Spread the love

With so many restaurants and bars to choose from on the bustling streets of Poblacion, Makati, one restaurant/diner stood out among the rest with it’s attention-grabbing neon lit facade that and that is the FILLING STATION BAR CAFE.

I’ve been wanting to visit this place for a long time and since we had some friends from New Zealand visiting, what a better way to cap off their trip than a nice restaurant in the city and we thought of Filling Station in Poblacion Makati.

While waiting for the sunset, we decided to have some cocktails at City Garden Hotel. I remembered this hotel because we stayed here before. This is also where we parked our car for the night. After a few cocktails at Encyma Rooftop Bar while waiting for sunset and city lights, we then started our very short walk to P. Burgos where you will find this eye-catching luminous diner called Filling Station. It’s so pretty and inviting, everybody who sees it will definitely want to give this diner a try.

If you find the outside interesting, wait till you get inside the diner. It was unbelievable! When we walked up to the diner, we were shocked by what we saw. The amount of detail that was put into this diner was over the top and at the same time beautiful.

Filling Station Diner 50’s Vibe

This place would definitely bring you back to the 50s era where vintage cars, the interiors, old posters, other collections, they were immense. So I would advise, before you sit, do walk around and just appreciate the bits of history that surround this diner.

It wasn’t too busy when we arrived so we got a seatt very easily. They handed us the menu and can I just that all the dishes looked delicious. May I also add that the staff were also very friendly and always smiling. That makes a difference too overall!

We ordered some Long Island Teas to start with and other cocktails. Then we decided, instead of ordering main courses, to order a selection of the best starters they could offer.

Filling Station’s Starters

We asked them about their best selling appetizers they’ve got and told us the following. I must admit at first that maybe it wasn’t enough but when we saw the servings specially the nachos, we felt that this was enough to fill our tummies and it did. They all tasted so good!
