One of my favorite bars in HK for some very delicious cocktails. They did not earn Asia's 50 Best Bars for nothing. Most of their cocktails have some type of Asian element to it, such as pandan or the pickled garlic bulb. Reading individual drink ingredient might sound weird but I haven't had a drink I didn't like from there. I've been told that their Irish coffee is amazing. Compared to the one at Buena Vista, the coffee is smoother and more aromatic at The Diplomat. However, if you want that kick from the whiskey, you're not going to get it here. That can be a good or bad thing.
Half of the place is standing room only while there are some tables in the back and near the windows, this place does get packed. I usually come after dinner but I've heard good things about their burger, also it smells wonderful when I'm only there for a drink. Not a Hobbit, so can't really do a second dinner. read more
