3 Best Nightlife in Qingdao, Beijing to Shanghai

Strong Ale Works

Fodor's choice
It's well worth seeking out this hidden gem, the only outlet of a long-standing local brewery run by an American and his Chinese partners. The pint-size, shabby-chic bar has great music and at least 10 incredibly tasty and inventive beers to sample at all times.

Laofei Bar (2nd Bar)

This lively sports bar has numerous screens, games tables, an English-speaking staff, and a full bar with a decent menu of classic pub grub. A small crowd of friendly expats tends to gather here at night, so it's a great spot if you're missing the camaraderie of your hometown pub.

Tsingtao Brewery Bar

At the Tsingtao Brewery Bar you can drink from the source. In front of the Tsingtao Brewery Museum, it's cavernous, brightly lit, and packed in high season with convivial gangs of beer-swilling Chinese tourists.
