So, in Australia there are these coffee shops that I like to call foyer coffee shops, namely…read morebecause they happen to be in the foyer of an office tower, and most of them tend to serve pretty rubbish coffee. Well, I get the impression that this is one of those type of coffee shops, though I have to be honest and say that the coffee wasn't actually all the bad. Sadly, though, they didn't serve tea.

Convenient location in a shopping mall. I like the name Espresso Alchemy, even the wifi password is…read morea cool name. Beautiful cappuccino, you might want to ask for it extra hot because it was a little lukewarm, but it was delicious! I wanted a warm sparkling water which they had on hand (they also have cold). Nice people working here, the manager was very attentive. I like the atmosphere with the Edison lightbulbs . Really great place.

You will find this Starbucks on the 2nd floor of Elements…read more So much seating available with an open concept. A dedicated staff works on keeping the area good. Tables being cleared and wiped down constantly. Noise level is high and not much privacy. Service is fast even the line up can be long.

This Starbucks in Elements is very popular and crowded, and for a good reason!…read more - But, not to worry about its being too crowded, its staff will help you find a seat, as well as with your order! Whenever in Elements, I always make it a point to come here for my caffeine fix. DETAILS YOU CAN SKIP Its nice lounge is narrow AND very LONG, with quite comfortable seating. Most of the seats along the glass wall have a view of the nice atrium below, which is right above the concourse of the MRT. Because of its great length, this Starbucks is actually pretty spacious. The ordering station is located at ONE END, so, if your table is at the OTHER end of the long lounge, you'll have a little walk. However, for your convenience, it has two condiment bars located along the LONG hall way for cream, sugar, napkins, etc. Better yet, this particular Starbucks has a UNIQUE feature of having 2 FRIENDLY staff members assigned to HELPING customers (1) FIND a seat, (2) even to take orders and BRINGING them to the table for the elderly, handicapped, or those who simply have their hands full! ... And (3) these wonderful staffers also clear and clean the tables quickly and efficiently after each customer! - Yes, I have seen customers asking them to help find extra chairs, putting in another order...! Cool, eh?! KUDOS to them and to the management! :-) Whenever in Elements, I always come here to enjoy my coffee and pastry, before and/or after a walk, a meal, a movie...! 04.26.16

Good ambience. Good customer service . I love to come here…read morefor afternoon tea and snacks . When I ordered their pot pie they would heat it up and served in a plate . I also love to order their fruit ice tea the largest size . The tea was brew to a rich flavor and it would be pair with fruits like black tea with Ruby grapefruit & honey , ice shaken lemon Hibiscus tea or ice shaken lemon oblong tea . I enjoyed their ambiance, wall decorations and service was efficient and friendly .

To my high hopes of finding this place on Instagram to coming here, the experience was slightly…read moreunderwhelming. First off, layout of the place is kind of weird. The entrance faces a couple of steps to an elevated level where the seating is. To the left of the entrance is baristas doing their thing but you can also see baristas on the second level too. So where do we go? We walked up the stairs to get seats and proceeded to the second level barista who then told us to order on the first level. Couldn't have been easier if the barista was more attentive by greeting and waiting for people to come up to order? Anyways, we grabbed the menu and decided to get some drinks as a break from walking. Since it was hot, I got an iced mocha. And honestly, nothing special. It was just satisfying to drink something sweet and cold. Hype? Maybe. Would I come back here again? Maybe if I was desperate enough to sit at a minimal looking spot and try another drink.

Great open concept coffee shop Lots of space with big…read morewindows --- very hard to find a spacious coffee shop in Hong Kong . Plenty of seats to come and chill The drinks were good but the only thing is my friend for a drip coffee and I got a latte but my latte took a long time to come out. Wasn't sure if service was just slow or if they were brewing a new espresso or something :/

The first day here we had Starbucks, our normal go to place. Then we saw Noc, and hands down this…read moreis an amazing place! The service was amazing, they spoke great English and were very nice and helped us with our order. I got the latte and açaí bowl and both were great! The bowl was sweet and had fresh fruit on top. The coffee was perfect and tasted amazing. Hands down a great experience and I can't wait to come back!

While looking to bookmark some cool coffee places in Hong Kong, I saw many IG reels for this spot…read more I came specifically for the pretty cups. The hostess will ask if you want to be seated inside or outside. HK humidity is no joke. No way would I be able to sip a hot one outside. The AC inside is perfect even with the open entrance. The furniture has that old Chinese antique with lots of 80s tchotchkes. Here is what we ordered: - Longan Honey Latte (iced & hot) - Black Sugar Latte (hot) All of our drinks were excellent as was the service. Great place to relax and chit chat with your friends. Restroom is available in the back.

Halfway Coffee sits in one of my favorite neighborhoods on HK Island, Sheung Wan, near the arty…read morePMQ, surrounded by galleries, chintzy antique shops, good restaurants and nightlife, and well worth exploring. Halfway was our occasional morning base, with solid Western breakfast fare: scrambled eggs on sourdough or avocado toast with smoked salmon and a solid latte and matcha latte. The artful plating stands out, with food and drinks served on vibrant enamelled porcelain with intricate designs. That said, breakfast here veers towards the more basic: scrambled eggs on toast with a side salad and nicely plated pink mayonnaise. The sourdough bread was a good multigrain, but overall a surprisingly standard rendition of a breakfast open sandwich. In all, a nice spot with friendly service, a modern setting, good atmosphere and solid a-okay cafe fare that is beautifully plated.

Finally get around to writing a review on one of my favorite cafes in SYP…read more - Great coffee with a selection of milks (soy milk, and they even almond milk which seems to be a latest hipster trend). - Free wifi. Speeds quite good (after all this is HK). Wifi also works outside in the courtyard. - Power at some of the tables, including USB outlets too. - Very spacious (which seems like a luxury in HK) - Outdoor Courtyard. Which is nice in the cooler months. And a lot of people overlook it so it's a nice quiet work space. - Pet friendly. There's even a puppachino for the pets. - Good food also. I like the pasta here. - Cheap co-working space upstairs (which may or may not be related). But they use the same bathrooms anyway.

THEY HAVE REALLY COLD AIR-CONDITIONING HERE! This is a luxury during the hot months in Hong Kong…read more(which is about 9/12 months of the year). Also they have really good coffee and the prices are cheaper than a lot of the coffeeshops in Hong Kong (especially the ones by sheung wan that I like). I always get their iced coffee with almond milk along with their smoked salmon sandwich! Their coffee is a lot more aromatic and stronger than a lot of other coffee shops in hk. Also, their coffee is less acidic too. I mean there's not a lot of good coffee in hk. One more thing I like about this place is that they have a lot of milk options. They let you pick between almond milk, soy milk, low-fat milk, and whole milk! Tip: they have wifi, a lot of space, and their bathroom is huge (upstairs)

Their service level is several levels higher than USA based Starbucks which made it seem more like an upgraded experience. This location is in a commercial building and it has a modest eat-in area and a nice patio area that faces the harbor. The staff was very friendly and efficient. Service was very efficient and quick. I will return to this location when I return to H.K. In the future!
