Famous mainly for its insane happy hour (which I think has been done away with – they still do some all-you-can-drink deal before 7), Stone Nullah Tavern (SNT) is a quiet neighbourhood bar in Wanchai, around the corner from Hopewell Center. As far as drinks go, it has all the standard cocktail fare, including three good beers on tap (last night was Young Master, Pilsner Urquell and I think Rogue Dead Guy), and more than the average number of wines for a bar.

As far as drinks go, it has all the standard cocktail fare, including three good beers on tap (last night was Young Master, Pilsner Urquell and I think Rogue Dead Guy), and more than the average number of wines for a bar. There’s quite a few choices of whiskey too, but it’s not really my thing so not sure if they’re good.
While it's a fine bar, I'm here to promote the food: It’s my 6th time there and I’ve never considered writing a review for it (it’s a bar!), but the food served there is actually outstanding and deserves some press.
A more American take on the gastropub, SNT dishes out some seriously excellent comfort food that elevates the classics while maintaining their accessibility.
Last night we had:
BBQ Chicken Pizza – It wasn’t my choice to try this (BBQ sauce on pizza??) but it was surprisingly fantastic. It’s more of a flatbread pizza so the “crust” is bit thicker than a usual pizza, but was still crispy and chewy enough to form a base for generous amounts of cheese, chicken and onions. It’s a bit of a mess for pizza purists but I can’t deny that it was tasty. There’s a Margherita pizza too which looks great.
½ Butter Roasted Chicken – Juicy and expertly roasted, with the skin a delicious and crunchy golden-brown – they also do a Korean BBQ style which I’m curious to try
Pork Cheek Chili Breadbowl – I’ve been coming here for this chili breadbowl for quite some time; covered with melted cheese and sour cream and served in a fresh breadbowl. The bread really works as an accompaniment, and it’s one of the best chilis in town, though it could be a smidge spicier.
Smoked Cauliflower with some kind of Curry sauce – Thought the sauce made the dish a bit wetter than it needed to be but as a side vegetable it was still delicious.
Although it’s not the cheapest place, the variety, quality and style of food is unique enough to justify its premium. Along with the Globe and maybe Stockton, SNT is one of the few bars in HK where I can say the food alone makes it worth a visit. Check it out!
