Experience beer pairings, comfort food, and live entertainment at Apartment 1B’s newest branch in Arthaland Century Pacific Tower, Bonifacio Global City.
Bonifacio Global City, April 25, 2025 — There’s a new energy brewing in BGC. Apartment 1B, long celebrated for its elevated comfort food, has officially opened its newest location at the Arthaland Century Pacific Tower — and it’s not doing it quietly. In partnership with award-winning craft brewery Elias Wicked Ales & Spirits, Apartment 1B is kicking off its BGC chapter with a dynamic three-day Grand Opening Weekend.
The atmosphere is electric: the clink of glasses, the aroma of sizzling bar chow, and the unmistakable sound of someone belting out a rock anthem fill the air. It’s day two of the festivities, and tonight’s main event is Rockeoke Night — where guests are invited to take the stage, grab a pint, and belt out their favorite tunes.
This new branch marks a fresh chapter for Apartment 1B. By day, the space operates as a relaxed café, but by late afternoon, it transforms into a vibrant full-service bar. This evolution deepens the brand’s signature comfort food experience with a more social, spirited twist — thanks largely to its collaboration with Elias Wicked Ales & Spirits, one of the Philippines’ most exciting craft breweries.
It’s a partnership that feels both natural and inspired. Apartment 1B brings nearly two decades of culinary trust and flavor to the table, while Elias Wicked Ales infuses the experience with creative, award-winning brews — including multiple gold medals from the 2024 Asia Beer Championship. Together, they deliver a dining and drinking experience that’s thoughtfully crafted yet refreshingly approachable.
Chef Nikko Roa, Corporate Executive Chef of Apartment 1B, immediately saw the potential for something special. The Arthaland location, originally envisioned as a flexible café and event space, evolved into something more dynamic. By curating a selection of Elias brews, the venue found its perfect complement — effortlessly blending great food, local flavors, and community energy into one unforgettable experience.
“There’s something special that happens when food and beer are crafted to be in sync,” shares Raoul Masangcay, founder and head brewer of Elias Wicked Ales & Spirits. “We wanted the pairings to feel effortless — like they were always meant to be together. Working with Chef Nikko and the Apartment 1B team was a natural fit from day one.”
The Grand Opening Weekend launched Thursday with an open mic night, setting the tone for the days ahead. Friday’s Rockeoke Night is all about letting loose, while Saturday promises an epic food and beer pairing party, complete with a DJ spinning the best of the ‘90s and Y2K hits. Each evening delivers a unique vibe, all tied together by local craft beer, elevated comfort food, and a celebration of community.
To sweeten the experience, Apartment 1B x Elias is offering 20% off all bar chow and nibbles, plus a P999 unlimited drinks on tap promo throughout the grand opening weekend — the perfect excuse to sample as much as you can.
While this new venture signals an exciting evolution for Apartment 1B, it’s not about reinventing the brand. Instead, it’s about expanding the ways people can enjoy the things they already love — comfort food, great beer, and good company. For Apartment 1B and Elias Wicked Ales, it’s all about creating more memorable moments: shared meals, clinking glasses, spontaneous songs, and nights that turn into lasting memories.
Apartment 1B x Elias Wicked Ales & Spirits is now open at the 6th Floor, Arthaland Century Pacific Tower, 5th Avenue corner 30th Street, Bonifacio Global City.
Operating hours are Monday to Saturday, 10AM to midnight.
Guests are encouraged to capture and share their experiences using #Apt1BxElias, #RockeokeNight, and #GrandOpeningWeekend.
