According to Yahoo yahoo, Starbucks, the world's only ice room with Hong Kong-style nostalgia, will go out of business in mid-October next month.

According to reports, Starbucks announced on the official Facebook "Starbucks Hong Kong" that the Starbucks Duddell Street store with the theme of Hong Kong ice room style will be open until mid-October.

After hearing the news, many netizens said it was a pity to close Starbucks, the only ice room in the world, and some netizens also put forward suggestions. It is suggested that Starbucks can set up similar themed coffee shops in other regions in the future (Starbucks is an architect).

In response, Hong Kong Starbucks officials said: after that, Hong Kong Starbucks will continue to provide services at its Lan Kwai Fong branch near Central.

The Starbucks, which opened in 2009, is the only cafe in the world designed with the theme of Hong Kong's old icehouse, located on Duddell Street in Central (detailed address: the middle floor of the basement at 13 Duddell Street, Central).

In terms of design, Starbucks combines the nostalgic elements of the ice room style of Hong Kong in the 1950s and 1970s with the modern art style of "ice room and tea restaurant design", so it has a very unique Hong Kong style.

The icehouse is the forerunner of the Hong Kong tea restaurant and one of the representative symbols of Hong Kong culture. at first, it mainly made smoothie, coffee, milk tea, pineapple buns and other meals.

The Starbucks was designed by G.O.D, a brand known as the Hong Kong version of Ikea. Yang Zhichao, founder and chief designer, hopes to see the epitome and character of Hong Kong in this design, and at the same time make Hong Kong culture more popular and popular.

It is said that Starbucks calls this design style "ice room corner". It is also a unique Starbucks "ice room corner" style in the world, making it a major local punch-in resort, and has repeatedly maxed out social platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and Little Red Book.

Starbucks chose to work with the local lifestyle brand "good living" to show the "ice room corner" in its Duddell Street branch. Most interestingly, the stone steps at the gate of Starbucks have appeared in many films and television productions.

After entering from the "elegant seat inside" brand, this Starbucks is nostalgic Hong Kong ice room style. when you enter the store, you can feel the traditional ice room in old Hong Kong. at first glance, it still feels like the ice room unique to old Hong Kong.

Pictures released by Starbucks' official Facebook show that the store still retains elements such as antique collage tile walls, green iron windows, booths often seen in Hong Kong films, retro televisions, and handwritten "signboard menus" that mimic cafes.

Many netizens said earlier: this original Starbucks design style gives people a strong sense of the times and feelings, as if it went back to the '60s and' 70s (it feels like a TVB Hong Kong drama).

On the menu, the Starbucks not only sells coffee, but also adds Hong Kong-style drinks and desserts to the menu, providing consumers with a variety of local delicacies such as buttered pineapple buns, coffee egg towers, red bean pottage cakes and so on.

Although there are many unique Starbucks in the world, it is a pity that Starbucks with such nostalgia is the only Starbucks in the world, which is designed by ice rooms and cafes.
