Chin Chin Bar — Restaurant in Kowloon

Not really a fan of live music places as the sound system tends to be quite jarring to my ears or the music selection not to my liking. Surprisingly, Chin Chin has a nice and relaxing vibe and the music on that night when I visited was right up my alley. While the lead singer's native language may not be Cantonese or Chinese, she still delivered the songs pretty well along with her band mates. Glad to find a lounge bar like this to end the day and unwind. Even when seated near the stage, the sound level and quality were still acceptable to me.

Had the virgin mojito mocktail which was actually more sour than refreshing. Would have preferred a stronger mint taste to balance out the lime flavour. As for the complimentary snacks, the crackers were not crunchy while I didn't try the mala nuts. Wanted to get some bar bites from the menu but nothing really caught my fancy so it was kind of disappointing.

There is an outdoor area which would be good for people who want to chat without the music but I felt that being surrounded by tall buildings around just felt a bit constricted and uncomfortable. It would have been better if the bar was on a higher floor with less obstructions around it.

I recently visited Chin Chin Bar with a friend and had a disappointing experience. My friend ordered a glass of wine, while I ordered the fried beef noodles. Unfortunately, I wasn't aware that I needed to order a drink until we settled the bill.

The waitress was quite cool and didn’t smile, which added to the awkwardness. It felt like she assumed we were trying to take advantage of the situation. I was surprised by her tone and the way she handled this matter.

To be honest, the noodles were nearly HKD 300, which is quite expensive. Given that I’m a regular customer, I expected better service, especially from a place that aims for a five-star experience.

Overall, this visit has left a bad experience, and I doubt I...

Really disappointed with my experience here. Came by hoping to grab a drink, but was told the bar was full and asked to leave my contact info. The staff promised they’d call me when a seat opened up, so I waited outside. I saw several groups leave and empty seats inside, but no one ever bothered to update me or let me know what was happening. The staff clearly saw me waiting, but never acknowledged me again or kept their promise to call. Ended up waiting over 30 minutes for nothing. Not the kind of service I...
