Best Family And Kid Friendly Coffee Shops And Cafes In Hong Kong

FINEPRINT: Trendy Coffee Shop For Hip Parents *Central, Sai Ying Pun, Tai Hang

Hong Kong's trendiest coffee shop not only serves up some of the best cups of Joe in town, it's also a fun place to gather with affordable prices to boot. Fineprint's flagship branch is on Soho's Peel Street, serving its own blend of coffee, tasty treats, and brunch staples such as avo toast, fresh salads, and toasties. The physical space inside the coffee shop is small so patrons often spill out onto the largely traffic-free street, and on the weekends the area is great for families to enjoy a low-key coffee while the kids explore. The street is car-free so kids can roam while parents relax.

Fineprint has since opened branches in the hip residential neighborhoods of Tai Hang and Sai Ying Pun. We love its laidback pet-friendly vibe, cheerful staff, and excellent value!

Fineprint, multiple locations around Hong Kong - 38 Peel Street (Central), 1 Lily Street (Tai Hang), 14 Second Street (Sai Ying Pun), hello@fineprint.hk, www.fineprint.hk

FUEL ESPRESSO: Excellent Coffee With 7 Locations In Hong Kong *IFC Mall, Landmark, Pacific Place, Chater House, ICC, One Taikoo Place, The Quayside

The gold standard of coffee connoisseurs, from humble beginnings in IFC Mall Fuel has quickly multiplied to seven different locations around Hong Kong. Some swear it's the best in the city, and Fuel has moms and dads driving in from all corners for their coffee fix.

The carrot cake smothered in cream cheese frosting gets a big thumbs up from the kids, as does the nearby Bookazine (at IFC location) where they can keep themselves entertained. Good coffee doesn't come cheap though, and most brews will set you back over HK$50 per cup.
