Sevva

We can’t say enough good things about SEVVA, the super swanky and quintessentially Hong Kong favourite. Head to the upper levels of Prince's Building to take in their exceptional hospitality and iconic views. This might just be one of our favourite terraces to soak in the city skyline, complimented with delicious, pan-asian dishes and refreshing cocktails. It’s glamorous, it’s fabulous, it’s everything we love about Hong Kong.

Popinjays

You don’t need to book a room to enjoy the beautiful views from The Murray hotel. Their rooftop restaurant Popinjays is a sleek place to spend an evening watching the world go by. The name refers to both a bird (a little nod to the city’s resident cockatoos!) and a flamboyant and fashionable person, which perfectly describes this vibrant venue. The restaurant is surrounded by a 420 square meter outdoor terrace, that’s the perfect space to sip on their classic cocktails or maybe even nibble on some afternoon tea.
