At 2 Cafe, you'll find yourself enveloped in an atmosphere typical of the city's beloved cha chaan teng: bustling, and albeit a little chaotic, yet filled with the unmistakable aroma of freshly prepared food.

Enjoy your meal with a refreshing pineapple fruit drink, praised by guests for its invigorating taste that matches the vibrant spirit of the cafe.

For those seeking a true taste of Hong Kong, pair your dishes with the noodles with meat, which are simply irresistible, comforting, and deliciously satisfying. And let's not forget the French toast, a golden-brown masterpiece that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, perfectly complemented by a scoop of ice cream, providing that delightful balance of temperature and flavor.

With rave reviews from happy customers, like 'Honest Aussie,' who described 2 Cafe as an 'outstanding neat clean cafe' and praised the refreshing drinks, it’s clear that this spot is adored by both locals and visitors alike.

Very nice egg sandwich. Service is as noted by others as not the best and rather chaotic but otherwise the hot food is great. Portions are absolutely enormous and I see why there's a queue. A note the ice cream drink isn't bad and it's also very generous but the canned pineapple taste is dominant and there's far better options in Hong Kong. I'd stick with the free or slightly upgraded Mandarin or lime drink as seen pictures next to it with the set instead Overall very good if you don't need table service and just a quick, generously portioned bite to eat.

This is a very decent cafe found in Mong Kok, Hong Kong serving the classic dishes you’ll expect to find! We ordered a good variety here but our favourites are definitely the Pineapple Bun with thick butter and the bowl noodles with meat. The cold butter was such a good combination with the warm bun! Each bite forces the butter to melt and the pineapple bun was so fresh! We didn’t need to book - the staff welcomed us and found a table for us very quickly. Great cafe to check out if you’re in the area!

Delicious egg sandwich. Plenty of egg filling with pillow like warm bread. French toast crispy on the outside and soft and chewy inside. French toast was warm and perfect match with the ice cream. Service and atmosphere is typical of most HK cha chaan teng … there was none. food was yummy. Price reasonable. Would visit again.

We had breakfast there for a few days when we stayed in a hotel nearby. The breakfast were tasty and authentic Hong Kong style. They bake their buns onsite and they were super fresh. We loved the pineapple buns. If you don't want to sit down you can quickly buy the buns from the outside facing counter. Service was polite and quick. The tables are a little small but that's typical Hong Kong standard.

Nice restaurant. I tried the fish and curry set lunch that comes with a drink and a soup. All very good. The staff was nice to me and patient with my poor Chinese level. This is a kind of cantine so a bit crowded and noisy. I like it so I put 5 stars for the atmosphere (this was not a surprise I knew what to expect). Warmly recommended if you are looking for a HK style cantine on top of the usual dim sum places.
