This relaxed Belgian beerhall is enjoyably authentic, with benches that encourage conviviality, and the alluring aroma of ale seemingly ingrained into the very walls. Frites serves a smashing array of Belgian brews – helpfully organised and described in its lengthy 'Beer Bible' – including Trappist, light, dark, extra-strong and fruity brews, among others. Barman Nish in the Wan Chai branch is officially the best Stella Artois-pourer in Hong Kong, so make sure you sample his wares.
