I love reading books and having coffee along with it. I must say, this is a great place to read and…read moreenjoy a cup of coffee. Although the shop isn't as big, it's still a great place. It would be nice though if the books were more organized as it is kind of hard to find some books. But the people who work there are really nice and helpful. They are more than willing to help, from what I can tell. I've been there for more about 4 and I wouldn't say I'd stop coming because I just love the place.

For a long time this is the place where the high school students hangout and about. And when once…read moreyou become a grown-ass adult you feel like, "yeah I should go shopping at Calvin Klein, Paul Smith, Burberry, etc." This is like, valuing yourself by the value of things you own. And after awhile, you realize all other big shopping malls are the same and none of these brands' value reflects anything but a reminder of HK's notorious materialism, then yeah, you'll miss Causeway Place. It is undergoing a big overhaul and some of the shops are still under renovation. But the result so far is very refreshing. Yes you can see a few old shops that have been here for a decade, but the new shops give a lot of interesting elements to the mall. A ukulele shop, for example, is a new sight to me. The mall also removes the lower-end shops, .e.g mobile phone cases shop or check-shop (格仔舖), and makes the whole place with a little bit of class that more than just student-friendly. One more thing that works in my favor is the male clothing shops. They are rare breeds as malls are always focusing on female clothing. Since I'm a sucker of local brands and off-mainstream designs, the boom of male clothing shops here in Causeway Place actually fits me well. Give this mall another chance. It resides at the bestest spot in Causeway Bay, and deserves much better attention after the renovation is done.

Causeway Place, just like Island Beverley and Laforet, is a smaller, more local shopping mall with…read moreloads of tiny shops in Causeway Bay. Causeway Place is right opposite MTR Exit E, along the same street as Windsor House. Unlike Island Beverley and Laforet, I would say that there are comparatively less fashion boutiques and that the shops here are more varied. If you're looking to get accessories for your phone, be it portable chargers or covers, give Causeway Place a try. There are quite a few shops that specialize in accessories for your phone, and they're generally quite affordable (although still more expensive than places like Mong Kok, because this is after all Causeway Bay). Be sure to compare prices between stores before buying though! There's also one shop that is filled to the brim with Sanrio toys and accessories. If you have a daughter or a younger cousin, bring them here - this is a Hello Kitty/Rilakkuma/Sanrio-characters-in-general paradise! You'll be able to find anything from notepads to lunch boxes to bags here. Of course, if you're on the lookout for clothes and accessories, you won't be disappointed. There are quite a couple of shoe stores here and they have quite the variety! Note that if you're buying clothes, you probably won't be able to try them on as there are no changing rooms, so you might want to wear a tank inside that will enable you to just easily slip something on. Causeway Place isn't huge, but there's lots to see and lots to buy. Instead of going straight to Times Square or Sogo the next time you're at Causeway Bay, try coming here - it'll certainly be a refreshing change!

This is a small street of craft and souvenir shops, also known as cat street. This could have…read moresomething to do with it being the end of the cat statue photo walk, which is a must do in my opinion. I wish I had the chance to see this street fully open, but unfortunately when I visited on a Monday afternoon, more than half the stores were closed. I think Friday might be the day to go, as I passed by around noon and it was lively at this day and time. I still enjoyed looking at the shops that were open and found some great items to bring back, including some jade trinkets and ceramic tea cups. There is a strong chance the jade pieces were fake considering they were so cheap, but they were just little ornaments, so that was fine for what they were. If we're taking jade bracelets, that's another story. This is a very good place to look around and find deals on gifts and whatever you like to buy.
