Cocktail Bar × Kitchen

THE DOOR — 01

Welcome Inside.

SULOD means "inside" — and that's exactly what we're inviting you to do.

SULOD Cocktail Bar × Kitchen is a community-driven gathering place where creative cocktails, bold food, music, and hospitality come together. Inspired by Filipino, Creole, and global influences, we craft experiences that are thoughtful without being pretentious, elevated without losing their warmth.

We're a neighborhood bar at heart - a place for celebrations, first dates, late nights, and familiar faces. From our cocktails to our kitchen, everything we do is designed to bring people together.

Because at SULOD, it's never just about what's on the menu.

It's about who's around the table.

Welcome Inside.

The Dessert
Course.

Matelna Bakes logo — a lavender wordmark over a frosted cinnamon roll

Every dessert in the house comes from Matelna Bakes — a one-woman bakery we fell for at first bite. Ube in the brownie, pandan in the roll, a creole rum sauce over the cobbler: her sweets speak both of our languages.

She bakes, we plate, everybody wins. Save room, or don't — we'll box it up either way.

Brownie Points

Rich ube brownie, white chocolate chips, vanilla bean ice cream

Roll With It!

Warm pandan cinnamon roll, buttercream frosting, vanilla bean ice cream

Oh, Peach Please!

Peach cobbler bread pudding, creole rum sauce, vanilla bean ice cream
