18 Grams Speciality Coffee — Restaurant in Hong Kong Island

18 Grams is one of the first of the coffee specialists that began popping up all over the city just over a decade ago. They have kept things simple and straight forward with their original espresso bar on Cannon Street in Causeway Bay while offering smaller kiosk style and pop up units around the city from time to time.

Their place in CWB is small, with just a few indoor and outdoor seating but their espresso drinks are pretty good, likely why they have stayed around for so long while so many newbies have come and gone as part of the evolving coffee scene in the area.

Stopped by recently for a morning espresso macchiato that was very good. Espresso was bold but well tempered with the small amount of milk and foam. It was a good macchiato, one I'd happy return to enjoy again the next time I'm around and...

This tiny coffee shop with just a handful of seats is located on a busy street in the heart of bustling Causeway Bay - good location and a rather cute shop, unfortunately the service here is poor and the coffee not good enough.

On our visit we ordered a flat white and one of the fancy specials, the name of which I don't remember. The special was just a watery, bland black coffee with a fancy name and the flat white was just ok.

We also had the egg bagel which came undercooked. We sent it back and instead of getting a new dish they simply took the already tasted items off the plate, cooked them again served them to us again. Really not good.
