Hillwood 54 Cafe
If you’re longing for a slice of Seoul while wandering through Tsim Sha Tsui, step into Hillwood 54 Cafe – a warm, wood-clad sanctuary where Korean baristas craft thoughtfully balanced coffees and serve up genuine Korean comfort bites. Cool off with their velvety dalgona latte, crowned with a delicate caramelised crunch – or dive into hearty favourites like the signature tornado hot dog or gooey cheesy chapagetti. And here’s the sweetest perk: every drink comes with a complimentary photo-booth session, so you can sip, savour, and snap a stylish Seoul-worthy memory on the spot. This is more than just coffee – it’s a full K-culture moment waiting to be relived.

Espresso Tecnica
A new haven for coffee purists has landed at Cyberport: Espresso Tecnica, where devotion to the craft meets the quiet elegance of French patisserie. Nestled in a sunlit, timber-wrapped space that feels like a modern alpine cabin – all warmth and clean lines – it’s the ideal pause for digital professionals, creatives, and weekend wanderers seeking stillness without sacrificing style. Sip carefully executed lattes, or explore seasonal single-origins that speak for themselves. Pair them with butter-laminated viennoiserie that crackles just right, or surrender to thick-cut French toast draped in vanilla ice cream — simple, yet sublime. This isn’t just coffee. It’s ritual, rendered gently.

Coffee Dino
Leave the corporate rush behind and step into the airy, sun-drenched lobby of The Bay Hub in Kowloon Bay — where Coffee Dino serves up seriously good coffee with a side of whimsy. High ceilings, plush seating, and a glowing neon dino behind the counter set the tone: this is where precision meets playfulness. Sip a single-origin latte, crafted with intention, paired with a flaky, buttery pastry that melts just right. Come for the caffeine, stay for the calm – whether you’re dashing in for a takeaway or unwinding solo with your screen. The unhurried rhythm and rich scent of slow-pulled espresso make this your quiet win of the workweek.

Swallow Dive Lands in Wan Chai
Having made a name for itself in a Sheung Wan walk-up, the highly regarded Swallow Dive has now landed in a serene, street-level Wan Chai spot near the iconic Blue House. Defined by its design-led aesthetic – a passion of its owner – the café delights with thoughtful details, from beautifully knotted coffee bean bags to a curated vinyl collection behind the bar. Alongside its signature single-origin pour-overs, the new outpost now serves machine coffee, plus excellent value pastries like a sharp lemon roll cake. Nab an early seat to enjoy a latte and the morning sun; it’s a beautifully composed spot that’s well worth the dive.

Bringing new energy to Hong Kong’s café culture with transcontinental charm is Twist on Coffee Club. Led by the team behind Superhooman, this New York-inspired haunt retains its predecessor’s red-brick grit while launching a globally minded menu that’s already igniting Instagram buzz. From Seoul’s sizzling iron-skillet French toast drenched in vanilla custard to Kyoto-esque parfaits crowned with house-made miso ice cream, the offerings defy borders – all served against a backdrop of exposed pipes and minimalist steel. Not to be missed: the ‘Orange Sea,’ a layered espresso-cream cocktail that rewrites coffee rules, and seasonal parfaits bursting with jewel-like tea jellies and matcha warabi mochi. With brunch staples like beetroot Benedict and coconut lattes rounding out its creative lineup, this is the spot where industrial style meets dessert-forward daydreams.

Sunday Morning Coffee
With a compact design spread across two half-levels (a layout preserved from its predecessor), don’t be deceived by Sunday Morning Coffee’s unassuming size – their menu impressively fills a full A4 page, featuring house-made treats from scones to indulgent cups.

Emphasising freshness, delights like the Banoffee tart are assembled to order on a crisp base. Meanwhile, their house-roasted Brazilian coffee beans anchor a selection that delivers genuine value and injects a fresh energy into the neighbourhood – a true morning light for coffee and pastry lovers.

