All about hidden bar Silong Lounge in Salcedo

Hidden bars have a reputation for not only having that “exclusive” element to them but for having entrances that are pretty tough to find. Silong is no exception. I’ll admit it: I always pass by the street where it is located but have never really thought much of it. For starters, its entrance leads you to a dingy parking garage — nothing too exciting, right? But further inside, you’ll be transported to one of Salcedo’s best-kept secrets!

Here, you can sit by the bar and watch the baristas work their magic or relax among its cosy couches with a drink in hand. A typical evening in Silong usually comprises live jazz music, excellent cocktails, and overall great vibes.
