n.o.t. Specialty Coffee (Hysan Place)

n.o.t. Specialty Coffee (Hysan Place), a café in Causeway Bay, Wan Chai, is at HK Hong Kong Island 9/F, 500 Hennessy Rd, Causeway Bay. Before heading over it is worth checking the hours, phone number and Google rating below, so the trip is not wasted. The address puts it on an upper floor of a building (an "upstairs shop", very common in Hong Kong), so note the floor and unit number; lifts can be slow at busy times, and some older buildings only have stairs.

When choosing a café or dessert shop, look at whether prices are shown, whether plant milks or less-sweet options are available, and whether there is a time limit on seats. Many open seven days a week, but some small shops take a weekly day off; for cakes or large orders of pastries, calling ahead is the safest bet. If you plan to work or study in a café, check for power sockets and any seating time limit.

Google lists the opening hours as Mon–Fri 08:00–20:00, Sat 09:30–20:00, Sun 09:30–18:00. It opens every day of the week. Arrangements may differ on public holidays, over Lunar New Year and when a typhoon signal No. 8 or above or a black rainstorm warning is in force, so call before making a special trip. Phone: 2151 3822. Hong Kong numbers have eight digits; from abroad, dial +852 first. More information is on its website, m.facebook.com.

At 3.8 out of 5 on Google (561 reviews), it sits mid-table; the written reviews say more about service, prices and waiting times than the number does.

Causeway Bay is part of the Wan Chai District on Hong Kong Island. The island is steep, with many streets climbing the hillside; the Central–Mid-Levels escalator links Central with the Mid-Levels and the Peak Tram runs up to The Peak. Offices, malls and old neighbourhood shops sit side by side, restaurants are packed at the office lunch hour (roughly 13:00–14:00), and with parking scarce the MTR, tram or bus is usually easier than driving. Causeway Bay is packed with malls and department stores and is very crowded at weekends; nearby Victoria Park hosts the Lunar New Year fair.
