Hong Kong

Gay/Lesbian entertainment in Hong Kong

  1. A

    New Wally Matt Lounge

    The name comes from the old Waltzing Matilda pub, which was one of the daggiest gay watering holes in creation. But New Wally Matt is an upbeat and busy place and actually more a pub than a lounge.

    Rice Bar

    Rice is a popular gay bar in Sheung Wan with a lounge area that sees a bit of dancing as it gets later. It can get very crowded at the weekend.

    DYMK

    An excellent, upmarket gay-friendly newcomer, DYMK (or ‘does your mother know?’) caters to a discerning crowd of professionals who lounge in the dimly but stylishly lit booths. There’s an extensive wine list and cocktails including the Thai Me Up and the Pinch My Peach. Reach it through the basement staircase in Eden, the organic bistro next door.

    Bliss

    What was a popular post-work suit hang-out called Liquid then a sophisticated lounge/dance bar called NU has metamorphosed into Hong Kong's newest low-key gay club, with two bars and ultra-sophisticated lounge. You can't miss the joint; it's next to eye-popping Rock Candy.

    Tony’s Bar

    This low-key, anonymous and – it has to be said – very down-at-heel gay-friendly bar just behind Mirador Mansion is a relaxed place to come for a drink, with none of that ‘last chance for romance’ tension found in some other gay venues.

    Lipstick Lounge

    This Japanese restaurant in the Times Square shopping mall, with out-of-this-world décor (cable vines, rondo lounges, faux birch forest) transforms each night into the camp Lipstick Lounge.
