Cafe hopping is a whole hobby on its own as it is more than just the coffee that makes people keep coming back or have a visit in the first place.
It is everything that the cafe presents, the lighting, the vibe, the interior, the location, the windows, the food, and for sure how your orders are served.
Now, have you ever come across a day-and-night concept? Well, we have just discovered one with a whole different vibe right here in Cebu City as a cafe and its secret bar.

The Hidden Room 18
Dark and mysterious just like how a hidden bar should be. Room 18 gives off this subtle bold aura that only a secret bar can do with its statement art and neon lights.
Room 18 started during the last quarter of 2021. The bar was originally opened as an exclusive lounge that’s accessible only by fingerprint registration.
Its name signifies legality where you are allowed to party and drink, and it’s called a ‘Room’ because of its size. The space is roughly the size of a room making it more intimate and private for a more exclusive bar experience.
You’ll have an immense variety of bottled liquor, cocktails, and bar chow. The signature items are the ‘Secret Drink Cocktail’ and ‘Crispy Long Potatoes with Shoestring Camote’.
More added treats to look forward to at Room 18 are the highly talented DJs and the bar’s dedication to providing a unique party experience for patrons. Gear up for monthly party themes and appearances by famous artists and DJs making your party experience worthwhile.
Romm 18 also accepts bookings for private parties, mobile bar events, and long-term reservations.
Both of these places are great and should be on your list of new places to try this 2023.
