Main dining room, 13th floor, China Club

The China Club is a retro-chic, Shanghai-style club and Michelin star restaurant in Hong Kong. It is related to the China Clubs in Singapore and Beijing but not to the clubs of the same name in New York City and Berlin, Germany.

The China Club opened on 8 September 1991 on the top three floors (13th/14th/15th) of the old Bank of China Building in Central, Hong Kong. The restaurant serves traditional Hong Kong Chinese food. The traditional Chinese breakfast of congee, crullers (yau tiu), and dim sum similar to those found in street stalls is served. Home-style and haute cuisine as well as western influenced Asian food like that of Tai Ping Koon are offered at lunches and dinners.

The decor is in the style of the traditional Chinese tea-house. The floors, lighting and fans are reminiscent of 1930s Shanghai.

The 13th floor is the main dining room. The 14th floor houses private rooms and the Long March Bar. The 15th floor houses private rooms in which cards and mah-jong can be played. It also houses a library of several thousand books on China and Chinese culture.

Legacy of Founder David Tang

David Tang founded the China Club in 1991 with a vision to revive the "lost" glamour of pre-Communist China, drawing inspiration from 1930s Shanghai aesthetics blended with modern elements, informed by his Cambridge education in the UK and his roots in Hong Kong's affluent society. This concept transformed the club into a symbol of refined Chinese identity, expanding to Beijing in 1996 and Singapore by 2001, establishing it as a global brand in luxury hospitality. Tang's personal flair as a bon vivant infused the venues with indulgent features like dedicated cigar lounges, reflecting his passion for fine cigars through affiliated ventures such as Havana House and Pacific Cigar Company, which elevated the club's reputation for opulent, cosmopolitan socializing. Tang died on August 29, 2017, at the age of 63 from at London's , after a prolonged battle with the disease.

His vision has inspired similar upscale venues worldwide, blending Eastern tradition with Western luxury, while provisions in Tang's estate have helped preserve the brand's integrity amid legal challenges. However, Tang's legacy has been complicated by posthumous allegations of financial impropriety and substantial debts, as explored in biographies and estate disputes. Beyond the club, Tang's broader influence endured through his writings, including weekly columns in the Financial Times as the "Agony Uncle," where he advocated for a sophisticated, culturally proud Chinese ethos that aligned with the club's refined identity.

In 1998, Tang sold a majority stake to Compagnie Financière , though he continued influencing its creative direction until his passing in 2017; the brand was fully divested by in 2017 to Italian entrepreneur Alessandro Bastagli, who sold it in 2018 to Chinese investment fund Lunar Capital. Complementing the China Club's cigar lounges, Tang founded the Pacific Cigar Company in 1992 as the exclusive distributor of cigars across the region, sourcing premium Cuban varieties that enhanced the clubs' 1930s lounge ambiance with rituals of exclusivity and sophistication. In 1994, he acquired House Cigar & , expanding it into a network of specialized retail outlets that supplied the China Club venues and echoed the club's theme of refined indulgence. These cigar enterprises integrated seamlessly with the clubs, where Pacific Cigar products were featured in bars and lounges to evoke an era of elegant smoking culture. Following Tang's death in 2017, these ventures persisted under new ownership, with Pacific Cigar maintaining its distributorship and Havana House operating as a leading cigar retailer in the region, occasionally aligning with China Club events to sustain the shared legacy of Chinese luxury entrepreneurship.
