Finding your way to Geronimo shot bar, through an unlikely neon lit hallway nestled beside Al's Diner, is a bit of a voyage into the unknown; however a voyage well worth embarking on. Unusual for Lan Kwai Fong this niche bar has just the right combination of superb personalised service, excellent playlists that seem to mirror the mood of the crowd, a great clientele and without doubt some of the best shots in HK. Don't be put off though if shots aren't your preference, the bar tenders are great at mixing up classic and one off drinks on request. The bar itself has a comfortable, friendly atmosphere - from being greeted when you first arrive, to being on first name terms with the staff by the time you roll out a few hours later. You will also likely to meet some of the 'regulars' patrons who are recognisable by their names on the Big Chief leader board, their genorosity in banging the drum and buying shots immortalised. This bar is what LKF and HK has needed for a while, a local in the heart of the action, a very welcome addition to the area.

Always be prepared for an epic party in this bar, which tastefully decorated with a Native American decor and tucked away on the second floor above Al's Diner. It's a one-off in HK: the staff are great fun, they play eclectic tunes and there is a terrace overlooking the street - good for people watching.Friendly atmosphere, lots of foreigners come through this place. Not pretentious or frou-frou and the drinks are always good.Geronimo can be empty one minute and packed the next. It's nice for a quiet drink but beware the special drum above the bar! When you bang the drum, you buy EVERYBODY in the bar a shot. It happens often.

We took some customers here while we were in town and we all loved it. The music's cool, the bar staff are helpful and professional, and the ambience is awesome. The drinks are reasonably priced and the proceeds from the 'shot drum' (if you hit it, you buy a shot for everyone in the bar) definitely helped oil the conversation! Don't be put off by the ropey looking elevator - Geronimo is very much worth a visit. Great for people watching from the terrace, too.
