It is minutes other popular gay night destinations in Central. Cozy and private environment for people to chill out and mingle over fine wine, cocktails and good music.

  Comments from Utopians:

  "Comfortable decor. Great cocktails. I tried Passion and Hippie and liked them both. I also liked it when they opened the sliding doors during Happy Hour. Since it's on a back alley, you enjoy more privacy and peace. The crowd gathers at early hours. In the last two weeks, people started to crush in at 10:30pm on Fri and Sat, staying until around 1-1:30am before hopping to either Volume, Zoo or Déjà Vu. It's a good first destination right after dinner. I don't see a dominant type of clientele yet; it's a pretty good mix of Chinese, Asian, white, mature, young. It may still be their opening honeymoon. In any case, we need more venues for gays to hang out in Hong Kong." -- CircleB, May 14, 2010

• Volume
  LG/F 83-85 Hollywood Rd (see map, corner of Aberdeen), Central, 2857-7683, email. Aberdeen side entrance is sometimes closed in which case enter at the back side of the club on the hillside staircase. This late night and after-hours cocktail and music venue has a nice mix of gay locals, ex-pats and visitors. Long J-shaped bar with table and couch seating around the space, VIP nook and even a small performance/dance area. Flashy kitch decor accents set the fun dial on high. Well-placed mirrors for preening and cruising. Beats range from drum and bass, to electro, uplifting trance, hard house, progressive house and occasional lashings of high camp mash-ups of 80s hits. Volume pumps up the latest tracks from around the globe.

  Comments from Utopians:

  "Volume seems to have lost it's mojo - used to be cool and friendly, now seems busy and not as friendly. Lots of attitude these days." -- danny74, Jun 9, 2010

• Zoo
  33 Jervois St (see map, at Mercer St), Sheung Wan, 3583-1200.

  Comments from Utopians:

  "Zoo, where Rice Bar used to be, is officially open. It's chilled and relaxed, reasonably sleek and roomy (they got rid of the big bar counter that used to get in the way)." -- TheQueen, Jul 3, 2009

• New Wally Matt Lounge
  G/F 5A, Humphrey's Avenue (just off Nathan Rd, a few steps from the A-2 exit of the MTR), TST, 2721-2568, email. Very friendly neighborhood bar with a warm, pub-like ambience. It's a popular spot for a pint after work, and gets very busy after 9pm. There is a computer for those customers who want to check their email, or just surf the Net free. The crowd is a nice mix of locals who like foreigners, expats and visitors. Lots of smiles all around.九龍尖沙咀堪富利士道5A地下
• Wally Matt Lounge
  Lower G/F 72B Kimberley Rd, TST, Kowloon, 2367-6874, email. The original Wally Matt is still as busy as ever, with more of a Chinese clientele than its sister bar (see above). A lovely pub -- sort of postmodern Kowloon flavor, with Chinese poems about friendship inside glass blocks, set into brushed aluminum walls, and cast iron incense cones hanging from the ceiling. There is a lounge area, with tables and chairs, a large L-shaped bar. The staff are very friendly (and cute!). 九龍尖沙咀金巴利道72B號地庫

HONG KONG ISLAND -- Central, Lan Kwai Fong
• Propaganda
  B/F 1 Hollywood Rd (see map), Central, 2868-1316. When you get to the address, go down the steps and behind the building to find the entrance. The club is divided into a disco floor (very crowded on weekends and after 1am nightly) and a conversation bar. Busiest after the other nearby gay bars close. Stays open until as late as possible. Expensive. 香港中環荷李活道1號低層

  Comments from Utopians:

  "Propaganda is still an odd place - weird music, lots of desperados and expensive. If you are western you do get a lot of attention though." -- danny74, Jun 9, 2010
