The Diplomat is an award-winning cocktail bar and restaurant located on Pottinger Street in Central Hong Kong, blending American-style hospitality with creative drinks and elevated pub fare. Ranked No.20 on Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2021 and winner of the London Essence Best New Opening Award, it stands out for its "simple done right" philosophy. The moody, retro-inspired space channels Edward Hopper’s *Nighthawks*, with a gilded bar and warm lighting setting the scene for expertly crafted cocktails like the Tarling (pandan gin, white port, coconut water) and the rich Irish Coffee with cognac-infused cold cream . Beyond drinks, The Diplomat is celebrated for its Wagyu beef burger (using premium cuts from sister restaurant Wagyumafia) and crispy Nugent’s Nuggets, making it a destination for both dining and drinking . The menu features mini cocktails (50 HKD) for budget-friendly sampling, alongside full-sized punches and reimagined classics.
