Great little place literally 2 minutes away from our hotel. Another really annoying situation where we found this on our last morning and it was so good. Really good value for Hong Kong which on the whole for food is crazy expensive to eat western food. My wife loved the coffee and the yoghurt bowl was a perfect ratio of yoghurt to granola. Fruit was superb also. If youre staying locally make this your go to breakfast spot - especially on your first day. We went all over hong kong island and this was the best in 5 attempts at breakfast
Nice vibes but food was really mediocre. Got the halibut risotto which was pretty spenny & it just tasted like tomato with rice 🥹 small portion of fish too. Chicken salad was quite dry. Coffee was decent though
Such a fantastic find just steps from our hotel! ️ The barista is a true pro—the lattes and Americanos were brewed to perfection, showcasing the rich flavor profile of the premium beans. I also highly recommend the Bacon Benedict; it was incredibly tasty and came with a crisp fresh salad tossed in balsamic vinegar. A perfect start to the day
Nice chill spot at Pause It in North Point. Their latte art is really impressive — ordered a swan and a camel, both beautifully done. The Peppermint Mocha was refreshing and not too sweet, while the Flat White had smooth milk foam. The Tiramisu French Toast was delicious, especially with the espresso served separately so you can pour it yourself. Cozy minimalist interior, perfect for a relaxed coffee break. Worth a visit if you love good latte art!
The cafe is set in a quiet neighbourhood of Fortress Hill. We had one dish to share, nice of them to provide sharing plates but somehow the egg of the Shashrutka tasted rubbery? For the coffee it was great, good taste and also nice latte art. The hot chocolate drink was delicious too. If you order a food item you can get 20hkd off your drink. Overall nice cafe to check out if you are around this area, otherwise they also have other outlets.
