10 Nightlife in Hong Kong That You Shouldn't Miss

November 1, 2021 Tonie Szymanski

Delectable dim sum, floating islands, and a one-of-a-kind skyline are just some of Hong Kong’s unique features. Get an eyeful of traditional Chinese architecture in Ngong Ping village, then take the tram to the tippity-top of Victoria Peak for unparalleled views. The rocks and gentle hills of Nan Lian Garden will bring you inner peace, as will a calming cup of tea in a Stanley café. Become one with everything at the Chi Lin Nunnery, a serene Buddhist complex.

Sense 99

As you wrestle with Sense 99’s rusty door hinges, prepare yourself for the convivial atmosphere that will engulf you when you enter the bar. Everyone seems to know everyone else at Sense 99, but it is by no means exclusive - they want to know you too.The hipsters, artists and musicians that frequent Sense 99 love the place for the anything goes attitude of the charm of that historic building.

Dragonfly

Playing on the European heritage associated with the Tai Kwun complex, Dragonfly creates an ambiance synonymous with the art nouveau styles of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Dragonfly is a comfortable boutique bespoke cocktail lounge and eatery designed by masterful artist Ashely Sutton. Dragonfly presents a cosy ambience of comfort and relaxion in an era of a time gone by.

I love this beautiful art-nouveau styled cocktail bar. If you want a place with wow factor, this is perfect.I’d recommend it even more strongly if you could only guarantee getting in. It’s very small and there is usually a queue. It is cosy and intimate which also means that it can be crowded and noisy but it is so strikingly lovely. The ceiling is a sea of Tiffany styled turquoise lights like dragonfly wings and the bar is a giant human/dragonfly, with wings spreading above the bar counter. Small cast iron dragonflies are dotted around the place, on the tables and bar. It’s a fantastical, sophisticated design created by Ashley Sutton who has done other Hong Kong bars as well ( Iron Fairies and Ophelia). The cocktails are decadent too - Dragon’s Pearls (milk tea, mixed with mandarin, gin, cognac, and tapioca). Most are around HK$120+. It’s probably not the place you will stay for a whole night but it’s perfect for a couple of drinks. We tend to go if we have visitors and our preference now is to go at the start of the night, when we are likely to get a table without waiting. If it is full inside, they may offer tables outside in the covered courtyard (a mix of lounges and high tables and stools). We have sat there before but it doesn't have the same atmosphere or décor and if we can’t get inside, then we tend to go elsewhere now. GETTING THERE: Dragonfly truly is a hidden gem but that also means it can be tricky to find. Persist - it's worth it. The easiest way to get there is from the Mid-Levels escalator. About half-way up (above Hollywood Rd), take the flight of stairs on your left - I've attached a photo. The stairs will lead you into the the old colonial Central Police Station (now the rejuvenated Tai Kwun Heritage Centre). Dragonfly is on ground floor in the old Superintendent’s House.

Chez Trente

Reviewed By Brucehunnisett

This place is a little hidden gem in SoHo, Hong Kong, the fridge is always stocked with an interesting selection of reasonably priced beers from around the world, the walls host exhibitions from local artists that change regularly and impromptu music sessions start when there are musicians in the house, which there are regularly. The owners are super-friendly, and the clientele are a friendly unpretentious mix of Hong Kongers looking for something a little bit different to the norm.

The Riff

The Riff is Asia’s premier standup comedy club. It is Hong Kong’s only full-time comedy venue, and the first on the continent from Live Nation, the entertainment house behind the legendary Punchline Comedy Clubs in the US, home to giants including Dave Chappelle.

Reviewed By pbalogh1982 - Hong Kong, China

The Riff is in California Tower in the middle of Lan Kwai Fong, which makes it super convenient to stop in for a drink. They have a purpose-built showroom along with a separate bar that offers happy-hour specials, which make it affordable as well! The bonus is that the Wednesday and Sunday open mics are generally free, so it's a low-risk option just to see what's going on that week. I have been to a few of their shows as well, and they were super funny! Most of their headliner shows sell out at least a week in advance, so I would recommend booking ahead for those shows - otherwise, just stop in and see what they're up to!

A private members club that also serves as a meeting place for the city's media, business and diplomatic community.

Holding a guest membership we had a few nights out there, Bert's bar is lovely, bar area noisy as you would expect and the setvices are vety good, with friendly folks working there and dealing w heavy drinkers from Europe, Usa and so on. While my club would fesk out when you show up in sandals and shorts, the Bar area is quite a place of great varietal dressings
