Club Obiwan manages to promote a gastronomic & nightlife concept of diversity integrated in one place. During the Day a cosy CAFÉ and BISTRO with relaxed atmosphere, awesome coffee and soon international home-style kitchen, at night a chilled BAR/LOUNGE and small but intimate DANCEHALL, Club Obiwan offers something for every taste. The stylish interior design emphasizes Obiwan's special character and adds to its mutability therefore making it a comfy and welcoming alternative to Beijing's bar and club scene. Being the only three-storeyed building in the neighbourhood, the jewel of the Club is its rooftop patio- with unrivalled view over Xihai lakeside and the surrounding hutong.

To all you movie freaks out there, the derivation of Club Obiwan’s name won’t come as a surprise to you… Spielberg’s creation of a Triad-owned Club called Obi Wan is only one of the sly hints as George Lucas and Steven Spielberg are constantly referring to each other’s movies in their own.
The fictional club set in Shanghai’s 1930’s is a sparkling but dangerous place to have a drink and spending your night there might even make some serious help from a Chinese kid with bricks under its feet necessary to get you home safely.
By contrast the non-fictional Club Obiwan now opened in Beijing’s 21st century is not Triad-owned therefore making it a much safer place for you to hang out and have a fun night…though we can’t really guarantee for the safety of your ride home as it totally depends on Beijing’s taxi drivers’ skills… But at least you won’t have to face the risk of a shooting with some gloomy Chinese mafia guys as Indy…

Club Obiwan is located in an old industrial building of the 60’s and offers a lakeside spot in the Northeast off the Houhai track. Being the only three-storeyed house in the immediate Hutong neighbourhood it provides an unrivalled view over the waters of Xihai lakeside and surroundings. Every of the three levels has its own style and design, offering you a relaxed getaway and hang-out-spot from Beijing’s hustle and bustle in the afternoons and a stylish yet laid back party option in the city’s diverse nightlife scene.

Whether during the day or at night, the 2nd floor CAFÉ/LOUNGE with its distinctive interior décor invites to make yourself at home. Nourish your work or study stressed brain with a freshly grinded and brewed coffee. The espresso beans imported from a small roaster in Rome are prepared in an original Italian Fiorenzato Ducale aka “The Machine”. Enjoy a wide selection of delicious cocktails and various other alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks and get the afterwork-feeling with regularly featured DJs of various styles. Satisfy your appetite with a tasty snack or full meal freshly prepared by our Western Chef “Tiktik” Ohad.

There are a lot of patios in Beijing. And some might be bigger or closer to your home, but try to find one with that kind of view…
Bring a page-turner, get a boule of café au lait, a latte macchiato in a glass or defeat Beijing’s dry and dusty summer days with milkshakes and smoothies in the lakeside breeze.
