吉士笠街(英语:Gutzlaff Street)是香港岛中环的一条后巷街道,近今时今日的中环中心和喜讯大厦的南面、嘉咸街工银大厦的东边、永隆商业大厦的西边、摆花街和中环大厦的北面。

历史

吉士笠街是在英治时期郭士立牧师命名。在香港开埠初期,邻近的摆花街西洋高级妓院集中地,由于当时西洋妓女及歌女应酬顾客,多穿着西服及皮鞋,因此不少澳门的裁缝及鞋匠在此街开铺及摆档,吸引大量西洋女子出入此地。

都市传说

该处地皮由一位美籍船长买入供养受他保护的澳门蜑家涉外婚妇吴亚娇。吴的名声渐渐显赫,大概由于其背景的缘故,时人称其为“红毛娇”,因吴亚娇居于吉士笠街,时人甚至称该街为“红毛娇街”。[1]亦由于此街开设了多间补鞋店,因而有“补鞋街”之称。

另有一说,这里曾有一名叫阿娇的女子帮洋人煮饭洗衫,在她去世后,街坊就称这儿为“红毛娇街”[2]
