Review Date: 09 Nov 2008
281 Gloucester Road, B/F The Excelsior Hotel, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong
Dark, wood and cricket

This is located in a easy to miss place. Once you enter the hotel main doors, look for a tiny doorway to bring you to the basement entrance of this bar.

The decor is very masculine, lots of dark stained wood and sports related stuff like cricket and footy is very much on their place of honour on the walls.

Lunchtime brings quite an expat crowd in for their meals and a pint to go along...

mIss Piggy does work in this area thus this is the spot wherby SO rests his laurels and waits for wifey to finish...all the while nursing a pint of Hoegaaarden.

Me personally will go for the Guinness Draught. Not many places besides those with a prominent expat crowd will have this. Also the selection on tap is great.... from lagers like Stella, Hoegaarden to Kilkenny and Guinness. Service is prompt and beers served at the optimum temperatures and head.

At night it gets more vibrant, with footy nights having a crowd cheering on their favourite teams....man this is life!

 
I also recommend this place for
Type of meal:Lunch, Dinner
Occasion:Large Groups/Gathering, Boys Night Out, After Work, Chillout
Atmosphere:Vibrant/Noisy
Others:Beer Lists
