You know a place is good when it’s been up and running for a long time. Well, China Bear has been rocking Mui Wo’s entertainment scene for more than 20 years!

This sports bar is pretty much a mainstay hangout spot for beachgoers, hikers, and bikers. China Bear offers screens where you can catch Premier League Football games, tennis, etc.
Live sports streaming here is only available upon request, though, so if you have a specific game in mind, contact them first before you visit.

Operating hours: Monday to Sunday – 11:30 AM to 12 AM
Highlights:

If you plan to watch a game with a large group of friends or colleagues, this place is an excellent option. It has a cozy interior, spacious indoor seating, and an outdoor patio featuring overlooking views of the football pitch and golf driving range of the South China Athletic Association (SCAA).
The menu here is the same as the one offered in the Hong Kong Brewpub in Lan Kwai Fong, so if you’ve tried the food there and liked it, you’ll also enjoy what’s here. It’s mostly classic comfort food like cheeseburgers, chilis, pizzas, ribs, and wings.
Moreover, this American sports bar is famous for its extensive selection of drinks, which includes 90 bottled beer varieties, commercial and premium beers on tap, draft beer brews, dessert-inspired beers, and so much more. Oh, and the peanuts are free.

Unlike its former location in Sunning Centre, Inn Side Out in Happy Valley can be hard to find because there’s not much signage around the place and it’s in a hidden spot.
However, once you reach the SCAA, you can more or less find where the pub is due to the flock of patrons and sports fans enjoying themselves on the outdoor patio.