No Sleep Club
Discover the colonial charm of Hong Kong at this hidden gem tucked inside the Fringe Club. Set within the former refrigerated vault of the 1890s Dairy Farm complex – now a Grade I heritage landmark – No Sleep Club preserves the original white-tiled walls that once kept meats chilled and now tell stories of the city’s history. Creating an art-deco retreat, where rotating local paintings hang beneath vaulted brick ceilings, you’ll be enjoying your flat white with a front-row view of Hong Kong’s vibrant creative scene. Enjoy a nutty Cappuccino alongside emerging artworks, or awaken your senses with the Matcha Coconut Water – an earthy-sweet blend swirling beneath century-old arches.

Though compact and mainly takeaway-focused, this independent java spot overflows with personality and an impressive variety. The owner-operator’s passion shines through the extensive, wallet-friendly menu: inventive lattes infused with peanut or durian flavours alongside solid staples like 12-hour steeped Cold Brew, plus a true East-meets-West breakfast selection featuring pineapple buns, char siu sandwiches (starting just above HKD$10), and pasta.
All Day Parfait, Shop A, G/F, Wealth Court, 98 Tarik Luk Street, San Po Kong, Kowloon, Hong Kong, Instagram: @earlybirdgetthecoffee
All Day Parfait
Emerging as Hong Kong’s first dedicated parfait spot, All Day Parfait channels Tokyo’s nocturnal ‘Yoru Parfait’ culture.

July’s New Café Openings
No Title
Slip into day‑dream mode at No Title, Sheung Wan’s photogenic ‘goldfish tank’ café – founded by a Guizhou‑born barista. Inside its cream‑white walls, sunlight ricochets off reusable glass takeaway cups (return one for a HKD$2 sustainability nod!). Award‑winning Captain George beans fuel single‑origin pour‑overs as well as some playful signatures: an osmanthus‑scented latte with a whisper of sweetness, a Glacier Americano streaked electric‑blue with citrus syrup, and a pistachio‑crusted lamington sculpted in an in‑house 3‑D mould. Pocket‑sized but big on character, No Title transforms the climb up Gough Street’s back‑alley steps into a layover of mellow beats, custom brews, and goldfish‑gazing calm.
No Title, G/F, 51 Gough Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong Instagram: @notitlehk_
Doppio
Doppio has arrived on First Street in Sai Ying Pun, reimagining a quiet corner into a grab-and-go coffee hotspot with its ‘Americano on tap’ faucet installation – a photo spot that’s earned instant Instagram fame. Specialising in takeaway only, the shop pours HKD$40 lattes and HKD$55 peach mocktails alongside iced classics and house-made frappés. While no seating means you’ll be on the move, Doppio’s efficient service, refreshing summer drinks, and homage to local coffee lore (this address once hosted the beloved ‘Fei Lo’ café) create a spirited pit stop for commuters, dog-walkers, and anyone craving a cool caffeine fix under the summer sun.
Doppio, Shop 7, Shun Tai Building, First Street, Sai Ying Pun, Hong Kong, Instagram: @doppio_syp
Venner
Born from Elin and Nelson’s beloved café Hjem, Venner (‘friends’ in Norwegian) distills Scandinavian simplicity into a bright new setting. The founders keep their ‘quality over quantity’ approach but broaden the scope: by day, a café serving rye cardamom buns, kladdkaka, and limited-batch skoleboller; by night, a low-intervention wine bar pouring natural bottles that complement the bakes. The design mirrors the shift. Dark wood panelling remains, yet cream accents and floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the room in light. Plush armchairs yield to a tiled bar counter that invites conversation – while handmade vases, pantry jars, and branded housewares carry the aesthetic beyond the table. In a city short on space and time, Venner turns slow living into something sociable and lightly buzzed – one sip, one bite, and Oslo suddenly feels much closer.
Venner, 161 Hollywood Road, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong, Instagram: @vennerhk
Ice Bean
A few steps from Quarry Bay’s Monster Building, this hideaway is the perfect air-conditioned pause after a photo walk. The highlight? An ultra-creamy Hokkaido Milk soft-serve (HKD$33), plus a ‘Monster’ affogato (HKD$42) that gently swirls espresso through cool ice cream. The drinks are well tuned – don’t miss the smooth, earthy matcha latte (HKD$42) – while buttery scones and cupcakes round out the menu. No flash, no fuss – just a quiet gem worth adding to your summer list.
Ice Bean, Shop 7, Yick Fat Building, No. 1048 King‘s Road, Quarry Bay, Hong Kong, Instagram: @ice_bean_hk
Third Coffee Roastery
At first glance, Third Coffee Roastery’s inaugural café could be mistaken for a sleepy neighbourhood nook. Step inside, though, and a pint-sized drum roaster purrs beneath shelves of 30-gram ‘test-tube’ sample packs – filling the air with the aroma of freshly cracked beans while regulars trade tasting notes. There’s no kitchen – just endless trays of feather-light madeleines for dunking – but eight ever-rotating coffees cover the spectrum, from fruit-forward Ethiopians to brooding dark roasts and a mellow decaf. Most evenings, the team lingers well past 7pm, roasting and pouring off-menu ‘night coffees’ for anyone who wanders in.
Third Coffee Roastery, Shop 13, 26 Kin Tak Street, Yuen Long, New Territories, Hong Kong, thirdhk.com
Again Limited
Again Limited brings a wallet-friendly coffee counter to Sheung Wan’s ever-crowded caffeine map. The compact kiosk keeps things casual – mostly takeaway, with a few stools for quick sips – yet punches above its size with a smoky hazelnut house blend pulled into HKD$26 espressos and velvety HKD$32 lattes. Non-dairy milks or an extra shot? The barista simply nods and adds it at no extra charge, reinforcing an easygoing welcome that already has neighbourhood regulars queuing. Drinks only for now, but the promise of pastries to come makes this laid-back nook one to watch.

