Great aesthetics, mediocre drinks…read more Food/Drink: I got the matcha latte and it came with a pistachio biscuit. Remember to stir the matcha well before drinking, I forgot to do this and was confused for the first few minutes why it tasted so gross. Price: medium priced coffee as expected for "artisinal" coffee in aesthetic shop. Atmosphere: There's a really cool bar-like sitting area where the baristas serve you coffee. There is also a bar sitting area inside the small shop. Tips: If you come in the afternoon, there may be happy hours on their coffee cocktails!

Looks like selling alcohol is their forte and the cafe business is to support the rent. Lunch was mediocre ($70-120 for a set lunch) but quite a chill and relaxing place. Coffee's not too bad ... The place is busy on a sat lunch ... Reflective of its price and comfort I guess.

Another Japan based chain bakery and just like other chain bakeries you won't be disappointed but…read moreno surprise either. Quality as always is consistent, shops are clean and service is prompt and the sales ladies are polite. Most of the baked goods are produced in their central kitchen, one or two types of loaf bread are baked (with ready made dough) on the premises. Smart marketing strategy in use here together with a semi-open kitchen - aroma and visual as tools to attract customers.

I'm a fan. I like the ambiance, and the food ain't so bad either. But I have deducted 1 star for…read morethe following reasons: For a cafe that's a bit farther out of the way, I think Common Ground's pricing is still pretty expensive. Don't get me wrong, I kinda like the idea that it's a bit farther out, it makes the place a bit less mad and crowded, but for that reason, I think the owners would drop the price a little. I had the smoked salmon open sandwich and a glass of lemongrass tea. Both were delicious! However, for the price that I paid, I think the portions were measly. The smoked salmon sandwich was flavourful and light but I definitely could have had another half portion easily. The lemongrass tea was also very yummy (something that i've never tried before) but for the price you pay for a coffee, I don't think it was worth it. (Esp finding out later how easy this was to make at home!!) I would recommend this place if you want a place where you can chill out forever. (Maybe that's the price you pay for not feeling obligated to rush) Sometimes it gets crowded that people sit on the steps outside, and the area surrounding it is quiet and perfect for it. It's a nice place to bring somebody from out of town and you want to show them a unique place, but for me, it's not a place I would afford to go regularly :(

I had heard really nice things about Common Ground before I decided to give it a go this afternoon…read more It's located in an ultra quiet street right by PMQ and it's just lovely. It's rather small which makes it cozy and when the weather is good, as it was today, you can seat outside at the tables or in some wooden seats stairs-shaped. The atmosphere was great but I couldn't find a free seat outside so decided to take a seat at the common table inside. As I was waiting for someone else I looked around and could tell that things are well taken care of here. The girls seating next to me were having an all day breakfast (or so that was my conclusion by looking at the menu and back to their board) and it was very nicely presented. I only had a green tea, which was nice, but I'll probably try out something else next time as their menu is rather big for a cafe. Next door to Common Ground there's an art jamming place which makes the atmosphere even nicer... Love this newly found hidden cafe!

The owner is truly passionate about his work. What makes his egg waffles different from others is…read morethat he uses coal to heat up the mold as opposed to an electric mold. Each egg waffle comes out crunchy with a hint of a fluffy bite inside each bubble. As he was making the egg waffles, he explained that he is only opened three days a week, and has been at this location for many years. He also poured out samples of his red herbal herbal drink. It looks like red fruit punch, and tastes sweet, like a hawberry flavor. At $12HKD, his drink was cheaper than the other vendors and tasted much better. He used regular cane sugar as opposed to the brown cane sugar sticks to bring out the natural herbal berry flavor. It tasted very refreshing on a hot summers day!

Great place. Had chicken and lamb gyro meat... very tasty…read more What impressed me about the place is that the owner (believe it's the owner) was the one who was the cashier and serving food... he was so friendly with every guest that some of the guests knew him by name. Also, when we wanted couple of water bottles after ordering food, he would refuse to bill us for that. Very impressed with the food, service, location and the overall experience.

From the lower level it doesn't look like much and the bathrooms are under the stairs. This means if you are taller then 5'8" you will not be able to stand up straight. At six foot three it was a bit of a airplane bathroom situation... Regardless of that, the food was absolutely phenomenal. We had the chicken souvlaki and I swear I've never eaten chicken so moist and flavorful. We have eaten at Michelin star restaurants before and I know they have never made chicken so good. The hummus was quite nice and the wine slushy is perfect on a hot day. The vegetarian options got rave reviews and we were impressed by the service. I consider myself lucky for having eaten here. I want to go back and enjoy more!!
