Quarry Bay isn’t typically the first place that comes to mind when one thinks up places to dine and drink. Populated with commercial buildings and offices, the district is predominantly a business area, yet with the influx of newcomers and regular lunch-goers, came a surge in new restaurant openings and things to see and do. Without further ado, here are our favourite places to eat, drink, stay and work on a trip to Quarry Bay.
