The Aubrey
Elevated high above Hong Kong’s skyline on the 25th floor of the Mandarin Oriental, The Aubrey is where art, design, and Japanese hospitality converge in a vivid, sensorial haven. Styled by Silverfox Studios, the bar’s lavish interior is inspired by Japonisme—merging ukiyo-e woodblock prints, Belle Époque furnishings, and art‑nouveau lighting with cozy lounges, plush velvet seating, and rich wood-paneled nooks that evoke the feel of a cultured collector’s private home. The venue unfolds across interconnected rooms—the Main Bar, Drawing Room, Curio Lounge, Omakase Cocktail Bar, and a Champagne & Sake Bar—each with its own distinct ambiance tailored to different vibes and occasions. At its heart, The Aubrey channels the izakaya tradition into an upscale, all-day dining and drinking experience—with masterfully crafted cocktails, refined Japanese spirits like shochu and sake, and thoughtfully curated bites including sushi, sashimi, and robata-grilled dishes. Adventurous patrons will delight in the Omakase Cocktail Bar, where only four seats offer an intimate, journey-like tasting—cocktails are chosen by the mixologist based on your palette, paired with light snacks in a theatrical and expressive fashion. If bubbles and oysters are more your speed, the Champagne & Sake Bar pairs elegance with indulgence, or opt for signature and seasonal cocktails in the Main Bar framed by floating glassware and a lush green ceiling. The Aubrey also shines in the nightlife scene—its "After Dark" series transforms Fridays into vibrant escapades with curated DJ sets, cocktails, and sweeping views of Victoria Harbour. Its artistic flair, elevated drinks, and unforgettable environment earned it a spot as No. 10 on Asia’s 50 Best Bars in 2024 and No. 17 in 2023, cementing its reputation as one of the region’s most creative and atmospheric bar destinations.
