What is Eat Spain Drink Spain?
Eat Spain Drink Spain is Hong Kong's annual two-week showcase of Spanish gastronomy, led by Food and Wines from Spain in partnership with the Spanish Commercial Office in Hong Kong & Macau and Alimentos de España. For 2026 it runs 10–24 September, with more than 40 restaurants, bars, wine shops and importers taking part — from PMQ tapas bars to Tsim Sha Tsui delicatessens.
The format is simple: participating venues roll out limited-time set menus, wine pairings, tastings and discounts built around Spanish ingredients and producers, giving diners a low-commitment way to sample the country's regional cooking without booking a flight to Madrid or Barcelona.
Where to eat: set menus and tasting dinners
Several of the city's established Spanish and Iberian-leaning kitchens have built dedicated menus for the programme:
22 Ships
The menu pairs a blanc de blancs Penedès with pan con tomate, a Garnacha with black octopus paella, and closes with homemade patxarán alongside Basque cheesecake.
Chueca
Seven courses run from tuna tartare and Ibérico ham on tomato bread through to a choice of Ibérico pork or sea bass with chorizo, finishing with flan de nata or Basque cheesecake.
Elsewhere, AMMO at the Asia Society Hong Kong Center (9 Justice Drive, Admiralty) runs a HK$328 three-course Spanish lunch menu Monday to Friday, Casa 218 in Causeway Bay (218 Gloucester Road) offers a HK$588 sharing menu for two with flamenco performances on 10 and 17 September (7–10pm), and Costa del Sol in Tsim Sha Tsui (Windsor Mansions, 17 Austin Avenue) has a HK$168 tasting lunch with mini paella and tapas.
Where to drink: wine tastings and happy hours
El Vaso de Oro in Sheung Wan (44 Sai Street) hosts a five-wine Barbadillo Experience dinner (HK$428 per person) built around sherry from Manzanilla and Pedro Ximénez grapes, while Corney & Barrow at Club Lusitano (16 Ice House Street, Central) runs a ticketed Rioja and Jerez tasting on 10 September, 6:30–8pm (HK$480 per person). Rooftop bar Eyebar (30/F, iSQUARE, Tsim Sha Tsui) adds a Cava, vermouth negroni and white sangria menu for the fortnight, and Soho tapas spot El Cerdo (38 Elgin Street) is running a buy-one-get-one happy hour on Inedit Damm beer, plus a Catalan Inedit night on 24 September.
For home drinking, Winerack's five Hong Kong locations and Yui Kee Wines are both offering discounts of up to 30% on Spanish wine for the full run, and gourmet importer Fiesta is giving a 5% online discount with the code EATSPAINDRINKSPAIN26.
Which venue should you pick first?
For a special-occasion dinner, book Chueca or the 22 Ships wine pairing early — both are limited-time set menus at established, well-reviewed kitchens, so they're the most likely to sell out toward the second week. If you're after something lower-key, AMMO's weekday lunch and Costa del Sol's tasting set are easy, wallet-friendly ways to try the programme without a reservation scramble. Wine lovers with a free Wednesday evening should prioritise the Corney & Barrow tasting, since it is capped by ticket and the most tightly curated pour list of the fortnight.
Good to know: several venues (22 Ships, Chueca, El Vaso de Oro) take bookings through their own sites or SevenRooms/Bistrochat links rather than by phone alone — book at least a few days ahead for peak weekend dinner slots, since tables for the set menus are shared with regular walk-in service.
Eat Spain Drink Spain slots into a busy September for the city's dining calendar alongside the return of Hong Kong Wine & Dine Festival later in the season and the neighbourhood's own PMQ dining and shopping scene, which hosts several of this year's participating venues.
