It’s that time of the year again, when we sip and stumble our way across the city to find you the best drinking dens in Hong Kong – we’re back with the 2025 edition of the annual Time Out Bar Guide! From sophisticated wine bars and venues that specialise in your favourite spirits to secret spots hidden down dark alleyways, this nifty guide will help you discover all the best places for a perfect sip, no matter the occasion.
This year, we’ve picked out 50 of the best bars in Hong Kong that are worthy of your attention, along with a handful of venues over in Macau for your next weekend trip. We also took the chance to speak with the city’s rising bar stars and put together a list of the latest bar openings in town (yes, we’ve crammed a lot in there).
The 2025 Time Out Hong Kong Bar Guide is now available for free starting June 10 at the listed venues below. Limited copies are available, so do ask each venue for more info.
