Quinary

The Quinary is another great bar on Hollywood road right in the heart of Soho. This place has become very popular among locals and tourists alike. The interior is quite stylish with a long bar, high tables and stools.
Service here is excellent, attentive, knowledgeable and very friendly. The bar tenders are super helpful and they are happy to assist you with finding the right drink. Sitting at the bar it’s just fun to watch them mix drinks!
They have a huge list of cocktails containing not only your classic ones. It takes time to read the menu for sure! Apart from cocktails they have a huge selection of different whisky’s covering different parts of the world. Just look at the stacked bottles behind the bar, it’s a great view!
The Quinary may be expensive but worth every penny.

Maybe I am spoiled (I am) by NYC speakeasies but these are baby drinks. People are nice but.
Oh, and it’s 174 HKD for a micro-​Martini

Quinary is one of the best bars that I have gone to.
I’ve been to a good amount of bars that specialize in crafted cocktails: from New York to Seattle to Las Vegas and yet Quinary just sticks out as one of the best. Why is it not THE best? Well, I don’t live in Hong Kong! It’s not remotely near me at all! Granted, that may be a good thing because I might just be at Quinary all the time if it was near me and that could be a little troublesome.
I originally found Quinary on a website that recommended it. and with their interesting concoctions, I just had to drag my boyfriend and best friend to go!
The place was very clean and classy looking. When we got in, we decided to sit right at the bar — it gives the greatest views. We were able to watch them work their magic and make their yummy looking drinks. For a small spot, they had a decent amount of drinks on their menu. Not only do they have drinks, they also have some small plates/​tapas available for you to order if you wanted some food. Since we went right after dinner, we decided to skip on the small plates.
We got to try several drinks that night:
Marshmallow Duo
Oolong Tea Collins
Pisco Lime Sour
Checkers
Snowy Soda
Two Leaves
Yuan Yang
Every drink is like a masterpiece. All the flavors blended in together very well. Nothing was abnormally strong to my taste buds, which is really hard to come by when a majority of the bases that they use are gin or whiskeys. They have a real passion for the art and it’s refreshing to be able to see that in their work and creations.
It is also very refreshing to see cocktails that uses tea. It’s very rare for me to see those in cocktails and I never really knew why. It’s not a very common thing in the States. All the drinks that I have tried that incorporated tea in it, such as the Oolong Tea Collins and Two Leaves, were all very delicious. They have drinks where they use smoke, they have drinks where they carbonate the drink themselves, and they have drinks where they used salty foam. Yes, if you lick the foam, it’s salty! It has a taste to it! On top of that, they will garnish some drinks with dehydrated fruit … and they dehydrated the fruit themselves. Just wow.
The drinks are not cheap but with their caliber of expertise and creative minds, why would you ever think that they will be «cheap» … the prices of these cocktails, in my opinion, are justified. It is on par with any other crafted cocktail you will get in the USA — price wise.
We also were able to chat with the owner of the establishment. He has travelled to various places learning his arts and craft and he is a wonderful person to chat with. We even suggest that he move out to Las Vegas and start up a place! It will definitely be popular!
Whether you live in Hong Kong or if you’re visiting Hong Kong, Quinary is definitely the place to visit. Their flavors, twists, creations, and beautiful artwork is beyond worth your time. I have nothing but praises for this establishment.

Hours incorrect on Unilocal.Closes 1am.
SUPER nice staff. They let us in 10 minute before close for a quick drink.
Awesome menu for the cocktail lover like my self. I naturally ordered something with gin, lavender, limacello. We ended up stopping in three times on our trip.
Best craft cocktails I found on our vacation.
PERFECT and no surprise how well they are rated.

If you want to be mesmerized by the bar tenders and their amazing concoctions then you absolutely have to try this place out!
Firstly, the bar tenders are very polished and playful. Secondly, the setting is an upscale bar or lounge and its noise level perfect for a cosy chat but not quiet either — you know, that perfect balance.
I would say most of their signature cocktails are probably packed with some secret yummy ingredients so there isn’t a specific one that stands out from the crowd. If you’re a girl and want some sweet, they have a Earl Grey Martini that tastes amazing and a Marshmallow duo that’s adorable but not very drink like.
I watched them make several drinks with flavored smoke. With that said, all the drinks are nicely presented so totally get your phone ready to Instagram.

