    Good drinks, interesting warehouse vibe in a gentrifying part of Chinatown. The brick wall is reminiscent of a Brooklyn dive bar but with nicer drinks.

    Really good drinks! Reminded me of some from back in California. The space was clean, the bartender was friendly and she made the drinks good. I had a Mai Tai while my wife had a Tito's and sprite with lime. I would definitely go back to try out more drinks. My wife said she would go back for some coffee and they do make coffee drinks as well.

    They are literally racist and will deny you entry based solely on your skin color. Do not go here!!!! The security guards literally profile you and decide if they wanna let you in. I didn’t say “goodnight” to one of the guards and he labeled me as an “angry black woman” and refused to let me in. They have no managers or supervisors present at night and hire the worst security service. It’s absolutely ridiculous take your money to another establishment if you’re a person of color.

    Went early ish so we were able to get in easily. Our bartender(idk his name but he’s the tall buff dude, he needs a bigger shirt lol, maybe his name was tommy?) was on top of making drinking exactly how we wanted and was very very attentive. Food was dry and tasted eh but because the customer service was great, I’ll be coming back!

    Manifest is conveniently located in the Arts District/Chinatown Honolulu and is the best of its kind. During the evening, it is a cocktail bar & night club, and during the day it's a cafe with delicious coffee & breakfast menu and lots of working space. I love the atmosphere of both, and recommend to try this gem out if you haven't already!

    Great spot with excellent drinks. Live music is a huge plus. The Irish coffee is so delicious and they can make it vegan!

    Stopped in on two separate occasions and was not disappointed. The crafted cocktails were excellent and even better was the drink prices, very reasonable. The bartenders we encountered were all friendly, helpful and artisans at crafting well portioned cocktails even when deviating from the pre drafted menu list. Atmosphere is relaxing and inviting. Wish I was a local (from the mainland) but you can't win them all

    It's a great place to go for young ones and young at hearts, past meets present...cool music every 2nd Fridays, also connected to Royal arcade that can remind you of the past...Could be a bigger place or better location for parking...

    The Manifest was our first stop Saturday night. The staff from the bouncer to bartender were great. Music was fresh. DJ good. Drinks were cold. It would have been nice if the cocktail menu was a available.

    By far the worse bar I have been to in Hawaii, I got denied service with my 3 Hispanic friends(female) after asking her if they had a music box (like most bars have). She decided to tell us that the last call was done at 11:15 am and ignored us until We had someone else order drinks for us. Very disappointed.

    A solid place for cocktails at night or coffee drinks in the day hours. I came here with friends looking for a last round before the night ended and Manifest delivered on point drinks in a wonderful industrial/brick environment. Just know they do card you at the door and no happy hour.

    Great nightclub to have fun on Fridays or the weekends. No entrance fee or cover charge

    The Chicken Parmesan meatball panini is seriously one of the best sandwiches I’ve had in ages. The drinks and the staff are also fantastic. If I lived in the area, I’d definitely go there all the time.

    Not worth going on weeknights. No music, disengaged bartender, shuts down an hour before posted closing time.

  • 2/5 Patrick R. 1 year ago on Google
    Drinks were good but the music left much to be desired

  • 5/5 Delia Rio B. 6 months ago on Google
    Vibe is chill and cool music - bar offers variety; friends mentioned the food is good. Like the people and DJ - a great place to listen to music, chill with friends. Plus, local talent from spoken word and musicians perform here first Monday of the month and a wonder pool room open nightly for those who love to play. Great talents like Poetic Voice of the Street and Fyah Empress Stone and more greats… must visit Manifest!!

    The bouncer decided to throw me out when I girl dressed as a man pushed me front on the way back to the bar and when I asked why I was thrown out, he said because you were acting a scene. I asked the girl/guy what was the problem and he got the bouncer to kick me out. I was 100% sober and the Indian guy at the front wouldn’t let me back in. Be careful if you go here because they allow feminist to control everything.

    What a nice place people can chill talking drinking a coffee or something a little stronger if they like great service 💪👋

  • 4/5 jaycoin 11 months ago on Google
    I only come here on Friday or Saturday nights. the crowd is generally younger. lots of opportunity to socialize. there is a dance floor and you can also play video games on the other side, mostly super smash bros. I didn't give 5 stars because the DJ play the mix between club music and wacky music.

    Great to see people out having fun again..

  • 5/5 Hannah C. 2 years ago on Google
    Came here for the aloha comedy festival and it was great. Nice venue and good comics. The drink selection is solid. And we got the meatball sub with furikake chips that was also good. All around enjoyed the vibe here!

  • 1/5 Bryan G. 1 year ago on Google
    Drinks, sub-par. DJ… equivalent to a 12 year old with an iTunes account. Absolutely 0 rhythm and no sense of how to transition between songs. The dj actually excelled at ruining every beat. This review is after their 3rd shot. Don’t let the long line outside fool you, go to tchin tchin.

    I was refused service for no reason by one of the bartenders. I stod at the bar for a long time and she just ignored me and took everyones orders except mine. When I tried to ask what the problem was she just rolled her eyes. I had no clue what I did wrong and wish I would have gotten an explanation. When I talked to my friends the next day some of them had the same experience. I’ve never had this happen to me before and the whole thing was just really strange. The other bartenders were very nice and helpful though.

    Been a fan for years. It was my end of the night spot after mosh pits at Downbeat. Great bartenders & great DJs

  • 3/5 Eddie S. 3 years ago on Google
    Came on a good Friday the atmosphere was very cool and the waiter was very courteous and the music descent but I gave it 3 stars because I didn't like their Hennessey to Coke ratio which favors the Coke. Other than that everything else was ok.

    Good music. Good time to bring some friends!

    I love Manifest in the morning when they first open. It is quiet and you can get homework done.
