A Quick Escape From The Hustle Of The City: Hap Coffee is the latest addition to the Kowloon Tong neighborhood, offering the area a quick caffeine boost on the weekdays and an afternoon recharge on the weekends.

Look & Feel: Finding Hap Coffee inside a boutique shopping arcade from the ’80s, you wouldn’t expect the café to be as modern as it looks. Dominated by a bright interior occasionally accented with light wooden furniture, Hap Coffee is a cozy coffee spot every clean girl wants in their neighborhood.

On The Menu: As suggested by its name, coffee is the forte in the new café. Besides your regular latte and black coffee, the house is also serving a speciality Orange Black and Expresso Tonic to cool you down in the hot summer days. While some guests might want to fizzle out the heat with a glass of Espresso Tonic, others with a more experimental palate might want to try Orange Black, where the citrusy orange juice meets a bold touch of espresso, creating a refreshing combo you didn’t know you needed.

Besides the coffee ranges, Hap Coffee is also here to satisfy your cravings for Japanese café fares. And baked goods are the complement to your coffees that can never go wrong: crusty toast, soft cookies, affogatos and trendiest croffle with ice cream toppings, to name a few. The house also provides a vast range of main dishes, including all-day breakfasts, creamy pasta dishes and Korean-inspired cold noodles, to ensure your stay is worthwhile.

Great For: Coffee catch-ups, weekend brunches.

FYI: The café closes one hour early at 6pm on Sundays.
