Just tell me a few of your favorites

1. Dada Bar - No. 206, Gulou East Street/Per capita: 70 yuan/★★★★★

Not to brag, Dada Bar is the most unique bar in Beijing, just upstairs and downstairs from the famous Temple Livehouse. It is hard to believe that Dada Bar has developed into a landmark bar in Gulou in just two years, and I have been witnessing it almost every weekend in the past two years.

In terms of characteristics, independence, individuality and lack of pretense are enough to sum up this small bar. It’s said to be a bar, but in fact it’s really lively on weekend nights. It’s always crowded and there’s no way to get in. You don’t know which DJ or electronic musician will be performing live tonight, including Kode9, Goldie, Jimmy Edgar, and Jon Kennedy. , Emika, etc... (if you listen to electronic music, you will know these names) have all shown their special skills at Dada, and the super cool audience is hard to find in other bars or clubs

Just like the boss Michael did, he not only brought a real underground dance club to China, but also introduced the entire electronic music culture to Beijing...

Why not come to Dada to see it? Maybe you will also happen to see me standing in front of the DJ booth..

Business: 21:00-2:00 A.M. (Weekdays) / 21:00-6:00 A.M. (Weekend)

Recommendation: You should have fun!

2. Migas - 6th floor, Sanlitunna Garden / Per capita: 150 yuan / ★★★★★

Migas guests Most of them come here for two things, the terrace and paella. Needless to say about the terrace, it is so pleasant to have a drink in the summer or go on a date with your loved one. At the same time, as a Spanish restaurant, it goes without saying that his paella is not a 100% replica of the local taste, but you have to know that almost all of their chefs are from Spain (fortunate to get to know someone in the past few months) A chef...), the price is indeed a bit expensive, but it is worth it for the quality and environment

Recommended: Paella/Mojito (various flavors)

3. La-Bas Yuanfang - No. 34, Beisantiao, Jiaodaokou / Per capita: 60 yuan / ★★★★★

Although it is a little remote, it is a rare and good place. Yi women The boss Gaga and the French uncle Clement are very friendly, and there will be amazing performances from time to time. You can even meet Zhang Chu, Daxian or other gods here...

You can also try the Sparkling variety here. Complete. P.S. The female boss is good at singing and dancing...

Recommended: All kinds of Sparkling

4. 8-Bit - No. 49, Jiaodaokou South Street/Per capita: 50 yuan/★ ★★★★

This place does not rely on wine to attract you...but travel! play! ,right! This is a game, right? Nintendo, Sega, and even pixel games played on black and white TVs, this is so fucking cool! The boss is a pair of super (mei) cute (jie) love (cao) boyfriend and girlfriend. They will buy games from Hong Kong from time to time and bring them to the store.

In addition, they often organize tournaments for Street Fighter or racing games, and the winner will get a Gameboy or something like that... Don't let your boyfriend see this place! Stop at all!

Recommended: Games, what else... There will be several Happy Hours every week, you can check City Weekend

5. Ball House - Old Drum Tower Street, Xicheng District No. 40, Zhonglouwan Hutong (northeast side of the Bell Tower) / Per capita: 40 yuan / ★★★★★

If no one takes you here, you really have to look for a while; Let me tell you, you really don’t know; there is such a magical place hidden in a small alley on the east side of the bell tower. There is no sign, no house number, no promotion, and only regular customers and friends. It can be said that there are no people who come here. It's more or less alone, but as long as you know or have been there, you will definitely be willing to tell the people around you that there is such a place

The door is not big, but there is a hidden world after entering the door, with four billiard tables and five or six attics ( The lofts here have separate stairs and separate spaces), a game console, and a table football table, scattered in this warehouse-like building, it is really interesting

Recommended : Lemon honey, braised pork rice

6. Temple Bar/Livehouse - No. 206, Gulou East Street (upstairs of Dada Bar) / Per capita: 100 yuan / ★★★★★

If you can drink and eat, then Temple is simply good news for you. Beijing draft beer costs 10 yuan, and there are frequent buy-one-get-one-free activities, plus a group of Chinese and foreign rock saints who drink to death... you can watch it here from time to time. Visit some well-known Chinese rock circles. Of course, the quality of live performances here is also one of the best in Beijing. If you are hungry, you might as well try the burger here, it must be among the top 5 in Beijing! (You can compete with 4 Corner’s burgers), and I found a video introducing Temple burgers: /v_show/id_XNjY4MDYwMTI0.html

