Jameron Electronics bar in Manila, what's the deal?
Went on a Saturday around 10 and it was packed, so go earlier if you want a seat.
Weeknights after 9 are usually calmer, though Friday still fills up fast.
It's a bar. The name is just the old electronics shop sign.
ah that makes sense, kinda like how teh sign just stayed up after the shop closed. good to know it's a real bar tho.
Yeah the old sign is part of the charm now. It sits on a stretch where a few other spots kept their original shopfronts too, so the name fits the street. Worth a stop if you're nearby, not really a destination on its own.
Second the "not a destination" bit, the street itself is the draw.
Fair, but the electronics sign is newer than the bar itself, they just never bothered changing it.
Right, and the sign predates the current owners by a couple of decades, which is why nobody's touched it. Ask the bartender about the old shop if you go, he tells it better than I can.
makes sense. i've only been once, on a thursday, and tbh i walked past it twice because the sign looks like an actual repair shop. do they still keep any of the old stock inside or is it all stripped out?
Only caveat is the sign still fools Grab drivers, so tell them to look for the doorway past the sari-sari store.
best cheap eats at Mouthwatering Food Center Manila 2026?
last time i went the sisig stall near the entrance was the move, around 80 to 120 pesos, skip the drinks stands
yeah the sisig is solid but grab the lechon kawali from the next stall over, 150 pesos and worth it over the drinks for sure
Agree on skipping drinks but the turon stall by the back exit is 20 pesos and worth saving room for.
is it turon or banana cue though
Good call on skipping teh drinks, they're overpriced for what u get. But tbh the sisig portion got smaller when I was there, so maybe grab the lechon kawali too. Budget around 120 to 150 for a full meal.
that sisig stall is def the move, tbh. i'd add the kakanin stand a few stalls down, maja blanca for like 40 pesos. u think prices will stay the same in 2026 or go up?
