Sharing owners with Cox, Rickshaw enlivens a long-languishing corner of Sanlitun. With a pool table and sports on the big screen TV, it cultivates a guy’s guy kind of feeling. But with Wi Fi, good cocktails, “energy salads” and one of the most pleasant balconies in Beijing, it brings in a diverse, after-work crowd. Perfect for anytime anyone.

The Kiwi-themed Tanewha has a loyal following. Wooden floors and candlelight lends the place an air of sophistication. The popular pool table draws a lot of business. The music is a mix of rock, jazz, R&B and soul. Tanewha sports a large selection of lagers and mixed-drinks as well as good bar food.

Another one of Sanlitun’s long running bars, Skyline usually depends on spillover from the neighbouring Boys & Girls bar. The atmosphere is loud, smoky and there’s usually a barrage of pop music blasting from the speakers. Drinks and food are standard for the bar street strip.

This bar-boutique sets itself apart from its neighbours by offering candles of all shapes, sizes, colours and aromas along with standard Bar Street booze. And then there’s paintings for sale that adorn the walls. Performances of artistic and musical varieties go down regularly, as do rotating art exhibits and multimedia projects.

The prize for Sanlitun’s gaudiest sign goes to the ‘No. 52′, a stone edificed joint with the monstrous numerals hanging over the entrance. The inside has been expanded and is basically your standard bar street arrangement. Drink prices are standard.
