If you’re looking for the perfect spot to unwind, bond, and engage in thrilling entertainment, Metro Manila’s latest buzz, Monza Barcade, is the place to be.
Don’t let the name fool you—it’s not just for F1 or racing enthusiasts.
This one-of-a-kind barcade is designed for everyone, whether you’re out on a date, spending quality time with family, or simply gathering with friends
for a fun night.
The Concept
Nestled in the heart of the city, Monza Barcade combines the pulse-pounding excitement of motorsports with the nostalgic appeal of arcade games and the laid-back vibe of a modern bar.
Inspired by the famous Monza racetrack in Italy, the barcade pays homage to the thrill of speed while catering to a wide range of interests. It’s the perfect blend of adrenaline and leisure, promising an experience like no other.
Actually, Monza came about from my family’s fondness for racing – shared the founder – We just kept going around the world, and we got inspired—maybe it’s time for the Philippines to have its own Formula 1 safe space.
As for the name? “Monza is a very old track, started back in the 1940s. Across the world, it’s known as the Temple of Speed. Even virtually, you can feel the thrill and excitement, just like racing it in real life.”`
Hub for All
What sets Monza Barcade apart is its universal appeal. Sure, it’s a haven for racing fans, with 16 top-of-the-line racing simulators and 12 regular racing rigs, including motion-powered setups that immerse you in the heart of the action.
But the magic of Monza lies in how it brings people together—whether you’re competing for the top score in classic arcade games or cheering on your kids as they race against virtual competitors.
“We tune our racing rigs as close to the real thing as possible,” the founder explained. “We adjust the settings to make them comfortable for our customers. The experience itself is as close to real racing as you can get. Monza Barcade is all about the experience.”
The establishment is family-friendly during the day, offering age-appropriate games and a lively but relaxed atmosphere.
As the sun sets, the energy shifts seamlessly into a sophisticated bar environment, perfect for date nights or catching up with friends over craft cocktails.
Drinks, Bites, and a Full-Throttle Experience
Monza Barcade offers the full sensory experience. The menu is packed with signature cocktails inspired by racing cultures, such as the Monza Circuit and Tokyo Drift. For food, the barcade offers elevated comfort dishes, from Chicken Karaage and Meatball Sliders to unique creations like Raceway Ribs and Nitro Wings. Also, their selection of Neapolitan Pizzas are some of the best that we have in the metro right now.
But it’s not just the menu that makes Monza special. People can look forward to not only our food and drinks but also great music. We have DJs every week. You don’t even have to race to enjoy—it’s just as fun to spectate!
