Yards of Awesome

This place is such an important addition to the Hong Kong F&B scene at a time when it’s so needed. So yes, we’ve all heard of Yardley Brothers, but to have fresh beer being poured for you straight from the keg in Central, rather than the trip to Lamma Islnd is special. Do they do anything different from other bars? Hell yeah! How about arriving hot and sweaty from the Hong Kong afternoon and being provided with a frozen towel blessed with lemongrass. Fancy a snack?

This place is such an important addition to the Hong Kong F&B scene at a time when it’s so needed. So yes, we’ve all heard of Yardley Brothers, but to have fresh beer being poured for you straight from the keg in Central, rather than the trip to Lamma Islnd is special. Do they do anything different from other bars? Hell yeah! How about arriving hot and sweaty from the Hong Kong afternoon and being provided with a frozen towel blessed with lemongrass. Fancy a snack? Try their very own biltong cradled in a tapioca shell that adds a cracking crunch to the initial bites and then it steps back allowing the supreme biltong to take centre stage…and then the beer. Pfff…it’s awesome. Sit and read a book. Relax and chat to the friendly bar staff. And if you like music…well…yeah…music with integrity is who the Yardley bros surround themselves with…it’s part and parcel to their life so you can be rest assured it’s none of that ‘silly-standard-bar-crap-blah-blah-what-the-hell-is-this-nonsense’ type stuff. It’s good…like their beer and their chef!

Am I giving it 5/5? No…though it does deserve it! So, why not? Well it gets packed pretty quickly which is great, but not unless you’re hoping to get a seat. However…what most people don’t know is the breeze that blows down the top of Peel Street towards the harbour is perhaps one of the delights of enjoying a catch up with friends. Stand up outside on the pavement and enjoy!