Recommended: Beijing draft beer, Jagermeister, spicy burgers, spicy hot dogs

7. Bar - No. 24, Beibingmasi Hutong, Xicheng District (near Jiaodaokou South Road) / Per capita: 40 yuan / ★★★★

The cheapest Jagermeister in Beijing: 15 yuan A glass of handmade jelly wine, etc. There is nothing novel about it, but it is run with care. The owner is a good friend of mine. If you go there, ask me if you can get a discount or something... I don’t know how much... :)))))))))

There are four all-you-can-drink packages: A·50 yuan for all-you-can-drink Beijing draft beer! B·150 Yuan for all-you-can-drink White Bear draft beer! C·100 yuan for all-you-can-drink cocktails (Screwdriver, Cuba Libre, Gin and Tonic)! D·150 yuan for all-you-can-drink cocktails (Package C Long Island Iced Tea, Mojito, Snail)

Recommended: Cranberry Jelly Rum

8. Malty Dog - No. 51, Beiluogu Lane, Dongcheng District/ Per capita: 50 yuan / ★★★★

Mainly engaged in craft beer, with hundreds of varieties, including a variety of bottled beers and home-brewed beer selected by the store - Niubi Wheat (30 yuan) The name reminds me of Beijing's Hutong flavor. It is bitter at first and has a light fragrance aftertaste. Campari Girl (40 yuan) is based on beer and paired with the distinctive bitterness of Campari wine, which will leave a deep impression on people. Owner Jeff’s other shop, Mai Mai Bar, is also nearby, but it specializes in cocktails and single malt whiskey. If you are interested, you can also try it

9. Beiluo Bread Bar - No. 70, Beiluogu Lane / Per capita: 50 yuan / ★★★★★

It is said to be a Bar, but in fact it is more like a Cafe. The afternoon tea here is very popular in the surrounding foreign circles. The combination of the foreign boss and the Chinese boss is very interesting. Although the drinks and food are Western-style, they still retain the enthusiasm of Chinese service.

P.S. You have to learn English well when you come here, because the menus are printed on the wall...

10. Siif Bar - No. 67 Beiluogu Lane/Per capita: 60 yuan/★ ★★★

Still a great place to visit in the summer. Although a bar with a terrace was mentioned earlier, "if" is more interesting because it not only has a terrace for barbecue, There is also a super cool basement. The basement is not big, but it is enough to play for a while. On weekends, there will be DJs in the basement playing "ferocious" music such as Drum n Bass and Dubstep. It is quite interesting to listen to the music, dance, play billiards and have a drink. I heard from the bar owner, Brother Yang, that it will be expanded in the future and the basement will be doubled or tripled in size... If that's true, Beijing's party animals should add a new place to their weekend itinerary...

Recommendation: Homemade smoothies - the best in Beijing

11. El Nido - No. 59, Fangjia Hutong, Andingmen Nei Street / Per capita: 50 yuan / ★★★★

El Nido has always been a specialty tavern in Fangjia Hutong. It is cozy and the wine is not expensive, so many foreigners around here choose to spend their evenings here. In 2012, El Nido opened another branch (the two stores are less than 100 meters apart). The menu added some Western-style light meals on top of drinks, but unfortunately they demolished the kitchen last year and renovated it into It’s a tavern that specializes entirely in beer... Of course, this is definitely good news for (home-brewed) beer lovers

12. Lantern Club/Bar Lantern Club - 100 meters north of the west gate of Gongti/Per capita : 120 yuan / ★★★★★

Similar to Dada Bar, it is also an electronic music club/bar, but more inclined towards nightclubs or clubs. Of course, the music is also more mainstream, mostly house. (Tech-House, Deep House), Techno, Minimal. If you can't accept the noisy and casual environment like Dada, you might as well come to Lantern.

P.S. Admission to most weekend activities is charged

13. Luce - No. 138, Old Drum Tower Street (Tanggong Hutong entrance) / Per capita: 200 yuan / ★★★★

This is an old restaurant and bar... quite low-key and authentic, and the smoked salmon and avocado salad has a high click-through rate.

Of course, the drinks are also good and open until late at night

14. - Per capita: 40 yuan/★★★★★

If we talk about Nightlife in Beijing, we have to mention XP/Xiaoping, formerly known as D22. This identity alone is legendary enough. By chance, if you are an outlier and hate pop music, then you have come to the right place. XP, which never bows to mainstream music, brings you not only experimental music, but also the sound of the future...
