The selling point for me for any Caffe Habitu is always the free wifi. All of their stores have it…read more I think the coffee is on point and they have very unique specialty drinks. They also serve alcoholic coffee drinks. Their food is decent, but like everything else they serve, it's over priced. This store specifically is nice and spacious and never really over crowded. One of the other things I dislike about this store is that you have to go upstairs and around the corner for the restroom. Location wise, they are in between Admiralty and Central station so it's quite a hike from either one.

This is my spot for unique espresso drinks and flavored milk teas. Even the most discerning palate…read morewill be satisfied, as HABITŪ makes everything from Earl Grey lattes to almond ceylon milk tea to the Cioccolata (a beverage made with sipping chocolate)! However, my favorite drink is their signature rose latte. The flavor is delicate and subtle, and they even add edible rose petals which can admittedly feel funny as they brush your lips. Next on my to-try list: the cappuccino brûlée, the masala spiced latte, and the white truffle chestnut latte. The wi-fi is free and strong, and this is an ideal spot for casual meetings if you don't mind a side of noise with your coffee.

Pacific Coffee / The Peak (Hong Kong) -- Just so you know, Pacific Coffee is a coffee cafe chain in…read moreHong Kong. A big one. We're talking about a staggering 120 locations in Hong Kong alone. That's a lot of caffeine. No wonder residents are lightning quick around here. Jamie W and I were caught in the swarm of tourists coursing through the Peak Tower, and we thought we could catch a break in here. Nope. It was just as densely populated in here. We decided to squeeze ourselves onto a crowded banquette where we attempted to sip our HK$38 Iced Lemon Teas (Photo 5). A bit too sweet for our tastes, but at least we were able to wet our whistles. Of course we needed snacks, and they only had pre-packaged ones available, the HK$18 Coffee Waffle and the HK$19 New Zealand Milk Chocolate Cookie (Photo 7). We should've just applied them directly to our ample butts. TEA / SWEETS - 3 stars...unexceptional AMBIANCE - 2.5 stars...like dining in an elevator...with a view SERVICE - 2.5 stars...unenviable tasks performed curtly TOTAL - 3 stars...well, there are 119 other locations to consider RELATED - Exploring Hong Kong?

Nice view while having a macho coffee…read more Still lots to see before Da Nang but live Hong Kong so far.

This is a cool little spot. Though it's not a little privately owned coffee shop it still has a…read moregreat feel. Location is near perfect next to the mid levels escalator in Soho. Large windows and cozy furniture take advantage of the endless pedestrian traffic to tune the fine art of people watching. Hong Kong rocks and this location allows you to relax with a decent cup of coffee and take it in. The coffee is by no means exotic but is good enough for me. Call it a Starbucks type of flavor with less bitterness. A couple of markdowns for not opening until 7:30am and needing to ask for a wifi code that expires after only 30 minutes. Otherwise all good here!

I don't really like to review chain stores, especially as a champion of local businesses run by…read morelocal people, but I thought Pacific Coffee on the corner of Mosque Junction and the Escalator is worthy of a mention. The coffee is the standard fare that you get in any Pacific Coffee across HK, such is there tenacity with order and consistency across the brand. However, this particular branch has one great thing going for it, a "secret" area out the back. Behind the baristas, is a small area with four tables, that looks down onto the pedestrianised area below. It is an ideal place to grab a coffee and do some work, whilst enjoying lounge versions of pop tunes. There are plenty of plugs for charging phones and laptops, but no free wifi, so you will have to use your own, or pay for it. I personally like to occasionally switch off the wifi and step away form the clutter of tech noise for a moment, and this is the ideal place for it. If you get here between 9-10am, you will see the lovely old lady who lives opposite looking over her wall at the passing people traffic. However, as well as your laptops, bring some mozzie repellant. They seem to have a few of these unfriendly guests buzzing around, and I assume it is due to the big pot plant in the corner. Otherwise, come and zone out for a while, read the paper, catch up on your work, it's all good!

No comfortable chairs. The staff is friendly enough. & you get 30 minutes of wifi from your…read morereceipt. The coffee is fine. It's star bucks.

This is kind of an odd Starbucks. It may be shiny and new, but it's missing warmth and light and…read morethat buzzy energy that I've come to associate with all of the stores. The lighting is low, the menu isn't located in its usual spot on the wall (a small version is on the counter), and it was strangely quiet. Also, I believe this is the first time I've seen a sliding door in a Starbucks! Not exactly the most efficient type of door for keeping the Hong Kong heat and humidity at bay. I usually bypass Starbucks and go straight to a local coffee shop for my espresso drinks, but every once in awhile I crave a chai latte and sadly, not everyone in town makes them. Definitely worth a shot for takeaway coffee, but Classified is a much better spot for a laptop or lounge session.

The coffee and the vibes were immaculate! Came here after a friend recommended it and indeed it had…read moreeverything I envisioned in a cute coffee shop! Their Americano was very solid and I loved how its served almost like a Guinness with lots of foam on top AND dynamic "layers" of foam in the cup. It had that subtle sweetness after the bitterness from the coffee. I got myself an affogato. While the vanilla ice cream was pretty good with vanilla beans in it, the espresso was indeed quite strong. The coffee has seating options indoor and outdoor. They also have a row of coffee beans/roasts as well as test tubes for your smell the respective types of beans. The brown coffee tables with accents of light blue, along with the prominent coffee bean aroma, I can see myself catching up with friends here or getting some work done.

Fuel Expresso is conveniently located near Airport Express Hong Kong Station. Wellington Flat White was enjoyable with great latte art.

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

I popped in while waiting for a lunch reservation and it was a nice little break from the crowds. Service was quick and really polite. Got a pour‑over and they actually brought it to the table, which felt way nicer than doing the usual counter pickup. The lounge seating is comfy and spaced out well. Honestly just a solid, chill spot if you're in Lee Garden One.

The sitting area spills out onto the shopping floor at Lee Garden Tower 1 (I think floor 3, but just keep taking escalators up and it will be easy to find) and is kind of a nice, indoor, air conditioned, non frantic, spacious spot to pop a squat and take a load off in the chaos of Causeway Bay.
