Help! I need to know a cool bar near Pacific Place urgently...

Hey there...newish to Hong Kong, been here twice before in the last year for a week each time and just arrived again this time for 3 months

Please can someone help me...I need to know a cool and trendy bar to go to before an expensive dinner, the bar needs to be in 1 or 2 Pacific Place or maybe nearby in JW Marriot or Conrad or at least near Admiralty.

If you can walk from that bar to Pacific Place without getting in the heat/humidity that would be a bonus!

Does such a place exist???

Thanks!

Thanks! 2 questions...

Thanks so much for getting back to me in 2 minutes man...

2 questions: (1) will it be open as early as 5pm on a weekday? (2) can you walk from there to Pac Place 2 easily? like on one of those underground walkways or whatever...i had a look on centamap and it looks like one of those awkward distances - to short for a cab but a bit of a longish walk if you're all dressed up and have to suffer the heat...

btw, had a look at it on worldsbestbars.com - looks nice. but they don't seem to have their own website?

bit of a problem

looks like a nice place, but doesnt open until 6pm...and even at that time it'd probably be a bit dead. could be an excellent place to go after dinner though.

i need something open about 5pm-ish. yeah i know it is lamely early but there is a specific reason...

any suggestions anyone?

Stick to one of the hotel bars / restaurants then ... plenty of very decent facilities in indoor walking range.

Dan Ryan's is a fairly decent bar and it's open all day. I don't know about it being cool or trendy though.

Alternatively, try Grappas. Good food and it's open early. Dan Ryan's and Grappas are both in Pacific Place.
