Tucked away on the second floor of the Ferry pier (just outside the gate for ferry departure gate from Tsim Sha Tsui to Central), you can find the very first coffee shop of Arabica % in Hong Kong. It is less than 5 minutes walk from the very crowded Ocean Terminal shopping mall but this spot is relatively quiet and cool for just a coffee! Not much seats inside this branch, but you can enjoy your takeaway coffee along the high stools outside the shop or even on the ferry across the Victoria Harbour (which is very beautiful). I am sure this is going to be a very unique way of enjoying your latte.

Wanchai might not have as many coffee shops as you may find in Central or Kennedy town, but we know the best place for you to have a nice cup of coffee and some nice bakery (just next door!). NOC coffee is originated from HK and they are growing fast now, with 5 branches in HK side. This branch in Wanchai is relatively small and hiidden compared to others, but still you can find a couple of high stools along the window in the alleyway. Next door you can find the Bakehouse, which always have a long line outside for their delicious bakery (takeaway is available!). The coffee shop is just less than 10 mins walk from Wanchai MTR station.
