IFC Mall

A giant galleria that all Apple users would enjoy because they have such a giant store located inside. The mall overall is very clean and tidy.

OK, let’s be up front about this: this is my favourite mall in HK. Convenient location; right in the centre of life in HK. Good car park. There is a cinema. And importantly, there are plenty of good restaurants in the mall. There is also a good supermarket. As to other shopping, very rarely buy cloths or other stuff here, as they tend to be relatively expensive.

The IFC (International Finance Centre) is a complex of skyscraper buildings. It includes the IFC Mall (with restaurants and shops), an airport check-​in service, and a rooftop garden on the 4^th floor of IFC Tower 2. It’s clean and spacious, close to the Star Ferry to Tsim Sha Tsui and Hong Kong MTR station. It can get very touristy at times and houses two popular restaurants: Tim Ho Wan and Tasty Congee and Wantun Shop. I personally wouldn’t go out of my way to experience IFC but if you’re in the area (taking the Star Ferry for 2.50 HKD for example) or have some time to kill, IFC is here.

Great shopping and food places. Safe, clean and classy

This mall was okay. Mostly high end shops but I gave it three stars since there are almost no where to seat in this mall. I guess they don’t want people to hang around but I’d rather spend my money somewhere else since I can’t even sit down after walking through this big mall.

Garret’s popcorn! There are many more food places in this mall, definitely a great place to grab a snack or have dinner. Also, their grocery store is amazing filled with imported items and much more.

A huge mall and one of the main shopping areas in HK. The range of stores is expansive with many of the usual suspects on the 1^st floor and nearly every designer brand one can think of on the higher up floors. There’s no shortage of eateries either including a branch of Lei Garden (1 Michelin star for those curious), Open Kitchen, Starbucks, Lady M, etc.

IFC mall is where all the top notch brands are. I always feel like I’m being judged when I come here in my flipflops and my t-​shirt, but then again, I couldnt care less.
Here, you will find stores such as Prada, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Hermes, Jimmy Choo, etc. Of course, the mall is designed very nicely to match all these top notch stores in Hong Kong. If you’re lucky, you could probably run into a few movie stars here.
IFC Mall is also connected to Harbour City through a bridge, where you will find a ton of OL’s especially during lunch time.

Hong Kong feels filled with malls. And it’s nice, because it’s a good spot to get away from the humidity of the city. Oh man, it can get hot.
This is a beautiful mall though. Really well designed, really pretty from all different angles. It’s got a nice selection of stores and some good food.
When we needed a break from the city, and somewhere cool, this was a good spot to walk and talk. It’s also got a beautiful promenade where you can eat and look at the city (not to be missed.)

This is a very nice mall with many great restaurants and stores. It is directly above the Hong Kong Station and a great place to kill time after you checked in and before your headout to the airport via Airport Express. There is a public place in IFC 1 on the 4^th floor that gives you a great view of the harbor.

I’ve literally witnessed the growth of IFC Mall.
This was the mall I probably spent the most time in, among all the malls in Hong Kong, just because I’d been working in One IFC building for 6+ years. But flashback to about 10, 12 years ago, IFC Mall was just opened and not crowded by top tier brands and tourists. I could still vaguely remember the look of the coastline on the HK Island before the landfill, though I can’t anymore now. It was unreal to walk, past midnight, in one of the largest malls in Hong Kong, from the bridge connecting to the Hang Seng Bank Headquarters, to the Central Ferry Piers.
It still remains this way today, as it is one of the main ways to access to the piers. Walking down the mall (legitimately, not trespassing) with all the shops closed was a pretty unreal experience.
Anyway, nowadays the mall becomes the access point to almost everywhere now. Work, lunch, dinner, drink, movies, ferries, MTR, airport, escalators going back home, bridges connecting back to the heart of Central.
The shops in the mall is less impressive, due to the fact that it is again, a replication of every other single mall in Hong Kong. If you really want to get something unique, maybe you can try your luck to see if Amanda S is around at her own dessert shop.

I liked the layout as it has major American and Asian label clothing stores, food shop, and of course an Apple Store. Centrally located and is on the Big Bus hop on hop off stop. Accessible to Airport Express. Tons of coffee shops as well.

