Tucked away down a dimly lit alley off Wyndham Street in Central, Stockton is Hong Kong’s quintessential speakeasy, transporting guests to a bygone era of 19th-century London luxury. Inspired by Victorian-era gentlemen’s clubs and the Prohibition’s clandestine charm, this Maximal Concepts gem combines opulent decor with inventive cocktails and gourmet bar bites, earning its spot on Asia’s 50 Best Bars list 27. Step into a world of dark timber paneling, leather Chesterfields, and antique curios sourced from European flea markets. The moody lighting, mounted animal heads, and hidden quirks—like a one-way mirror in the bathroom—create an immersive, hallucinatory experience reminiscent of Hunter S. Thompson’s mystique (the bar’s namesake) 611. With only 120 seats, including plush alcoves and a private cigar room, Stockton exudes exclusivity 712.
