Central has so many coffee shops and new ones keep popping up. So, not surprisingly, I came across a new one called Coffee Central by Coffee Exchange. Coffee Exchange is a coffee chain from Korea and is their first branch in Hong Kong.The entrance leads to the basement.Downstairs is a very spacious area with plenty of seats that a far far apart.

The entrance leads to the basement.
Downstairs is a very spacious area with plenty of seats that a far far apart. So, there is no cramped feeling. The middle is a central area where you order, pay and they prepare the food.
When I arrived, they had a afternoon tea sets. Menu is in English and Chinese. There is no 10% service charge.
I ordered the Delight Set ($68). This included a soup, fruit salad, cake, mini sandwich and coffee or tea. You get pager and it'll ring when it's ready for you to pick up.
It came with a soup of the day and that was cream of pumpkin. Fairly creamy with a rich sweet pumpkin taste. It was pretty good.
The fruit salad was a decent portion and included watermelon, cantelope and honeydew. It was fresh and delightfully cold.
The mini sandwich was definitely a small square and a bit disappointing. It was tuna but there really wasn't much filling. It came with a daily cake and this was a slice of lemon meringue pie. This was pretty good! The pastry was crumbly and not hard. The lemon curd was sharp. All was balanced out by the meringue which was gratefully toasted.
I chose a latte and it was pretty average. It was ok but it wasn't great. Much like a lot of Korean coffee. It's always ok but not great.
For $68, you get basically a meal. A good option for a late lunch especially when Central is always so hard to find a spot to eat during lunch time so you can come right after the lunch crowd leaves. Environment is quiet and wifi is strong. I'll be back.
