if you ask. Start with the Banana Hypeball. The fresh fruit smoothies are good too, and the baked scallops are the food order. Cocktails around P400, beer P240.

Daytime it's people with laptops. At night it's couples and small groups, casual or a bit dressed up.
