Our wellness mantra is ‘everything in balance’ and that’s especially true when it comes to alcohol. Regardless of your wellness resolutions, it’s hard to deny how difficult it is to completely avoid the bar scene in Hong Kong without completely overhauling your corporate and social schedules. In lieu of going cold turkey on drinks, we’ve sourced some of the best healthy bars in Hong Kong for clean cocktails. From quality ingredients to low or no-alcohol options to sustainable practices, these are the feel-good bars that will make that work party or girls night out a little less sinful.

The Old Man

Awarded number one in Asia’s 50 Best Bars, The Old Man is an intimate speakeasy hidden down an alley off Aberdeen Street. Its small menu uses a variety of adventurous and unusual techniques to create magical drinks, including two cocktails using the alcohol-free distilled drink Seedlip for health-conscious drinkers; African Safari is our personal favourite.
