Hong Kong contains a few Japanese style micro-cocktail bars, but the best is b.a.r. Executive Bar, a rare pocket of serenity in the bustling Causeway Bay. Like other establishments of its ilk, Executive Bar enforces a minimum charge, serves only a handful of people at a time and is always remarkably formal. But it’s this hushed sophistication and attention to detail that have made the bar a popular respite.

Known For
  • craft cocktails
  • bar food
What to drink
Fruits like tiny sweet strawberries and fragrant musk melons are flown in daily from Japan, so fruit cocktails are a must. Also worth a try are the simple drinks—Martinis, Gin and Tonics—as the bartenders always have their own inventive twists on the classics.
Neighborhood
Causeway Bay
ProTip
This is not your typical bar; there is a minimum charge of HK$250 per person (approximately USD $32), and large groups are not welcome—loud talking is likely to raise some eyebrows.
