Cowrie Cove (Shangri-La Mactan)
MTWTFSS

A seafood restaurant and bar on stilts over the Shangri-La's private cove, best for a sundowner and the sound of waves. Polished hotel cocktails and wine; some guests say the cocktail list could be bolder. Hosting Bangkok's Lennon's (Asia's 50 Best No. 7) for the 2026 Cocktail Fiesta.

Go Mon–Wed, Sun from 5pmHappy hour runs Sun–Wed, as the sun drops over the cove.
Research notes

Official Shangri-La page (via search snippet; the page itself blocks direct fetches): bar 17:00–00:00 daily, restaurant 18:00–22:00, happy hour Sun–Wed 17:00–19:00. The Philippine Cocktail Fiesta 2026 venue list also gives 'Daily, 5pm to 12am'. A Google listing shows 17:00–22:00, and another listing says Wed–Sat only, so hoursVerified stays false until the official page can be read directly. Price is an estimate; the Fiesta promo cocktail is ₱400++.
