Bars in Hong Kong

Newest Review: ... going out in HK was that you can just sit down at a table either outside or inside (outside is better as you get more atmosphere) and waitresses will make sure you always have a drink. It makes a welcome change from having to crush at the bars to get a drink in the UK. On a friday and saturday night the streets here slowly pack with people, a mix of business men, locals and tourists seem to mingle and most are very chatty. People will just start conversations with the table next to them. I thought this was great as I met 2 french girls also going to sydney! The drinks are fairly expensive after happy hour which usually ends about 9, a... more

I stopped over in Hong Kong on my way to Australia. For 3 nights struggling with jet lag I went out with my friend who lives there. My favourite area to go out in was Lang Kwai Fong, a central area of bars, clubs and restuarants. There are several streets here on a hill, near the central shopping district and theres music for all tastes.

Whether you're a long-term resident or a short-term visitor, this should provide you with (at the very least) a decent primer on your drinking options - and will hopefully lead you to some fantastic evenings out! Regular updates will be posted as bars open and close, so check back before you travel! And if you've heard of a place that I haven't reviewed here, let me know...and I'll try to visit and write about it! Hong Kong's pubs are largely aimed either at expats or at the locals - there's not much mixing that goes on here, sadly (with a few notable and happy exceptions).

BARS ON HONG KONG ISLAND MAD DOGS A massive underground British pub located in D’Aguilar Street, just off the famous Lan Kwai Fong district, which has lengthy Happy Hours in the evenings and boasts decent pub grub along with a range of beers such as Tetleys, Fosters and Guinness. The bar is dimly lit and gets pretty noisy due to the number of customers and the DJ(who was playing some good tunes when we were in). Open until 2am-although the other branch at the bottom of Nathan Road in Kowloon supposedly stays open 24 hours on weekends-the best thing about the place was the table service enabling me to skip the long queues at the bar.
