Mostly Harmless is an omakase cocktail bar led by the renowned mixologist Ezra Star, the Bartender of the Year at the 2024 Time Out Hong Kong Bar Awards. This local watering hole not only snagged the title of Best New Bar in the 2023 Time Out Bar Awards but also clinched the inaugural Bar of Tomorrow Award in Hong Kong for their commitment to sustainability, which extends beyond the menu. In contrast to other omakase-style cocktail bars known for their elaborate and ceremonious drinks, Mostly Harmless offers a relaxed and non-intimidating atmosphere. The cocktail menu rotates frequently to showcase seasonal produce and Ezra's latest market finds, so try what's currently on offer, as it may not return once it's gone. However, a custom order based on your preferences is sure to leave a lasting impression. Can't get a seat upstairs? The bar recently expanded to the ground floor where patrons can enjoy monthly rotating cocktails and food offerings.
