Bars and Clubs
Dragon-i The
most happening club in Central, where models, movers and shakers, and
celebrities from Jackie Chan to Sting, have been spotted. Club No. 9 One of the cocktail-drinking set’s favourite venues – grab a sofa on the balcony and enjoy the view. One Fifth Unquestionably,
this is one of Hong Kong’s buzziest bars of the moment. Take in the
fabulous crowd, soaring ceilings and big city vibe. Also written as 1/5. V13 The
enormous selection of flavoured vodkas will keep the most jaded of
drinkers occupied. Raise a glass to the thirsty inmates of Victoria
Prison opposite. 13 Old Bailey St SoHo 9803 6650
V13
Boca Spanish wines by the glass or bottle serve as the perfect accompaniment to a tapas-cum-dim sum menu. Take a table on the street. Feather Boa A former antique shop, now a bar, but with much of its old stock left in situ. Like drinking in a camp relative’s front room. 38 Staunton St, Soho 2857 2586
Club ’97’ In its heyday, Madonna and Alain Delon drank at what was Post ’97. It’s quieter now, but that’s no bad thing. Beijing Club Three floors of throbbing house, R&B and hip hop, through to as late (or early) as 9am . Fringe Club Hong Kong’s alternative arts venue offers a respite from Lan Kwai Fong’s rowdier beer halls.

Rice Bar Pioneering the trendification of this area, the Rice Bar is a natural pit stop. It has a gay vibe, but straights are welcome. 33 Jervois St, Western 2851 4800