Knockbox Lands In Shek Mun
A specialty-coffee pioneer, Knockbox pushes into new territory with a takeaway-first roastery just three minutes from Shek Mun MTR. Tucked inside Technology Park, the glass-walled shop lets you watch a Stronghold machine in full roast mode while you order. The tight menu keeps it simple – HKD$28 batch brews, oat-milk iced lattes, and light house-made bakes – backed by the same craft-roasting ethos and indie spirit that have sustained Knockbox for 14 years in a city where cafés seldom survive for four.

June’s New Café Openings
Full Nature Roastery
True to its ‘farm-to-fork’ ethos, the café garnishes each plate with herbs and edible flowers grown in its own hydroponic garden – nature at its freshest. The cool-toned wooden décor creates a serene, distraction-free setting for lunch, while the menu goes well beyond coffee: think all-day breakfasts on house-made sourdough, loaded bagels, bright salads, and comforting pastas. Save room for the Corn Mousse with Caramel – an airy, cob-shaped custard paired with crunchy cornflake clusters for irresistible texture.
Full Nature Roastery, 3 Yuen Yuen Street, Happy Valley, Hong Kong, Instagram: @fnroastery
Syut Syut
Sham Shui Po’s newest café, Syut Syut, marries contemporary Japanese touches with nourishing plates – its signature draw is a tomato-based udon crowned with either chicken or salmon steak. The shop skips Wednesdays and opens later than most (11:30am), but it makes up for it by serving straight through to 9pm, perfect for lingering lunches or laid-back dinners. Bonus: you might spot Ki Lung Street’s resident cat, Goldie (‘Gum Zai’), on patrol while you dine.

In conjunction with the opening, it’s introduced a Hojicha Caramel Pudding, garnished with fresh cream and a sprig of mint, served in handcrafted ceramics by local artisans at Hama Pottery. But the experience goes beyond desserts – its Japanese fusion savoury dishes are equally impressive, generous in portion and rich in taste.
