Mine opened recently in Lan Kwai Fong, and is the latest by the team behind Ra, Zinc, and Port. The raw industrial look that characterised Port in TST is again in evidence with rough wooden plank walls reminiscent of a mine shaft while a mine truck rumbles above the fuel station (bar). The subterranean feel continues throughout with stones wrapped around protruding surfaces. The effect is of a mine tunnel but the bar is high ceilinged open and friendly with a dance floor at the rear. The outside tables, which include some cool saddle style stools, offer prime drinking and people watching opportunities.
The drinks menu and cocktail list feature a range of themed cocktails ($120/HH$80) martinis ($120/$80) and shooters ($85/$55). Draught beer is ($78/$45) while house / premium spirits are $80/ $90. Happy hour is 5-9pm daily.
The food menu is small with interesting takes on traditional pub dishes designed to be enjoyed or shared with a drink.

Mac and Cheese Bullion

Served in an iron skillet the Mac and Cheese Bullion ($78) is macaroni and cheese rolled into balls, breaded and deep fried and served with a sauce of mayonnaise, sour cream, ketchup and chilli flakes to give it a little bite. Very tasty.
The Smoked Pork Quesadillas ($138) are filled with pulled pork, lashings of jack and cheddar cheese lightly grilled until the cheese melts and served with fresh guacamole and sour cream. Delicious.
The Bacon Chicken Fries ($98) are thin fries covered in melted cheese, bacon and grilled chicken. A lovely combination that just screams out for a topping of gravy to transform this into a delicious poutine. A touch choice here between these and the nachos.

The Chicken Waffle ($148) is a homemade waffle cut into eight and topped with cubes of grilled chicken breast, chipotle jam, jalapeño sauce, maple syrup and ranch dressing. It looks awesome and the balance of sweet and spice is perfect. The only slight problem with this dish is as the waffle cools it becomes soggy and doesn’t support the chicken. The solution, don’t let it get cold.
Served on a cast iron spade the Cuban Sandwich ($98) is pulled pork, pickles, sweet ham, yellow mustard and swiss cheese in a long bun served with a basket of fries. If you order it with the other dishes it doesn’t look quite as attractive, but it’s very filling, tasty and goes well with a cold beer/cider.

For those looking for a lighter option, the Asian Steak Salad ($128) features rib-eye steak, cubed mango, avocado, cherry tomatoes, spinach, red cabbage and a slightly sweet Thai sauce with peanuts served on the side. A tasty salad for those looking for something more healthy.
The dishes are perfect for sharing or eating alone, portion sizes are good and the food quality is well above your average pub grub fare. The option exists on most dishes to swap the main meat if for example you prefer a chicken salad / quesadilla. Mine is a fun bar for a drink that also happens to serve some nicely presented and tasty bar food.
