The Pawn

Wan Chai. A Western-style bar and cafe in an attractive building that was once a pawn shop. It is away from the naughty parts of Wan Chai in one of the few historic buildings remaining in Hong Kong. It will appeal to visitors seeking a good range of imported beers and wines.

Chiu Yuen
潮苑
Small and usually packed eatery serving up a wide range of simple fare, but the crowd-pullers are the beef brisket noodles (a scarcely believable $13) and the homemade giant fishball soup ($16). Other branches are in Aberdeen and Causeway Bay.

Wan Chai Computer Centre
Although not the largest computer centre in Hong Kong, this one is above Wan Chai station with two floors of small shops selling computers, laptops, tablet, accessories, headphones, games, etc. It is also the easiest to get to on Hong Kong island. Some shops open from 10:30, although generally speaking it isn't worth to visit before midday.

The Flying Pan
On the corner of Lockhart Road and Luard Road. Look above Mes Amis and you will find the best place for breakfast and it's open all-day, everyday. This is the place where you can have a full-English washed down with a glass of lager at any time you prefer. It has an extensive menu catering for all preferences and a "frequent fryer" club if you want to keep going back. Staff are friendly and speak good English.
