  7. Rank 207. Montana

    Cuban Cocktail Bar

    The moment you walk in, the whole room yells "Ritmo!" at you, which is either alarming or delightful depending on your mood. This cocktail bar on Hollywood Road is a collaboration between Lorenzo Antinori and Simone Caporale, and it draws its spirit from Cuba's Club de Cantineros, a bartenders' collective that codified the classics. The Daiquiri gets a careful reimagining, the snacks run from loaded crisps to Cubano sandwiches, and the vibe is communal and loud in the best possible way.

  9. Rank 209. Baci

    Pizzeria

    The cocktail list here picked up a 50 Top Pizza Asia-Pacific award, which is either a compliment to the drinks or a gentle dig at everywhere else in the region. Baci is a bar attached to a lively Italian trattoria in the thick of D'Aguilar Street, and the aperitivo program leans into that setting hard, with wines, spritzes, and enough Italian energy to make Lan Kwai Fong feel briefly like Milan on a warm evening.


  10. Rank 210. Aqua

    Italian

    The harbor views from the 17th floor set the tone before anyone opens a menu. Aqua is a date-night restaurant that splits its personality evenly between Italian and Japanese, so the table beside you might be ordering sushi while yours lands a lobster pizza. The room is low-lit and deliberately romantic, the kind of place where the occasion does half the work. Tasting menus and à la carte both available.

  11. Rank 210. Artifact

    Cocktail Bar

    The awards


  12. The name is a Paul Simon reference, which tells you what you're in for before you've ordered. This cocktail bar in Sheung Wan keeps things deliberately unfussy, exposed ductwork and all, with a drinks list that leans playful rather than intimidating. The Long Time Listener, a house rum with sherry and butter popcorn, suggests the team enjoys naming things as much as building them. Named a 50 Discovery by The 50.

    The awards


  13. The baked pork chop rice, buried under tomato sauce and cheese, has followed this neighbourhood eatery from its original San Wan Ho shopfront to its current Tin Hau home, and so have the regulars. Chef Wong's cooking is resolutely home-style: tea-smoked chicken, dried seafood stir-fries, steamed threadfin with yellow wine. Nothing here announces itself, which seems to be the point.

  15. Rank 215. Fireside

    Steakhouse

    The only charcoal and wood ovens in Hong Kong anchor the open kitchen here, which means the smell hits you before the menu does. Fireside is a serious steakhouse in Central, with dry-aged cuts ranging from Rubia Gallega to Hanwoo, but the fire applies equally to tuna, prawns, and sourdough with smoked butter. Ranked 18th on the World's Best Steak Restaurants list, it earns that with method and restraint rather than theatre.

  28. A specialty coffee shop in Sheung Wan where the roasting happens in-house and the staff will happily talk you through the bean origins before pulling your shot. The space is pared-back and calm, a minor miracle on a busy Hong Kong street, and the kind of room where people actually sit still for a while. Pour-overs and flat whites are the moves here.

    Neapolitan Pizzeria

    A calzone shaped like a dome and named after Vesuvius tells you everything about the mood here. Vesu is a pizza bar on the 30th floor of One Peking Road, and the Victoria Harbour light show runs behind every meal like a screen saver nobody asked for but everyone watches. The menu spans Neapolitan classics and local riffs, with duck-and-orange and char siu pork pies alongside the standards. It ranked on 50 Top Pizza Asia-Pacific.

  82. Rank 285. Draft Land

    Cocktail Bar

    Cocktails on tap, poured like craft beer, from a menu of pre-batched drinks that have been quietly winning over skeptics for years. This two-location cocktail bar, from a concept Antonio Lai brought over from Taiwan, lets you explore the menu with minimal commitment, which suits both the curious and the indecisive equally well. The flavor pairings lean local, with chrysanthemum, pu'er, and oolong showing up alongside the gin and vodka. Purists may grumble; regulars just order another round.

  84. A minimalist specialty coffee shop tucked into a quiet lane off the Wan Chai bustle, where the pour-over gets the kind of careful attention usually reserved for things that cost a lot more. The room is spare by design, which means the laptops outnumber the menus and no one rushes you out. It's a calm little pocket in a neighborhood that doesn't do calm easily.

  87. Rank 291. Foxglove

    Cocktail Bar

    A golden propeller turns slowly against blue velvet curtains while the art-deco ceiling panels make you feel like you've wandered into a first-class cabin sometime around 1935. This cocktail bar in Central takes a fictional globetrotter as its muse, running the drinks menu through different eras of cocktail history. The private room goes full Orient Express. Wear something that doesn't embarrass the room.

  90. Rank 291. Stockton

    Cocktail Bar

    Finding Stockton requires ducking down a narrow alley off Wyndham Street, turning left before a blind door, and climbing a staircase that deposits you into a cocktail bar dressed as a 1890s London gentleman's club. Braces-clad bartenders, house rules, and a serious whiskey list give it the full post-Milk & Honey treatment, and the retro London theme lands differently here, given Hong Kong's own colonial past. Difford's Guide awards it five stars.


  91. Rank 291. The Aubrey

    Japanese

    The cocktail menu at this sleek bar on the 25th floor of the Mandarin Oriental is organized like an art collection, which tells you most of what you need to know. The current program leans into Japanese aesthetics, with milk-washed clarified drinks and shochu turning up where you might expect whisky. The room draws a polished crowd happy to pay Mandarin prices for the view and the craft, and on both counts the bar delivers.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
