Common Ground

Hooman knows that Common Ground on Shing Wong Street is super popular with pets 🐾🐶, but every time we passed by we never really sat down to support them. Recently, Hooman finally made up her mind to go. The vibe was great🎵! ─ · ─ · ─ · ─ · ─ Hooman didn’t expect much from their coffee, but she was completely blown away after the first sip☕️💯 .ᐟ.ᐟ It had such a memorable #floral note, almost like jasmine. She found out they used SOE. Paired with a torch-finished Basque cheesecake that tasted like crème brûlée🔥 — so dope, and the price was very reasonable! ─ · ─ · ─ · ─ · ─ The café also serves mains. Hooman tried the Tomato and Burrata pasta🍝 , which is not commonly seen elsewhere. The flavor was on the lighter side, with the tomato taste a bit lacking. If they added chunks of tomato (fresh or canned), both the flavor and presentation would be even better. ─ · ─ · ─ · ─ · ─ And the sourdough here is actually from Cuit! Definitely have to come back and try more! @bichoncoolcool

Lower than average. The coffee is sour (which is not my personal preference). The pasta tastes like curry.

Although it is located on the slope, it managed to arrange some outdoor seatings outside the cafe. Be careful because it is slightly inclined. There is also another cafe next to this cafe so there is several people socialising and bringing their dogs with them. We ordered 2 breakfasts and latte. Avocado toast is quite popular but it is not that surprising. The toast is ok and the avocado is soft. Then there is an onsen egg, feta cheese crumbs and salty egg crumbs. The crumbs are not that fantastic and surprising. The egg benedict is more outstanding. The English muffin is not dry at all and the onsen eggs are perfectly runny. The best part is the smoked and slightly grilled smoked salmon and Hollandaise sauce. The smoked hint of flavour makes it less greasy. The latte is more fruity with citrus and rose flavour, but it is pretty small and the milk foam is rough.

The kind of cafe I just want to come and live here in HK and come here everyday. Great food, very friendly service, and best place to enjoy a coffee and dog-watching. It’s located in a friendly neighborhood. If I lived here, I’d definitely bring my dog here.

Very cool area to check out. I would definitely add it to your places to see when visiting. The entire area is made with shipping containers. They have very cool local shops on the first 2 floors and the third floor has a bunch of restaurants. We ate at the Italian restaurant which was amazing and I got the cream latte from lite lane which was incredible. There’s also a ton of cool artistic work that are great photo spots. We also spontaneously got piercings at one of the local shops. She did such an amazing job, it didn’t hurt at all and the jewelry is so cute!
