The Place In what has become a standout in an area with a really established coffee culture, Halfway Coffee is perhaps one of my favourite spots for coffee. There’s something really interesting about the little joint sandwiched between two laneways in Sheung Wan. You know you’re in for a bit of a different experience when…

18 Grams @ Sheung Wan
The Place Right across from the A2 exit at Sheung Wan MTR station is one of the best little coffee spots in the area. 18 Grams is a specialty coffee joint and has a roaster attached to the business (coincidentally in my local hood at Wanchai – see post here). The boys at 18 Grams…
Lof 10: minimalism in Sheung Wan
The Place Get ready to walk up steps and plenty of them. Visiting Lof 10 in Sheung Wan is a study in determination and exercise. Once you’ve ascended to the funky coffee joint that has a very minimalist look and feel, you’ll need a cup of ice cold water; which thankfully we were given once…

Barista Jam at Sheung Wan
The Place There are parts of Sheung Wan that still feel a lot like old Hong Kong and walking through the streets to find Barista Jam was like straddling the old and new. If you didn’t know where to go, it would be easy to get lost looking for Barista Jam, but luckily I was…
The Mixing Bowl
The Place Sheung Wan is one of the thriving coffee hubs in Hong Kong and uber cool Gough Street is home to a couple of baristas worth watching. Midway up a steep set of steps of Shin Hing Street is The Mixing Bowl, a cafe that is dedicated to the art of baking, which has…
