Causeway Bay has another place for coffee, lunch or dinner. One Causeway Bay, located at 281 Gloucester Road, is gradually opening its retail floors on the site formerly occupied by the Excelsior Hotel.
The development has 25 floors of offices, along with 4 levels of shops and restaurants covering approximately 41,500 sq ft. Several venues are already trading, with more set to open.
It’s worth knowing what’s open before you head over, especially if you’re planning a meal.
Fineprint And Two Japanese Restaurants Are Now Open
Fineprint opened at Shop G02 on the ground floor, serving speciality coffee and sourdough. It operates from 6am to 6pm. Two Japanese restaurants are also operating now: Hakata Tempura YAMAYA on the first floor and Ganso Hakata Yatai by Yataikeiji on the second.
YAMAYA serves tempura sets with unlimited mentaiko refills. Ganso, the first overseas outpost of Fukuoka’s Yatai Keiji, a traditional open-air street food stall offering charcoal-grilled skewers, sharing plates and counter seating.
Dairy Queen Plans November Opening At One Causeway Bay
Dairy Queen plans to open in November at Shops 113–114 on the first floor. This will be the first flagship store in its new Hong Kong rollout, but not its local debut: the chain briefly operated in Causeway Bay in 1979.
Its signature Blizzard soft serve is expected to be available alongside cones, milkshakes, parfaits and ice cream cakes. A second branch is taking shape at The ANGLE in Kwun Tong, with two further shops planned. The exact opening date remains unconfirmed.
More Shops, Direct Mall Access And Parking Details
DALLOYAU is set to open on the first floor, while Duck de Chine is planned for the third. The four-floor retail podium also connects to World Trade Centre via a first-floor passageway.
For those who prefer to drive, parking is available at HK$40 per hour from 8am to 11pm, with an overnight rate of HK$10. Under the current parking promotion, shoppers can enjoy one hour of free parking with a minimum spend of HK$400 on weekdays or HK$500 on weekends and public holidays.
