Cafe Yardbird

Yardbird is a modern Japanese izakaya located in Hong Kong's bustling Sheung Wan neighbourhood, specialising in yakitori — Japanese‑style skewered chicken grilled over binchotan charcoal. Owned and operated by Chef Matt Abergel and Lindsay Jang, Yardbird is a family‑style, neighbourhood restaurant that combines the highest level of service with the best quality food and drinks in a fun, relaxed environment.

Yardbird is built around the conviviality of sharing grilled skewers in an energetic yet welcoming space. The focus is on exceptional quality chicken, cooked over binchotan to bring out deep, smoky flavours. Beyond yakitori, the restaurant offers a lively bar programme and a menu designed for grazing and sharing, making it a beloved destination for both casual dinners and special celebrations.