Being in Drink International’s 50 best cocktail bars in the world, you walk in to Quinary with quite a high expectation for sure. I did — and I wasn’t let down.
One great thing is that you do not feel ripped off while you’re here — cocktails here are in my opinion quite fairly priced, as compared to other cocktail bars here in Hong Kong. And being assured that you’re getting one of the bests in world, why not?
I was definitely attracted when I saw the cocktail that contains earl grey and gin — those are definitely two things in life that I adore. As I was quite torn apart by the ample choices provided, this rather humble cocktail still won my heart.
Hands down their cocktails were very creatively created, each with their very special garnishes and uniqueness that tell them apart from the rests. We also tried a cocktail that has to do with saving a gummy bear where it’s kinda stuck in an ice cube. Girls definitely will love that sweet little drink.
Ambience here is pretty chilled as well, and not overly noisy that you couldn’t have a proper conversation. Bar tenders are all dressed in the old school smart-​ish way — and they all kept a mustache? Definitely a good experience here!

I’m not big into cocktails, but I can definitely find the joy in tasting some nicely crafted, creatives one, which is exactly what you find here at the Quinary. My local friend brought us here after dinner and it was a really nicely lit and comfortable space.
The staff here really knew what they were doing and the prices were alright, definitely good bang for your buck in terms of Hong Kong. I honestly expected the drinks to be more like $ 140 HKD, but they were $ 110-​$ 130 HKD, pretty in line with New York City.
I had the Marshmallow Duo and the Earl Grey Caviar Martini. This is really where the creativity shined bright because the Marshmallow Duo may have been the cutest little cocktails. It came in these two tiny plastic Coke bottle replicas with straws and two grilled marshmallows. I was so tempted to steal the other one away from my sister, but that just proves I’m a great sibling that I didn’t.
The martini was freakin’ great as well with the (alcoholic??) foam on top and the fruit bubble things adding a different dimension to a regular old martini. Definitely coming back here the next time I’m in HK!

I often read articles from different sources listing the best bars in the world and bookmark them in case I’m ever in the neighborhood. Imagine my surprise when Quinary showed up on my list when I was in Hong Kong. I don’t often have the occasion to visit HK but I’m glad I bookmarked this one.
Some coworkers and I came in around 8pm on a Friday night. We had some time to kill before our dinner reservation and really wanted to check this place out. I was concerned that we wouldn’t be able to walk in but, luckily, there was a great space for us in the lounge. My coworkers aren’t big cocktailers, mostly because they don’t like pretentious cocktail bars. I was happy to see upon arrival that Quinary is laid back, warm, and inviting. Not a hint of pretentiousness. Perfect!
There was something for everyone on the cocktail list. A gummy bear cocktail for the sweet drink lover, barrel aged manhattan for the manhattan lover, and even a beer for the guy who doesn’t like liquor. I really wish I could remember the names of all of the drinks we tried because they were all awesome. I’m really glad that everyone tried different ones, too, so we could sample a bunch. I also have to mention the presentation. They do a great job with the presentation of the drinks. They are so much fun. The best at our table was a drink that was served in a paper bag with smoke coming out of it.
I’m really sad that we had a dinner reservation, I could have stayed the entire night. I’m keeping Quinary on the bookmark list. Next time I’m in town, we’re making a night of it!

Quinary has a nice, old-​school vibe to it (I would say speakeasy-​esque, but it’s waay too well lit for that). It is, however, a nice place to lounge and relax with a fairy solid (albeit maybe a little frou-​frou) cocktail.
EARL GREY COCKTAIL.
We bit the bullet and got the earl grey caviar cocktail. I didn’t know what to expect by a «caviar and air» topping, but you basically get a giant mound of foam (visually awesome, textually odd), and some boba, basically. It was pretty solid, although I did have one to rival it at Upper House a day later.
I gotta say, I’m loving the infusion of tea into cocktails that Hong Kong seems to be doing everywhere, but at least for me, sometimes a little less fancy of a drink can be just as good (or better!).

Best cocktails in Hong Kong.
I had the Roselle and the something-​or-​other Fuzz. The Fuzz was incredible. I want another right now. And another. The Roselle was also very good, and I would without a doubt drink it again. But there are so many excellent concoctions at Quinary that may have to wait.
The ambience is nice, the place is clean, the bartenders are friendly and the cocktails rock — what more could you ask for?

Quinary is all about their Cocktails. You’ll find it along Hollywood Road and you’ll know you’re at the right place once you enter the black industrial steel doors. It’s a bit dark inside and the interior is mostly metal and leather. Definitely reminded me of a Speakeasy!
If you are by yourself, sit at the bar and watch the bartenders work their magic! Their unique and fun cocktails will keep you entertained, add in the cool music in the background and the people watching, you’re set for a chill night out. The cocktails are about HKD120 to HKD140. Their most popular cocktail is the Earl Grey Caviar Martini. It’s a vodka-​based drink blended with elderflower syrup and apple juice, completed with little spheres of earl grey «caviar» floating inside. Lastly, it’s topped with Earl Grey foam. How to drink it? As the server said, «Lick it and suck it!» Got it! :P
There is a full bar for you to choose from and I’m sure you can talk to the bartenders to make a special cocktail for you. They also serve food here (though I wasn’t able to try any). This is a great place to unwind after a long day. :)

Neat little spot to beat the heat, trendy atmosphere with skilled bartenders. Watch out for the earl grey caviar cocktail; when they say they tip it top it with caviar and air, they’re not kidding!

