Situated in the old Kowloon Shangri La the Tapas Bar actually is a popular spot in the TST East area among locals, business people and tourists alike. In the past years restaurants and bar along the sidewalk facing Victoria have added outside seating for the guests. This was done due to the ban of indoor smoking. Same goes for the Tapas Bar. The setting is modern, lights are dimmed normally making a relaxing atmosphere. Service is efficient, attentive but not overly friendly depending on who's serving you. 5 - 6 years ago they had a great crew that was motivated, attentive and super friendly. This has changed recently and service doesn't reflect a 5 star hotel experience. As the name states this should be a tapas bar. Apart from good colt cuts including excellent iberico ham they also serve some hot tapas. But they are not really good and if I have to come here I prefer to stay away from them. Drinks selection is excellent. Everything is on the menu, cocktails, mocktails, liquor, beer and wine. The selection of wines by the glass is great, same goes for the selection of bottles. It covers all parts of the world and suits every budget. If you like beer, they have a few on tab and a good selection of different bottles. Whisky selection is good as well and include some rarities which are overly expensive! There are much better choices in Hong Kong but in this area one of the better ones.

Good food, a little slow service but nothing crazy. Absolute bangers in the playlist.

Les Pucelles - Nice cozy wine bar of vintage French style. I'm loving it!

A very cute little wine bar. To look at it, you would think you were in London or Paris. But, it is…read morein the hip neighborhood of Tai Hang, a five minute walk from the Tin Hau MTR. Here you can find a long list of white, red, and rose wines (and one dessert moscato) as well as a few options for nibbles. Namely, jamon platter, cheese platter, pate platter, or mixed platter - which all come with a few slices of bread and are a bit customizable: which type of cheese and pate you want is pairable with the wines. The reason that this location does not get 5 stars is because for 140 dollars, we got a very small serving when we ordered the mixed platter. Oh, and the place has a serious mosquito problem. I get bitten easily but even my friends who don't noticed the clouds of mozzies hanging around our table despite the anti-mosquito-smoke thingey lit at our feet (which I had to ask for.) Get one of those purple-light mosquito-blasters, people! Seriously. Otherwise, the other 4 stars were earned through great ambience and very good service - two different servers gave perfect information and advice for wines, and our party of 5 was easily accommodated.

Les Pucelles is a small yet cozy wine bar in Tai Hang with a French feel to it. For a native French…read moreperson, you'd think it ironic for the bar to be located on School Street, as "le pucelle" is a term from the Middle Ages, referring to women who have not been "deflowered"... You can also call in advance to reserve for large group event, and they even let you bring outside snacks to munch on with good wine. A plus, they close late, so you can spend hours here. A neighborhood gem indeed.

Ughhhhh Ember is so cool. Cool drinks, cool live band. It makes me forget I have a 60 year old…read moresoul. The mood was lively, the drinks were tasty, and the singers were hitting all the right notes. It's the perfect place for chilling in the evening and night owls to gather, which makes it another wonderful addition to Hong Kong's lovely nightlife scene. Located on Gloucester, it's not the busiest street but that's what makes Ember special. If you want to get crazy, just head a little west on Lockhart Road. But if you want to sip a fancy drink and sit back with some close friends, this is where you want to be. The lights are dim, the music is jazzy, and the staff treat you with utmost friendliness. I didn't get to try their food but I did get to sample their extensive booze list. They've got a fantastic collection of wines and some of the most creative cocktails. Like the Tap Sonic, one of the most stunning drinks I've ever seen. It's a floral G&T, flavoured with elderflower, and has actual frozen flowers inside the ice cubes. Or China Trap House, a fruity green tea infused drink served in a traditional Chinese bowl. They even put effort into their mocktails, like the Music Tower, which has fresh pineapple strips stacked on top, looking like some kinda french fry Jenga game. All were absolutely delicious and will set you back around HKD $100-150. The main attraction is the live band. Yes, they were fantastic musicians. Yes, they've got a great playlist that mixed the new and the old, all with their own twist. But they were also super interactive and gave people shout-outs and took song requests. They seem like a fun crew and are probably cool people to hang out with in real life. All of this makes Ember somewhere you definitely want to be on a Friday night. Or any night really. We went on a Wednesday and there were two birthday parties and a bunch of people coming in and out. They know what's good. (66/100) - 2018

Sharing is caring!!! Anyway, this place is next door to the hotel I always stay at when visiting the island, and I've got to say, just passing it by will entice you to come in. The ambiance is awesome, with low (but not too low) light that makes it intimate. The wine selection is great and the staff are great in recommending options if you're not sure what you're looking for. The cocktails are also expertly mixed which is always worth a star or two in my books. The food is also really good! I tried the truffle pizza, truffle fries, and Caesar salad, and they were definitely finger-licking good! What brings all this goodness together is the live music. When we visited, it consisted of a jazz singer and an accompanying pianist. They performed combinations of Chinese and western jazz, and also took requests from the audience. Being an amateur pianist myself with an expert ear for good music, I have to say it doesn't get much better than this if you're looking for a place to relax with friends or that significant other. Highly recommended. WRITE REVIEWS PEOPLE!!! Fellow yelpers are relying on you to find hidden gems and well-known watering holes!

Causeway Bay is a bit extreme. There are hardcore all-you-can-drink "upstair" bars. There are…read moreluxurious rooftop bars. There are average you-can't-even-remember-the-name bars on Yiu Wah Street. The Sky Bar is a mix of everything and but being unique on its own too. It's in Lee Theatre Plaza. Pretty decent if you compare to Tang Lung Street (sans Mid-Town), Yiu Wah Street or Henry House. So even though they offer dart machines and pool table, it still attracts quite some nice and decent crowd. Big screens for sports. Apparently they have EPL broadcasting live, so another vibe to the mix during Saturday night I'd imagine (but hold on to your thoughts about coming here for late matches). Now the food was actually pretty good, which was rare for a bar in HK as well. Both the cheese mushroom and cheese escargot were well made. Pool table is free. You just need to tell the guys playing that you'd like to play the next round. There's a small private room too, with its own dart machine and the table is apparently made to play beer pong. Two small things though - (1) when I asked for a shot (yes it happens quite often lately...), they didn't seem to have shooter glass and poured me on a whiskey glass instead. Couldn't complain at all to have a big shot of tequila, but gosh, it tasted like the cheapest kind of tequila only college students would buy from 7-11. (2) It originally states it opens till 1am. It was more like 12 midnight, and last (drink) order at 11:30pm. So if you want to chill late night in Causeway Bay, make sure you have a backup plan. (And hence, no late night football here). Otherwise - I'll definitely come again for happy hour.

Happy hour 3pm to 9pm, great selection of snacks including mussels, sausages, wings. There's pool,…read moredarts, TV showing premier league. Good happy hour location.
