Bar Leone has once again secured the title of the World’s Best Bar, marking its second consecutive victory. This prestigious recognition came at the 18th edition of The 50 Best Bars’ live awards ceremony held in Milan on October 7. The list, which showcases exceptional drinking spots from 26 cities, features Bar Leone at the top spot.
Co-founded by Lorenzo Antinori and Justin Shun Wah, the bar brings a taste of traditional Roman bars to Hong Kong with popular cocktails, warm hospitality, delicious mortadella sandwiches, and addictive smoked olives.
In addition to Bar Leone, three other Hong Kong bars made it to the top 50 list: Argo at the Four Seasons Hong Kong at No. 25, Montana at No. 36, and Gokan at No. 41. Montague, co-founded by Antinori and Simone Caporale, serves their favorite coffee cocktail in the city. Gokan's founder, the renowned mixologist Shingo Gokan, was also honored with the Roku Industry Icon Award.
Other notable Hong Kong bars on the list include Alquímicico in Cartagena at No. 3, Bar Us in Bangkok at No. 4, and Line in Athens, which rounds off the top five bars in the world this year.