I like the place a lot, but I find that the stores seems to serve one purpose of parting short term tourists from their money with all the high end brands they have there.
However I do appreciate the fact that this mall has some things that I also like as well such as:
— Tim Ho Wan for the famous BBQ pork buns
— Crystal Jade for noodles and shanghainese xiao long bao dumplings
— lots of good coffee shops here such as LGB and Fuel (for the Australian/​NZ expats/​tourists they also do a flat white!)
— Apple store for accessories and stuff. It’s also a good meeting point for meeting people because it’s easy to find and is very visible from the outside.
— city’super to get almost any international ingredients (at a premium)
— IFC rooftop for chilling out

I remember when the IFC was being built. At the time, my go to place was the Pacific Place for shopping and walking. Then when this was erected with the twin tower on the other side of the harbor, we started going here a bit. They have all the great places that you’re looking for as you shop your favorite name brand stores. This mall is also one of the only places in all of Hong Kong where there is an Apple store which is 2 stories and looks over one of the main roads through downtown.
What I love about Hong Kong’s malls is their Christmas decorations. They are gorgeous, well, usually. The theme this year at IFC was Jingle Bao… yah, that wasn’t a winner. No matter, I come here for the shopping, the coffee and the macarons! My favorite store here is Aigle which is a French company that has found its way into Hong Kong. Being the fashion capital of the world, I’m glad that Aigle found a way into the city. They also have great little cafes around after you’ve had a bit of a walk as well as a little macaron store on the 2^nd (maybe 3^rd?) floor. Also if you’re looking to watch a movie, then they have a movie theater here as well!
It’s always chockers here but just go to the upper levels where there are fewer people!

Irgendwie sind die Malls in Asien mittlerweile alle gleich — kein Unterschied mehr zwischen Singapur, Hongkong oder Abu Dhabi. Die I (nternational)F (inance)C (enter) Mall in Hongkong liegt fünf Minuten Fussweg vom Anlegeplatz der Fähren und ist damit nicht nur Heim jedes Modelabels sondern auch Anlaufpunkt jedes Reisenden der zwischen Kowloon und Hongkong Island unterwegs ist. Schnäppchen sind hier nicht zu holen, die bekannten Department Stores bringen es auf europäische, oder höhere Preise. Der Ansturm der Menschen ist gewaltig, hier ist Kaufkraft unterwegs. Hongkong lernt man in dieser Mall nicht kennen, aber immerhin ist das Shoppen (wenn man kein Problem mit Menschnmassen hat) angenehm.

I think if there was somewhere to showcase Hong Kong as a «World City” — the IFC should be right up on that list. Its easily one of the posh-​est malls in Hong Kong with a range of brand names that rivals that at Harbourcity. The fact is that Harbourcity seems a bit low brow compared to this place, which may be du to the fact that its on Hong Kong Island but once again it seems like this place was built to serve the great and the good whilst Harbourcity was a bit of an afterthought. Its airy, there’s plenty of open space for your kids to run around and the view over the harbor is simply spectacular. It displays Hong Kong in all its splendor and dosh.
Its also good in another sense– for workers in the Central area the rooftop act as a spot for lunch time and after hours. There are free seating on the roof area where you could either bring your own food from the numerous restaurants down below or order from the ones up there. You can sit there and relax during lunch hours or really loose yourself with the bars up there afterhours. It caters everything for everyone.
You can’t get more central than the IFC in my view, its a transportation hub in itself and there are a million ways to get here. It has a cinema which is again top notch but it also reflects this with higher ticket prices as well. In all, the IFC has done well to propel itself to the top of the game– some may complain that its not a place for everyone– but I guess that’s the point in the first place.

I don’t do most of my shopping here, and here’s why: IFC is a mall for just brand name goods. I mean, yes, if i was looking to buy prada or jimmy choos, this would most likely be the mall i would shop at, but for everyday items, it doesn’t make much sense to spend all my money here.
I do really like this mall though, reason being, it has a good variety of different KINDS of shops — although all expensive. They have a great supermarket-​city super, they have tons of restaurants, whether they are high end or low, they have tons of coffee shops, they ARE airport express, making it nice to shop around while waiting for flight, they have a movie theatre, they have an awesome rooftop, and they have a gym.
I must say, I am in love with the rooftop. I have had meetings with my partners here just because it’s quiet and so chill. Of course the bars are great too, those i frequent more than i really should, but it usually is quite chill. It isn’t demanding like the ones in lkf, the bars here, you can just sit back and enjoy the scenery without feeling like you are not doing anything at all.
I remember seeing people doing tai chi on the roof of ifc, it was rather entertaining, it was a combo between kung fu and tai chi i think.
I have had incidences where we would buy sake from city super then coming up for a drink. Where else could you do that? The view from the rooftop is stunning, there are benches/​seating areas everywhere and it’s just so easy on a lazy day.
The selection of nice shops inside the mall is obviously good. There’s a large lane crawford, there’s most of the brands names you can think of, they have victoria secret, apple store, etc. The location makes it convenient for most people to get to. Thumbs up!
