ABV & Co. leans into cocktails, comfort food, and a Valentine's tasting menu away from the usual bar circuit

Along Scout Rallos in Quezon City, away from the more predictable bar clusters, ABV & Co. feels like a discovery.

Hidden on the mezzanine level of the Alphabase Building, the bar leans into a speakeasy mood. The room is dim but warm, compact without feeling cramped, and designed for conversation. It is a place that works best for dates or intimate get-togethers, where the pace is unhurried and the night moves slowly.

ABV officially opened in November last year and positions itself as a bar for socializing. With seating for roughly 40 guests, the atmosphere stays controlled, allowing for easy conversation even as the night stretches on. There is also a more private section for smaller groups seeking a quieter corner.
