And they’re bringing coffee to the table

Popular cocktail bar Draft Land expands across the harbour to Tsim Sha Tsui

Draft Land, the popular cocktail bar that began as a concept from Taipei, is expanding across Victoria Harbour to Tsim Sha Tsui on August 3. The new outpost will sit on Minden Avenue and operate under a dual-concept model. From 8am to 5pm, visitors can enjoy local coffee brand nodi's offerings, including a range of baked goods and a special elderflower coffee soda for $48, which blends espresso, elderflower syrup, and sparkling soda.

At 5pm, the venue transforms into Draft Land, where a massive wall of 24 taps serves familiar cocktails like the Thirsty Collins, Guk Bou, and Oolong Tea Collins, along with three new coffee-infused drinks. These include the Really Really Dark & Stormy ($100) – a spicy twist on the classic Dark & Stormy with cold brew, fresh ginger juice, and honey – the Coconut Punch ($120), a tropical Scotch-based milk punch with hojicha, coconut, and almond and vanilla notes, and the Caferoni ($120), a caffeinated Negroni made with bourbon, cacao, sherry, and vermouth.

The food menu has also expanded to include more substantial dishes, such as Southeast Asian-inspired pork neck ($108), harissa octopus ($138), 'Takoyaki' fishballs ($98) inspired by street food, and a Japanese curry beef toasty ($128). The design of the new Kowloon location steers away from the raw industrial aesthetic of its sister bars, opting for warm earthy tones, wooden fixtures, and a semi-outdoor seating area, providing an al fresco experience while watching Tsim Sha Tsui come alive.
