Wineshop
Cheery, welcoming and unpretentious, with a mixed crowd of Filipino and foreign clientele, this Spanish-owned place is hands down our favourite Cebu City hangout. There's no videoke or blaring sound system, just the convivial hum of conversation. The kicker is the wine selection, including an eminently drinkable Spanish house red that goes for just around 60 a carafe. They also do reasonable set meals around 180 .

Casino Filipino
If highrolling's your thing, then Casino Filipino at the Waterfront Hotel is for you. If not, the place is still worth a look if only for the mechanical horse-racing machine, the fake night sky of the main gaming room, and the spellbinding ceiling mural in the foyer - a 50m-by-30m recreation of explorer Ferdinand Magellan's world map.

Ratsky
A smooth bar where hip young things head to at night for a drink (San Miguel around 70 ) and to hear live music. Pasta, sushi, burgers and oysters are on the menu. Enter by the door 50m south of the corner of Mindanao Ave and Bohol St. If Ratsky doesn't do it for you, there are other bars in Ayala. Dress code applies and the admission price entitles you to one free beer.
