Marikina

Marikina goes out on its own terms — riverside, relaxed and easy on the wallet. The action splits between Mayor Gil Fernando Ave (restobars, live-band grills and the genuinely good craft cocktails at Bar by East), the leafy Lilac Street food strip, and a string of family KTVs. Less scene, more neighbourhood — come for a chill barkada night that won't wreck your budget.
