Bad Coffee & Liquor Club
Follow the scent of beans by day, bitters by night—this Yau Ma Tei time capsule does both
Tucked inside a commercial passage of the 1960s Alhambra Building, this intimate eight-seater channels old Hong Kong through retro-industrial details and soft lighting. The double life is straightforward: specialty coffee with warm, nutty undertones occupies the daylight hours; come evening, the focus shifts to classic and Asian-inspired cocktails. The Nin’s blend stands out with traditional HK cough syrup, while the elderflower offers balanced strength. With barely room for a handful of patrons, the atmosphere turns personal, almost secretive, with friendly staff guiding you through a concise menu.
Tatler Tip
Arrive before sunset and claim one of the eight seats before the evening crowd descends. Order an Americano as the light softens through the windows, then stay for the first cocktail—the room’s shift in mood is the real show.
