Sleek interiors include plush seating options for groups of friends or family and floor to ceiling windows allow natural light to brighten up the entire space. The restaurant also has an al fresco dining area for those who want to enjoy the fresh outdoor air. At night, it provides an inviting ambience as you can dine amid twinkling lights and refreshing greenery. It serves as a great place to wind own after a long day's work, or a bustling week.

If you're looking for a place to entertain or have private dining events, the restaurant also has a second floor, which houses an ideal space for such. With a glass-encased event space, the area is versatile and provides the perfect canvas for social gatherings. We absolutely love the room where a long table is set up—imagine all the amazing brunches you can have here!

Founded in 2006 by Chef Marivic Diaz-Lim, Apartment 1B was born out of a dream to create a restaurant that offers the comforting familiarity of home-cooked meals. Chef Marivic's vision took shape with a menu carefully crafted from the finest ingredients, showcasing a selection of dishes that have since won the hearts and palates of loyal customers. You can expect to be served the same, if not better level of culinary excellence at this amazing new branch! If you find yourself missing the restaurant's classic favorites such as Steak & Eggs, Pizzeta, or Herb-Crusted Salmon anytime soon, you know what to do—book a table STAT!

Now that Manila is bustling with more options for plant-based, vegetarian, and vegan lifestyle enthusiasts, Apartment 1B BGC joins in on the demand by launching its first-ever menu that includes delicious nutrient-dense, plant-based dishes bursting with flavor! Don't forget to try their Tofu Spinach Scramble, or Tofu Teriyaki with Adlai—these are insanely delicious! Apart from mains, you can also enjoy power-packed smoothies made with the freshest fruits and vegetables, plus superfoods to empower you to live your healthiest life! The plant-based menu was designed by Chef Marivic and Chef Nikko of Apartment 1B, together with Cinty Yñiguez, one of the BGC branch's partners and plant-forward lifestyle & wellness consultant.
