We’ve been cooped up for a few weeks and it looks like we’re going to be indoors for a bit more. All the stress and uncertainty is certainly making everyone thirsty (the liquor ban is not helping). While we encourage everyone to adhere to restrictions and experiment making cocktails in their own homes, sipping on cocktail creations from our favorite bars is something we all miss. Thankfully, there are some bars that are now offering cocktail pickup and delivery for those in search of a good tipple. 

Run Rabbit Run

Cocktailing at home has just gotten easier. Your favorite Alice in Wonderland-inspired bar in Poblacion now offers infused bar-quality cocktails you can mix at home. Run Rabbit Run, which was voted Best Bar of 2020 by Philippine Tattler T.Dining, has a selection of collaboration, classic, and signature cocktails that you could have delivered right to your doorstep.

Place your orders on their website and they’ll take care of it for you. Whatever you’re thirsty for, you’ll be able to find it. The cocktails are good for five servings, and each kit comes with garnishes, instruction guides, RRR’s signature coasters, and a personalized letter. Price starts at Php 1,500, while more premium collaboration cocktail kits go for up to Php 2,350. They’ll take care of shipping and have also set it up so you can send a cocktail kit to one or two of your buddies in the same order. RRR delivers these tasty treats every Friday afternoon, perfect for welcoming the weekend.

If you’d like to show your love, you can also purchase gift cards that you can use once the bar reopens (they’ll add a 20% bonus on top, and they do not expire and can be transferred to others) and buy their merch. When you purchase their limited edition graphic tee (Php 1,500), not only are you showing your support to a beloved watering hole, you’ll also get free shooters at the bar each time you wear it.

The Back Room’s famous The Bee's Knees Gin and Tonic Experience

The Belle & Dragon and Mandalay 

The Belle & Dragon on C. Palanca Street and its speakeasy whisky and cigars bar Mandalay offers packaged classic cocktail ingredients for you to mix at home. Small packets of spirits, mixers, and garnishes are prepared fresh for convenience. Prices may vary depending on the range of spirits used as the base, so The Belle & Dragon’s cocktails are priced at Php 300 and Mandalay’s cocktails go for Php 450 since they use premium brands. 

Cocktail lovers can take advantage of cocktail bundles (5 for Php 1,200 and 10 for Php 2,000 for Belle, and 5 for Php 2,200 and 10 for Php 4,000 for Mandalay), and whisky drinkers who want to get their hands on some top-shelf bottles will be pleased to know that Mandalay also has whisky bottles for sale. 

Place your orders by sliding into their DMs. There’s a 2-day lead time and the pick-up schedule is on Tuesdays and Thursdays. They do offer delivery (for a fee) only in areas with no liquor ban. 

 


DrinkManila will keep updating this list. If you know of other establishments offering drinks for delivery or pick-up that you would like to include on the list, please send the complete information to [email protected].
