HYDE MANILA
Manila (Ermita) · Cocktail bar
Speakeasy with closet-door entry at Manila Prince Hotel. Pocket-friendly happy hour. Dramatic entrance. Hotel guests get free parking + snacks.
The Scene
You get in through a closet door. That's the entrance to HYDE MANILA, a speakeasy inside Manila Prince Hotel in Ermita, and it's genuinely fun the first time you do it.
The drinks are strong and nobody's going light on the liquor. Cocktails around P400, beer P240. Ask Russel behind the bar and he'll build it to whatever strength you want. Happy hour is cheap, Fridays especially. Food has been hit or miss in reviews, so check your order before you dig in.
Couples on dates, small groups, and hotel guests who wandered down. Quiet enough to talk the whole night.
