Subic City (Subic Bay)

[WestCoast1]

Any updates on Subic?

I will be visiting Angeles at the end of September and was wondering if it's worth it to swing by Subic for a couple of days? This will be my first trip to the Philippines.

Appreciate any advice.

I will be visiting AC early October and have booked 2 days in Subic as well. I have been to both many times, though not since covid. If you're still around and care to meet up pm me.

Please see the-Cups recent post in the AC thread, regarding both AC and Subic, post #28008.

Not trying to be mean. But for a first time Angeles City / PI visit. I would scratch off Subic Bay; unless you want to share War stories with other "Special Forces" guys who are 65+. That's my experience at least. If you are younger stick with Angeles City.

Curfew has been lifted, a few more bars opening and more girls returning. Things are more expensive now as it is everywhere in the world. Bar fine averaging around 3 K which at todays rate is 57 USD for 2 to 4 hours and if you can find the right one you can keep her all night. The stunners might ask for a little more. Of course you can always haggle but are you going to fly for many hours then argue over 10 or 20 dollars? Up to you, Walking Street in AC is much higher than Barretto. Beers are now 70 pesos to 110 pesos. 1.35 to 2.10 USD. Plenty of hotels except for Filipino holidays. Open bars are as follows.
I think that is all of the Barretto bars. Many bars open on Baloy beach but none with girls Will cover food options soon. Some great restaurants now available in Barretto.

Excellent post.

Incidentally, how was the weather. The weather reports indicate pretty much constant rain until around July.

The weather was extremely hot when I was there, but there was very little rain.

Technically, the barfine includes full payment for both the house and the girl.

However, as others have said you can add a tip for good service. I emphasise tip, not payment. I've tipped zero before when it was warranted without consequence. Serveral hundred is normal. A thousand would only be if she stayed all night, most of the next day and was a delight to be with.

Enjoy. G.

P.S. Note that this doesn't apply everywhere. On Burgos, girls expect their full payment in the morning and several other areas work the same.

I only tip 1000 for 3 holer. 500 for good service, meaning 2 rounds at night and one in the morning. 200 that's basically taxi money if no round in the morning and nothing if she leaves early, no BJ or only did one round at night.

I spent 3 days in Subic last week after a two year absence. I think I've started to prefer it to Angeles. It's shabby yes, but somehow more laid back and somewhat less sleazy than Angeles and the vibe is totally different. I had a decent beach view room a Arizona Hotel which had decent food, good service and a totally friendly atmosphere. I cannot remember the names of most of the bars I sauntered into and out of, but it was strictly business as usual with barfines ranging from Php2,500 to Php3,500 all in and the selection was substantial when considered in the aggregate. Unfortunately, flights from Davao to Clark have not yet resumed with PAL, so I had to fly into Manila, and then used my favorite driver to meet me at the airport for the drive up to Subic, which took about 3 hours. The attitude of the girls in the bars I visit was excellent. No one was wearing masks in any of the bars, nor were masks worn in the hotel, which after two years was a welcome relief. There were no hassles with the flights, during which everyone was masked as they were in the airports aside from in the restaurants.

I'm thinking my Angeles days may be done and, when I do go up to Pampanga it will be to Subic and that surrounding area from now on.

Question, does the bar fine include the girl's fee, or do you pay the fine for the club only and then you have to pay additional money to the girl?

Will create one soon, I don't eat out a lot so can only comment on first hand experience and references from friends. Will do the single monger eat places plus the take a date places from the best of my knowledge.

Bar Fine is all you have to pay but if a girl takes care of you and you don't give her anything that sucks. Now if she comes and quickly gets aggressive to get you off then leave fuck her. She got her bar cut and only wants to get back to bar fine again. The Barretto girls aren't as pretty as the AC girls but they are much more laid back. You have to decide what works for you. Subic girls average better service but less on the looks.

Beers are now 70 pesos to 110 pesos. 1.35 to 2.10 USD. Plenty of hotels except for Filipino holidays. Open bars are as follows.

Red Baron Pub in the Arizona resort. - 10-20 girls available, some hardcore ones and some lookers, onsite short time rooms or you can take her out.

The Hideaway - (Former Dive inn). A few girls, no bar fine here but they close early so you can stop in and if you see one you like you can arrange for her to meet you later.

Dynamite Dicks - A neat little expat hangout. Owner is there until 3 each day and will always buy your 2nd drink. Waitresses only, like The Hideaway they close early. Only a couple that would be worth meeting later. Different girls work different days.

MacArthurs - (Formerly Generals Command Post) - Tiny bar that closes early, worth a stop to see.

Blue Butterfly - (Old Toucan Bar) lots of girls there, changing every day. Take out available, some lookers.

Johnnys Resto bar - Not sure of the deal here, I have seen some pretty girls in front of there. They also have the occasional Bakla so if you aren't sure use the Crocodile Dundee method. Probably could do anything in there and nobody would care.

