Super easy to order and pay online, then do curbside pick up or if you live downtown, get delivery! Manifest has our favorite mixed drinks (try the Woody or the Day By Day), and sliders and paninis. My friends and I would love going down there for pau hana whiskey and look forward to doing that again when its safe!

This place is great! Its a smaller dive bar but feels bigger than it is. They usually have live bands and restrooms are available. The mixologists really know what theyre doing here! Youll be amazed at how flexible and creative the servers can be when making your cocktails. We were mesmerized watching the creations as they were poured to perfection. I really enjoyed having a few drinks here and listening to the live music.

I would suggest this place to the younger crowd or the people who want to go out with friends or that new someone and take them dancing. The service is fast even during peak hours. Closes late for those who are night dwellers. Its one of the inner city night clubs that most likely dont attract tourists but where youll find locals and service members. Its not one of the fancier night club that you might find in Waikiki. More along the lines of the rustic vibe but with good music, dancing and alcohol.Now the parking is street, if you can find one, and a lot a few minutes down the street. Pay to park of course. The neighborhood might be a bit unnerving to some but it is safe. Just remember to stay with a group or friend for safe measures. And any driving service can pick you up right outside the venue so theres no need to go to far from the crowd.For those wanting a little night life of fun, dancing and responsible drinking this is a great place to head to.Mr. Carlyle

What they do here, they do right. Coffee is amazing, whiskey selection is unbelievable, and tea is old school with but jars of loose leaf, proper strainers, individually prepared. Plus, the space is airy industrial. Very happy we found this place, will absolutely come again.

Great selection of drinks, from cocktails and beers to coffee. A chill place to grab something to sip on during the day

Very nice Cafe in Chinatown with an incredible vibe, you must stop there to have something to drink.

My first time ever drinking! My friend took me here and I am sure that I prefer my alcohol sweet and fruity. I got the pineapple rum. So it was a bit strong, and drinking alcohol, I just think you drink it like you would juice or something, but I had to take sips of this. My friend helped me out! This was my 2nd drink. My 1st drink down by downbeat diner was a surprise! I dont drink, but there is always a 1st for everything! The atmosphere had a cool japanese era theme. Lovely place!

It was ok, but you must buy $20 to use ur card at the bar. Has a small dance floor but its relaxed. Just has very poor ventilation.

Its a great chill place to meet a friend for coffee (nice selections) or a drink ie cocktail. Great vibe simple welcoming atmosphere, cheers mate!

Review №11

Great spot for quality coffee, but dont expect to have a drop coffee option. Options seem to be limited to espresso drinks, though a pour-over might be available. Would be great if they had a larger selection of pastries & small bites, but the blueberry muffins which were there on my visit were fantastic! Great spot, definitely recommend.

I enjoy the relaxed, spacious atmosphere. I like to have iced tea in the day and after work cocktails. I had a fizzy green tea drink that was really good, I cant stop thinking about it

Good coffee, but like most places downtown they dont keep consistent hours, so its hard to get there and get a cup

Great coffee and quiet cafe during the morning/afternoon.

Good music and dance floor. Joined to a video game bar. Also has a third adjoined area with great lighting and a more quiet bar atmosphere for conversation with someone you might like to get to know better.

Great whiskey selection at moderate prices. Very good cocktail list

Ha
Review №17

Its hip, its moving, its confident! Theres a fantastic selection spread and a familiar community keeping it comfortable. This is definitely the hipster side of the building and absolutely a welcoming one.A variety of seating, including benches and bar stools. Gendered bathrooms open to folks inside. Wheelchair accessible (though the bar is the typical height). Bar set up is sensorily quiet, events geared toward the open dance floor will boost that several notches.

By far the best place to drink and dance in Chinatown. The music is always good here

Review №27

Its was alright. Drink selection was good but the bartenders favored the females that were dressed in less. The music was off but picked up after the night went on. Ill go back but might pick somewhere else before I start here for the night.

I really enjoy the atmosphere and location. I intend to go again later in the day to see how the feel changes, but I appreciate the early morning calm Cafe feel.

Really fun bar and nightclub on Fridays, despite the fact i keep running into my ex here. Leave me alone Sean!

Review №35

CHOOSE THE RIGHT BARTENDER AND YOUR GOOD. BOUNCERS ARE WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT AS FAR AS HOW MUCH THEY VALUE THE CUSTOMER. MUSIC IS THE BEST BY FAR. IMO IF THE DJS WERE BAD. THE SPOT WOULD BENEFIT ON LOCATION/POPULARITY THEN QUality/ standard.....if its a popular spot..People will come regardless no matter what the standard

Relax and have one of the best dirty chai in town. Nice atmosphere of an old brick loft style bar building with rotating artwork on the walls and friendly service. Ive only been here during the day so I cant comment on the night life aspect but the whiskey and bourbon selection over the bar is pretty decent.

I would give it more stars if I were a true whiskey drinker. Menu only offers toast-things. Liked the smoked salmon on toast with capers and pickled onions, though. But for a whiskey bar, is expect more noshes.

Review №54

Incredibly cool and welcoming place in the rapidly manifesting blight of Chinatown, the name is appropriate. Refreshingly fair prices as well as free WiFi make this not only a place to return regularly but as a high-recommendation to my friends and associates.

Review №55

These folks care about coffee, their customers, and their community. If youve just moved here, this is the place to frequent, as youll get to rub elbows with artists, creatives, hair folks (theres a beauty school around the corner), and others who love Hawaii and are actively engaged in building a thriving sense of community. Also, its a bar and club at night and on the weekends. The whiskey selection is on point!

This place honestly feels like 3 different spots owned by the same restaurant group depending on when you go. Great café if you want to chill and get some work done during the day, v impressive cocktail selection for a low key mid-week pau hana, and great music for the turn up Thurs-Sat...just make sure you know what youre getting into depending on time and day

Review №65

Terrible bar. I ordered a Jameson on the rocks, figuring I would start with something I knew and then branch out. To order I had to yell my order to the waitress 3 times before she heard me because the music was so loud. Finally she heard me and I got my drink. What I was expecting: Jameson with the large cube ice cube like my friends got in their old fashions. What I got: a cheap plastic cup with overflowing ice cubes and a tiny bit of Jameson in the bottom.For a self proclaimed whiskey bar I figured they could handle pouring whiskey and putting an ice cube in it. Apparently not. I love whiskey and have had a lot of it. But I will never have a drink of any kind from that bar again.

Review №68

Most impressive selection of Whisky, Bourbon, Rye, Whiskey, and Scotch Ive ever seen. Truly bewildering. If you get lucky youll ask for something they cant do a full pour of and get a freebie, as I did with some lovely Highland Park 12.

Manifest gets packed! It is a cute bar across from one of my favorite restaurants. We went to kill time until seats opened up and I found my favorite bitters. Mozart Chocolate. They were in a drink called Lefthand. I fell in love. I found I had to keep stopping by for a Lefthand during my travels in Honolulu. They have a great whiskey menu. Hope to visit again!
