A stone’s throw away from Blue House, this new coffee shop has proven to be just as exceptional as Wanchai’s historic landmark. Expect to taste new flavours with every visit as founder Jasper Yiu switches out the coffee beans every two months, introducing beans from the Philippines, Thailand and beyond. He was ranked 14th at the World Brewers Cup in 2021 and placed 2nd in the Hong Kong Brewers Cup in the same year.

Situated right next to a public sitting area, the coffee shop often draws a crowd who take the opportunity to lounge in the sun as they sip on coffee and chat away. Crew’s dirty coffee is concocted with homemade floral-flavoured milk and a single-origin fruity espresso layered on top.

KLF Coffee

A good cup of coffee for less than HK$30 is unheard of — until KLF coffee in Wanchai came along. The “K” in KLF comes from the Cantonese word for “poor” (窮 kung4), alluding to the coffee shop’s motto “sip your way to affordable excellence”. One of our favourites is KLF’s dirty — smooth and well-balanced.
