Aberdeen & South Hong Kong Island
The clientele at this far-flung branch of the Irish pub are mostly folks from nearby offices and luxury residences. The terrace with giant parasols and ocean views is lively on weekends. While the grown-ups sip champagne or watch live sports on the large screens, young ones can enjoy themselves in the children's play area.
Happy hour is 4pm to 8pm. If you prefer taking the metro, ride to Wong Chuk Hang station and change to minibus 69A.
