    Malate: Great street scene

    by reklund Written Nov 19, 2011 6 reviews

    2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

    I have been to manila many times and alternate my stay between malate and makati. When in malate I always enjoy the street scene that revolves around adriatico st, remedios st and around. Many great cheap places to get cold beers and local food. I usually start out at Randevous, opposite Rainbow suites on adriatico. Fun place to sit and watch the mix of people in this crazy part of Manila. Walk out and go left to remedios circle, then left again you have a street with a few clubs like cowboy grill and Socialista, also many great eaterys. Sometimes annoying with all the hawkers but can also be nice when they actually sell stuff you need or want, like smokes and peanuts.

    Dress Code: None what so ever unless you want to enter some of the nightclubs.

    A band in Malate

    Malate is the best place for going out. You have a lot of bar and pub, especially bars with live local bands, it 's a nice place to drink some beers and meet Filipino people.

    Dress Code: Some bar have dress code, but not a lot ask us dress specially

    The Hobbit House: Make a Short Night of It

    by AKtravelers Updated Mar 15, 2008 936 reviews

    2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

    Matt, me and the Hobbit House staff at the door

    The Hobbit House is a restaurant and bar built around a Lord of the Rings theme located not far from the Baywalk and the Hyatt. Most interesting about the Hobbit House is that the wait staff is made up entirely of little people (dwarfs and midgets) who are the hobbits. They are a very genial group and happily pose for pictures or chat with you. Their English is great!
    As for the offerings, the dinner food is sketchy. I had a particularly bad steak and no one in our party of six really liked their meal. On the otherhand, the beer list is extensive, with copious bottled brews from Belgium, Germany, Britain and Ireland. The entertainment is first rate also, so the next time I go I'll eat some place else first!
    I bet they really do St. Patrick'd Day well here!

    Malate: Paseo de Roxas

    Paseo de Roxas in the evening, Manila.

    At Paseo the Roxas the sunset in Manila shows its beautiful colours reflected on the Manila bay.

    In the evening the boulevard gets crowded of people walking around, looking for restaurants or even for some nice spot.

  • Anthology: By The Baywalk

    by OFW_Gokou Written Oct 10, 2004 1 reviews

    2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

    Nothing really compares the experience if 'ur in Malate especially the Baywalk and Remedios Circle. One can simply take the options of enjoyment, from fine dining, street party, ballroom dancing, live bands and acoustic jam, ktv or watching the night passes-by while drinking the finest beers or wines with your friends.

    Dress Code: From formal to casual to rugged type, shirts, jeans etc....we're in a democratic country. As long as you can pay your bills, it doesn't matter anyway.

    Endangered Species: Young and smart set

    by Ric Updated Dec 7, 2003 111 reviews

    0.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

    Interesting clientele, good drinks, good entertainment. Not as self-consciously upscale as the Makati clubs.

    Dress Code: Informal but chic. Too hot for jackets in Manila in general but designer labels much in evidence.

    Will tell u some of my favorite places in Manila/Makati/ Malate and around!
    Some restaurants, bars and discos!
    - Malate area try:
    . Cafe Havana, a latin bar, also full of tourists, or how they say here, White guys, lots of hookers as well, wonderfull food and music! Live band on saturdays night;
    . Cafe Adriatico (facing HAvana) offers good food as well;
    - Hobbit house - this bar is curious, all the staff are dwarfs! U have to take care not to hit them when they come near to give ur drink! :)
    Theres also the gay area of Malate, lots of bar, a really good disco that i cant remember the name now, and the most famous bar, Fidel.

    Dress Code: Casual
