Exactly like Europe in Hong Kong! 3 Recommended Lunch Spots in the Stanley Area

Although located on Hong Kong Island, Stanley is surrounded by beautiful seas and nature. One of the main purposes of those who visit Stanley for a day trip is to enjoy lunch. While gazing at the harbor, you can have a delicious meal on an open terrace. It’s an elegant moment unique to the European atmosphere that fills the Stanley area.
Since you’re visiting such a popular tourist destination, you’ll want to go to a great restaurant, right? So, here are three recommended lunch spots!

1. The Boathouse

The first lunch spot is “The Boathouse,” a seafood-focused restaurant located along Stanley’s main street. While many seaside restaurants set up parasols, this one is popular for its open terraces on the 2nd and 3rd floors. You can enjoy a stylish lunch while gazing at Stanley’s sea and feeling the sea breeze. On sunny holidays, the seats fill up quickly, so it’s best to go early.
True to Stanley’s small port-town character, the signature dish here is mussels. The “white wine steamed” sauce is exquisite and quite addictive. There are several other sauce options too. Be sure to try the “Thai curry sauce,” something you won’t often taste in Japan. Their traditional British fish and chips are also well-reviewed. On weekdays, there’s even a great-value set that includes fish and chips with beer.

2. Lucy’s

The second spot is a bit of a hidden gem—“Lucy’s.” It’s located slightly away from the Stanley Market area, which most tourists visit. In addition to the daily “recommended lunch” written on the blackboard, there are also à la carte options. As expected of seaside Stanley, the menu centers on seafood.
The salmon fish cake is a popular lunch menu item with many repeat customers. For the main dish, there are also chicken and lamb options. If you prefer something lighter, pasta is recommended.
And the desserts at “Lucy’s” are a must-try. Their tarts, in particular, have an excellent reputation. If you love sweets, don’t miss out!

3. Beef & Liberty

The third spot is “Beef & Liberty,” located in the basement of Stanley Plaza. It’s the perfect place for a lunch burger. The group’s executive chef previously served as head chef for nine years at the prestigious “Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong,” which explains its popularity.
“Beef & Liberty” is a pioneering group known for its authentic approach, using Scottish beef and other high-quality ingredients. Enjoy their juicy, smoky beef to your heart’s content.
If you’re visiting Stanley by bus, many people get off at Stanley Plaza. It’s a great idea to grab lunch here before starting your sightseeing around Stanley.

◎ Summary

Since the Stanley area is known as a “European resort within Hong Kong,” you’ll definitely want to enjoy Western-style cuisine for lunch. In this beautiful seaside town, you can savor authentic dishes. As many Westerners visit, there are plenty of restaurants offering high-quality lunches. You can choose a light meal or something more filling, depending on your plans for dinner.
