Frommer's Review

This was once Beijing's most famous film cafe, but it's since lost that title to Box Cafe when it moved from its location in a charming (now demolished) hutong east of Peking University. Now at the Beijing Institute of Technology, it seldom shows films but is still popular with students, foreign and Chinese both. A second branch south of the main entrance to Fragrant Hills Park (tel. 010/8259-0040), has a pleasant remoteness and a large outdoor deck with views of the park, while the largest branch, just west of Wudaokou metro stop (tel. 010/8286-7025), has less charm but is handy to the university district. This coffee shop is on the rise, and they have a total of seven branches throughout the city. All serve adequate coffee and Western snacks, and have wireless Internet. Open daily from 9am to 12:30am.
