RED: Classy public space

Somewhat of a chill-out lounge, RED is bar located on a large terrace atop the IFC mall and it's great for lazing away a Sunday afternoon or decompressing after a hard day at work.

Because the terrace is technically a public space, RED’s bar is self-service, which means you are free to linger in RED’s wicker furniture, washing down your McDonald’s Big Mac with a shot of Macallan (yes we have witnessed this) or bring your own cheese and crackers to go with a bottle of bubbly. BYOB, however, will make RED’s staff quite red in the face with disapproval.

Even though the nearest body of water is Victoria Harbour, RED’s vibe is a little bit pool party and a little bit beach club, a la Café del Mar. On a clear sunny day, punters break out their best linen shirts and sundresses and you get an unobstructed view of the hills behind Central all the way up to the Peak.
