Into The Woods...
Tucked away right in the midst of the hustle-bustle of Hong Kong's Central district on Hollywood Road is our concept cocktail bar.
The Woods is a journey and the physical embodiment of "Komorebi" – a Japanese term for when sunlight filters through the trees and the interplay between the light and the leaves.
Artisanal Spirits
As much as possible, we choose to use smaller-batch distilleries with high quality products and wonderful stories.
In-House Ice Program
We make our own crystal clear ice blocks, hand-carved ice spheres, and cubes in our infamous walk-in freezer.
Market-Fresh Ingredients
We source and juice our produce fresh each day. We specialise in using seasonal fruits and vegetables at their peak.
A Culinary Take on Cocktails
We believe in elevating cocktails into a culinary experience by putting as much care and attention into making your drinks as a chef would into preparing a dish.
A Culinary Take on Cocktails
We believe in elevating cocktails into a culinary experience by putting as much care and attention into making your drinks as a chef would into preparing a dish.
Our menu consists of classic cocktails made with a twist of market-fresh ingredients, and also features a list of concoctions that use fruits and vegetables as they come into season– be it Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter. Once in a while, we will be inspired by things we find that day in the market and offer a ‘Market-Fresh Special’. Just ask our staff about it!
Our most exciting offering is our 8-seater, reservations-only bar area. Here, we turn the traditional Prix-Fixe menu on its head. You can pick your appetiser, main and dessert, except the centre of each course is the cocktail, and it is paired with a nibble of food. Every drink is experimental and experiential, guaranteeing a wow-factor and a visual journey. The menu changes every 8 weeks, depending on seasonality, new themes, as well as collaborations.
