The Corner Coffee @ HKAC — Restaurant in Hong Kong Island

Coffee was okay but was not a good experience for me. Although their menu didn't offer cortado to order, it was my taste. I know cortado is not a particularly popular drink in HK but it is undoubtedly a famous coffee beverage that a batista should know (I am a barista).

As a reminder, it's a coffee shop, not a cafe. There are only few seats...

The coffee shop is one of the regular places I visit, as it’s a compact area where I can have some freedom from the crowded areas of hong kong.

Overall great place for coffee, although would recommend getting food from...
