Drink in Chongqing


Drink in Chongqing

There are many bars in Chongqing, but most are underpopulated. Generally the local bottled beer is ¥10, and the variety includes several local beers and even Guinness (expensive) on occasions. If you go to one of the small restaurants to eat, you can buy bottles of local beer at ¥3 upwards. As a warning, some bars have recently adopted a less pleasant method to send pretty girls to accompany and entertain you, and then ask for huge additional sums when you leave. Take care.
  • Marriot Sports Bar. Several branches offer the closest thing to proper beer, but be sure they get your beer from the pump and not the slop tray. A pint of Guiness will cost you ¥58, but during happy hour you can get two for one. Foosball, Pool and Darts available. �
  • Irish Pub Hong Ya Dong. This new place is a winner with a nice beergarden and great beers on tap.
  • Dee Dee's Bar, 86, Nanping Xinjie, Nanping, Nan An District, Chongqing 400060 (In Nanping south of Yangtze River, next to the (currently being refurbished Holiday Inn Yangtze)), +86 13808324216 (English & Chinese) ( , fax: +86 (0)23 86308068), . 5pm until late - daily. The original and one of a very limited number of expat Bars in Chongqing. Located in the Nanping area of Chongqing, Dee Dee's Bar is a regular hangout for expats and locals alike.

Some great food to soak up the alcohol also available - the MEGA Burger being one of the favourites alongside the best Fish & Chips available in Chongqing. (29.537980,106.563850)
