Off to Beijing in a couple of weeks for a fieldtrip. Just enquiring whereabouts the best bars and clubs are in the city.
Any help would be greatly received!
Cheers

Cool place to go Tom. Was there in December.
Sanlitum South Bar St the popular hang out .
Durty Nellys, was a fave of mine, cheap 4 a bite 2 eat as well. Milan Club not bad but a bit pricy, Nashville is ok and The Jam. (live music) Porgys is a real good atmosphere as well
Really do recommend late night at Aloha for the hilarious in house band doing Brit pop, CD Cafe although a bugger to find. Ask the hotel or locals.
Get Lucky Bar ( trust me you will there) is a good place near the market but you will have to get a taxi to take you. Decent music if you like indie punk etc...good beer as well.
Be careful of girls in bars with your phone etc although most are very nice and very friendly.
Enjoy.

Thanks a lot for the info JR.
We are staying about 3km away from Tianenmen Square on the Yongan Road in the Xuanwu district.
I'm quite looking forward to going to some authentic chinese bars clubs etc that aren't geared at tourists. Though some of your recommendations do sound quite appealing!
