Salon de Ning

Manila


Hidden away inside the luxurious Peninsula hotel, this is a 1930s Shanghai–style drinking den full of dark nooks and hidden spaces. Themes range from bohemian lounge to air zeppelin cockpit to Thrilla in Manila (ie, boxing). Live music kicks off nightly on the central stage.

Next door is The Bar, a pub known for its all-you-can-drink evenings (P1280) on Friday and Saturday from 7pm to midnight; cocktails and spirits included!
