Tucked away from the madding crowds of HK in the hills of Sheung Wan district, Lof10 is not the easiest to find. But thanks to its open-air design and the fact that it serves BLUE BOTTLE COFFEE, Lof10 manages to fill its seats with locals and visitors alike.

Lof10's co-owners spent some of their formative years in California and when they returned home, they were determined to recreate the unhurried, chilled out ambience of the west coast coffee shops. And judging from its popularity in spite of its location off the beaten path, it's safe to say that they've succeeded in capturing the best of Cali café culture.

But really, you had us at Blue Bottle coffee.
