A Year of Argo: The Coolest Bar in Central, Hong Kong

Originally published BY P.RAMAKRISHNAN  |  JULY 22, 2022

As Four Seasons Hong Kong’s signature bar, standards were set pretty high from the get-go. Here's a winner.

As we go to publish, Argo’s just celebrated its first anniversary with near-universal praise and great press painstakingly collected over what’s been a difficult year for the industry. Pandemic-induced lockdowns, restrictions, and wide social distancing measures meant more bars and restaurants shut shop over the period than any other time in recent history—as tourism fell by a whopping 98%.

Argo not only threw open its doors during the thick of the pandemic, it maintained a degree of quality and success like no other. A cocktail bar that explores the world of fine beverages, its name is inspired by the myth of Jason and the Argonauts and their journey of discovery and exploration. The debut cocktail menu celebrates six staple ingredients; honey, cacao, vanilla, coffee, rice, and apple. So meticulous is their attention to detail and quality control, Argo has its own beehive located in Mai Po, New Territories!