A solid cocktail bar worthy of being part of Drink International’s list of 50 Best Cocktail Bars in the world.
What I love about Quinary is its unpretentiousness. Our group of four was able to walk in on a weeknight with no reservation, and they were cool with us. On my last visit I had the gummy bear cocktail, which I classify under «dangerous» because it tastes like a liquid gummy bear without the alcohol!
Like any high-​end cocktail bar, they’ve got pages of cocktails for dayssss. If you don’t see anything you like, I wouldn’t be surprised if they do bespoke as well.

Cocktails.
And truffle fries.
What more can you want?
Nothing, that’s what! We came here for both and were very happy. It’s a very chic, cool spot where they have a large menu of drinks and it’s easy to get lost in the space. Food, good. Drinks, good. Service, good.
Everyone says to try the Earl Grey martini and if you enjoy Earl Grey, you will enjoy it. But even me, a humble coffee lover, thought it was pretty tasty.
They really are beautiful cocktails and so well made. So if that is what you are looking for, look no more.

Been here a few times as it’s always a nice start to the night. Cocktails are nice and strong (like they should be), service is great, the chip snacks is addictive and unlimited and there’s usually a good crowd. Prices are pretty standard amongst the cocktail bars along Wyndam and SOHO area starting from $ 120 + service.
I know everyone loves the earl grey martini but too much foam for me, case in point in the pic.

Earl grey caviar martini FTW! I love tea and cute cocktail bars so this place is totally up my alley.
We had a group of 6 here and were seated immediately. For some funny reason, we all ordered virgin and non-​virgin versions of the earl grey caviar martini but it looked like the most popular drink there! This drink is all about attention to detail: elderflower syrup, earl grey foam and earl grey «caviar!» It tasted yummy, the ingredient portions were great and it looked super cool.
The other drinks around the bar all looked super cool and creative.
The space is upscale and nice; its lively but not too loud and it’s quite simply the perfect cocktail bar to kick off your night at LKF! I can’t wait wait to come back and try more cocktails here!

Stopped in here for a quick drink. A great scene, and by international standards this could be considered a really fantastic bar. I had a few drinks, but as a Dark and Stormy fan I had to try their «intense» version — OMG fantastic! I didn’t know you could make a DaS any better, but their bartenders did. Music may have been my only issue, a bit too dated trance style for my taste, but that didn’t take away from the fact this could easily be one of the best bars in Hong Kong. Not to quote the Terminator, but I’ll be back!

Quinary is probably one of my favorite bars in Hong Kong. I love the cocktails here. If Antonio and/​or Samuel is in the house, make sure you get the seats as close to them as possible. Watching them work is worth the trip to me already.
Love the cocktails here! The earl grey caviar is popular but I love the Quinary sour and old fashion even more. You will definitely want more than a few rounds here. Can’t take the alcohol? Try the oolong tea collins. It’s delicious! The chips are absolutely addicting and they are so generous with the refills!!!
If you have never been, I highly recommend this place. Make sure you go early or you will be waiting for seats! It’s also super crowded on weekends!

This place is the ish…
Absolutely amazing, even amidst the busy, hustle bustle of a Friday night.
And it’s effin’ busy…
Top notch service at the bar even though they were filled to capacity. The door dude? He was snooty, which I did not like. Child please, I don’t have time for your snitty BS boo-​boo…
The décor reminds me of a mix between ‘the flatiron room’ and the original ‘raines’ back home. The staff is busy, yet absolutely & appropriately attentive (That’s an odd phrase, but is so fitting for the situation at hand).
I had an amazing drink, the ‘Old Ironsides’ was epic. It contained:
Rum
Brandy
Pineapple juice
Caramel
Chocolate-​vanilla sugar
Winning all way. The balance of sweet and classic was perfect.
Would SO come back.

One of the best British mixdology with proper canapé in town.
The duo owners are from here with long time experience and background of cocktail and LKF dinning. I have to do some cocktail tasting thanks to my previous job. Quinary was on my top 3.
How they play whisky can almost tell the knowledge of its achohol. Their whisky ice cube is perfect. Pricy drinks well paid for the long standing pureness and syrup free mix.
More than decent snack for light bite. Pork belly in a jar, truffle fries, iberico… yes, they want to be labeled as posh…