Coco Lips - Being remodeled, not sure when it will be open but soon.

The Curve - New bar with some girls, no bar fine available so you will have to work out when and where with the girl, probably on day off or after they close.

Chill -. Tiny new bar, take out available. Girls changing constantly so not sure of quality.

Cheap Charlies - Upstairs open air bar, some pretty girls. No direct bar fine, you must arrange with the girl.

The Annex - Local hangout for expats. The only bar that allows smoking inside. Not sure how as smoking is banned in all bars except open air bars, but somehow they do it. Some pretty bartenders but I think all have expat live in boyfriends or husbands.

Thumbstar - Constantly changing the lineup but one of the most popular bars in Barretto. All girls can be bar fined. Also has hotel so could be a one stop shop. Centrally located.

Luxe - The newest bar, haven't been inside yet. Not sure if girls can be taken out.

Adams Sports bar - Same as above but I think some type of arrangement can be made.

Gum leaves - Currently closed but supposedly opening soon as a live music venue.

Outback - Nice bar, pretty girls not sure of bar fine protocol.

Johns Steakhouse and Sushi bar - John was the owner of the Pub but the place was sold so he moved to a new location across the road from Shambolis Pizza. 2nd and 3rd floor, restaurant and sports bar. Great food, also good availability of imported meats, cheeses, and other food available as a grocery store. 3rd floor is billiards. Cute girls but no direct take out available.

IDM or It Don't Matter - (Formerly T rose) A locals hangout, good place for conversation with expats, also great food. Girls are waitresses only. Day off syndrome here also.

Voodoo - (old Crazy Horse building) girls there, take out available. Have not been inside so I don't know but have seen some pretty ones standing outside trying to persuade customers to go inside.

Bottoms Up - New location right beside Voodoo. Same as Voodoo, have not been inside.

The Hot Zone - My vote for the cleanest most well run bar in Barretto. Always adding new girls, owner always there, he keeps everything in order. Most girls are available for take out. 2,500 short time (2 hours) or 3,500 all night.

Barcelona - On top of Dryden complex. Entrance by where the Man Cave used to be. 3 long flights of stairs. Great view from the top but somewhat of a struggle after several drinks to go down all of those stairs. I think any girl you are interested in here you would have to work it out for later. I avoid, too many stairs but it is a nice bar.

The Green Room - (Former Rum Jungle) now a sports bar, many girls available. They have the drink passport which every time you buy a beer or drink for yourself you get a credit. After 10 your next is free and once filled you have a full night of drinking for half price. Cards never expire and can be used at any time. Best to fill it up then go back a different night and drink for half price. Lady drinks and drinks for other people cannot be applied. Some smoking hot girls there, bar fine is whatever you work out with her. No direct system.

Wet Spot - Next door to Green Room, many girls available. Same system as Green Room. Both are closed on Mondays.

The old Lolipop is now the Sit and Bull restaurant.

Alaska - Owner is finally back, new girls, pool tournaments, most can be taken out.

Rosies - Open with girls available for take out. Have not been there for a long time so no idea what is inside. Was a neat little bar on my last visit in 2020. It survived the pandemic so they must be doing something right.

The Old Winking Pussycat is now the Wild Herbs Thai restaurant.

Alley cat - is still open as a small sports bar. At least I think so.

Queen Victoria - Open as a sport bar, live music venue. Some pretty girls most are available for take out.

I think that is all of the Barretto bars. Many bars open on Baloy beach but none with girls Will cover food options soon. Some great restaurants now available in Barretto.

OK guys I did a little scouting tonight and can add these amendments.

Arizona Red Baron Pub. Only 5 girls at 8:30 PM, very aggressive, buy me a drink. I did like one and wanted to talk to her but a second girl I did not like would not give us space. Unless you are staying there write it off.

Blue Butterfly. Some pretty girls but way too much in your face "buy me a drink, buy me a drink" will never go there again but they do have some pretty girls.

The Chill. Some pretty girls, bar is about the size of a bedroom that could accommodate a King sized bed. Some lookers, 3 K bar fine. I was the only person in there.

Adams Sports Bar. Some pretty, sexy girls there but evidently buy me a drink and maybe later.

Luxe. OUT OF THE PARK BEST BAR HERE. Met some girls I had seen before, smoking hot ladies, dancers onstage, I did not see an ugly, nor overweight girl. Very friendly, place looks like is was designed as a palace in Aspen, Colorado. Only problem is it is down some somewhat steep stairs. Had 2 SMLs and bought a ladiy's drink, bill was 290 pesos. Under 6 dollars. My new hangout, 27 thumbs up. All girls can be bar fined for 3,000 pesos. I will make a trip to meet the owner but this is the new gem of Barretto.
