The Experience
What your day looks like
This is our most popular food tour in Beijing! You will start your evening with a cold beer when you meet your guide at an easy-to-find central location at Beijing's Shichahai Metro Station. Then stroll your way through the narrow streets and alleys of Beijing's hutongs to try the best local food in the city at places where only locals go. You won't see any other tourists, these are family-run restaurants that you can't find on your own. Between food stops, you'll be able to chat with your English-speaking guide about the city while drinking unlimited local beer. While visiting our 4 seated eateries, you will get to learn about the families that have been making their specialties for generations. You'll learn how it's made and what makes it so special to Beijing locals. You will eat Beijing hotpot with a view + a pint of local crafted beer, eat the best noodles in Beijing in a hutong courtyard, and wrap delicious dishes in freshly made Beijing wraps, plus more!

All dietary requests must be communicated at the time of booking. When booking online, you will have the opportunity to let us know if you have any dietary requirements or special requests. Please use the following information to understand if this tour is right for you. This tour can accommodate vegetarian travelers, including those who are pescatarian and those who do not eat beef, pork, seafood, shellfish, and/or mutton. However, there will not always be direct substitutes for every dish that we try on the tour. For example, at our 3rd stop we order fried buns filled with beef, and the restaurant does not provide any substitutions. Instead, we order different dishes for those that do not eat meat. Please note that every stop we visit during the tour does use meat in their kitchen. This tour cannot accommodate vegan or gluten-free travelers. Wheat products are featured at every stop, in sauces like soy sauce and in tour highlights like noodles and doughs. There are no substitutes or alternatives available. This tour also cannot accommodate severe allergies as we do not have control over the preparation for your food.

The food was excellent, both guides very engaging. A smaller group would have been preferred as it was tough to get all 13 of us around most of the tables. All in all a great experience and we would do it again without hesitation.
