This tiny, yet elegant hole-in-the-wall is elevating the gastronomic options of Dumaguete to new standards, with their authentic tapas bar atmosphere, very good food and inexpensive cocktails. Stepping into Allegre feels like stepping into a little piece of Spain on what used to be the Philippines' most attractive seafront Boulevard. There's not much room inside but sitting at the bar is perfectly fine, sitting outside is a bit marred because traffic has become quite ridiculous here recently.

Read moreReview of Allegre Bar and Restaurant Allegre Bar and Restaurant is nicely located on Rizal Bouleward and comes with sea view. The competition is fierce in this end of the Bouleward, since Allegre is located just beside Honeycomb and Why Not and they all attract many customers specially in the evenings.
Fully recommended! Aside from beer and drinks in the bar, Allegre serves tapas, steaks, pasta and pizza. We ordered chicken fried with onions and squid cooked in its own ink. The food was delicious and the staff was friendly and helpful. More good things, the prices were reasonably, they had WiFi and the comfort room was clean. So Allegre Bar and Restaurant is fully recommended!

When in town, must drop by and have a tipple or eight and...
