These bars serving the best Quarry Bay happy hours will have a well-priced drink in your hand faster than you can say: 'East Side Massive!'
Where once the east side was little more than residential area and the gateway to some of our fave beaches in Hong Kong, times are a changing. Thanks to the influx of businesses now calling QB home, you can find cool barber shops, hip hotels like EAST, and a range of great shopping malls to explore. Oh, and what would any district be without its bars? So if you’ve had a hard day at the office and are looking for a drink on the cheap, here’s a list of the best Quarry Bay happy hours for your drinking pleasure. You’re welcome.
