(SPOT.ph) The Spirits Library may have just opened in 2019, but it’s already an institution of the Poblacion drinking scene. This spacious bar and its double-height ceiling features a wall full of glistening bottles, wooden accents, and a dramatic chandelier to round out the theater-like feels. We named it among the Metro’s most beautiful bars for a reason, after all. And don’t worry, this bar matches looks with substance, especially with renowned beverage expert and bar consultant Lee Watson at its helm. They specialize in cocktails and mixed drinks; while they do have a set menu of six drinks, you’re more than encouraged to pull up to the bar, chat with their friendly mixologists, and walk away with a drink that’s fully curated for you.
