We've had some good nights in here — sounds like there's more to come.

Manchester cocktail spot Tiki Hideaway is poised to launch a brand-new drinks menu and to celebrate, they’re giving away free drinks throughout the month of September, plus the chance to win a sensational top prize.

Honestly, if you thought a free cocktail or two sounded good, wait until you hear this.

The Northern Quarter spot, tucked in the basement just underneath Mean Eyed Cat last autumn, has quickly become a bit of a hidden gem here in the city centre and now they’re set to make things even more interesting with his new promotion.

As part of the new ‘Ticket to Paradise’ giveaway, Mancs can score themselves a complimentary cocktail by signing up to their new website.

Known for its Polynesian-inspired interiors and ever-reliable party vibes, Tiki Hideaway’s new cocktail menu is delivering unique twists on global flavours whilst also making sure to honour everyone’s favourite timeless Tiki classics.

New additions include the El Diablo, which uses El Jimador Blanco Tequila alongside ginger and blackcurrant; ‘Tradewinds’, combining Havana Club 3 Year Rum and Appleton Estate Signature Rum with apricot, lemon, and coconut and historic South Pacific drink, and the curiously named ‘Doctor Funk’.

That’s genuinely just a small taste of what’s to come. With prices starting from £11, there are a total of 10 new drinks to choose from and there genuinely is something for everyone. The Island Inspirations drinks are even available for £10.50 each or two for £15. A belting deal.

But as mentioned, the real eye-catcher here is the chance to win a Tiki night out in the Hideaway’s VIP Coconut Cabana space, where you’ll also be given up to £500 to spend behind the bar.

Turning the bar into a roped-off paradise perfect for private hire spaces or big bookings, allowing for the winner and friends to try out the new menu and discover new cocktail favourites, you simply have to sign up from 30 August for your guaranteed free cocktail to be entered into the prize draw.

Spotlighting two particular standouts, mixologist Calum Anderson said: “‘The Blackstrap Daiquiri’ from our Island Inspiration section is a truly unique cocktail unlike anything else on our menu.

“Usually, a Daiquiri is a very light and fresh drink. This version turns that completely on its head by using black spiced rum with black molasses syrup and root ginger to create a rich, heavy, and spiced Daiquiri variation.

“On this menu, I love the ‘House Grog’. It’s the perfect mix of high-quality, overproof rum, tropical flavours, and island spices. This really epitomises what Tiki culture and drinks mean to me, as well as having some fascinating history.”

Whatever kind of tipple takes your fancy, the team are pretty confident you’ll find it at Tiki Hideaway. You can make the most of this offer strictly from Friday, 30 August until the end of December, so don’t wait around!
