Looking for a themed cocktail bar with an element of mystery? Ebisu Flower Park, a Japan-based cocktail bar that revolves around the concept of a flower park with seasonal blossoms, has opened memberships for a Hong Kong location. The one-time payment will allow insiders (and up to three of their friends!) to enjoy access to the bar’s secret venue in the city and its international branches — current and planned.
The Ebisu Flower Park experience
Ebisu Flower Park is an exclusive floral sanctuary where members get to sample a seasonal menu of cocktails that changes based on the bloom of the month, along with a selection of snacks. The location is only revealed once a membership is purchased, which will set you back HK$4,700. But once you’re in, you get unlimited access to all 13 of Ebisu’s premises in Japan — which includes addresses in Tokyo’s buzzing Shibuya district, the historic city of Kyoto, and Osaka’s commercial centre Umeda.
There are no monthly or annual fees, but the Japan bars have a table charge of ¥880 (HK40) per person and it’s advised that you make a reservation. The cocktails will each be priced at about HK$150 and are crafted keeping seasonal flowers in mind. The Japanese outlets will therefore feature pansies in January, tulips in February, and sakura in March (since it’s cherry blossom season in Japan), and so on. However, the Hong Kong menu may differ based on the flowers in season here. There’s no strict dress code, but children are not allowed in the club.
Other Ebisu Flower Park locations
While the main spot in Tokyo highlights from flowers from around the world, the Shibuya specialty store serves up parfaits on top of cocktails. There are also plans to open other international locations, most notably in New York where no more than 300 people can sign up for entry. There are also reports that Ebisu will launch in Singapore, Seoul, London, and Shanghai.
