The Courtyard Bistro is the perfect place for a business meeting or to simply unwind after exploring the sights and sounds of the ever-bustling metropolis of Beijing. The bistro’s tranquil and peaceful setting truly is an oasis of calm in the heart of China’s capital.
Robert Van Eerde, CEO of STEM™ Boutique Hotels and the person behind the vision and creation of the Courtyard Bistro, felt that this area of Beijing needed a casual courtyard restaurant and quality bar which serves food and drinks in a homely environment. He believes that good value and dining in a relaxing and unique atmosphere are key ingredients in creating a memorable dining experience. And the Courtyard Bistro is indeed an ideal place to meet your friends or business colleagues to a catch up on the day’s events.
The informality and service style of the Courtyard Bistro originates in France. Plush sofas and umbrellas in a garden setting offer guests true comfort whilst dining in a unique, yet traditional Chinese environment. The hospitable waiting staff with rolled-up sleeves and maroon aprons further enhance the dining experience. Our waiter’s uniforms combine classic Chinese and bistro traditions and match their style of service perfectly. Wine is served table-side in ceramic cups, another unique touch designed to keep your wine at perfect temperature at all times.
The décor inside the main restaurant features wall murals depicting traditional hutong culture. These hand-painted masterpieces are part of the cultural program the restaurant showcases and speak to Robert van Eerde’s vision to promote China to both foreign visitors and to Beijing locals. In addition, artistic works from other renowned artists are on display throughout Red Wall Garden Hotel, home of the Courtyard Bistro.
The Courtyard Bistro serves Chinese cuisine that is inspired by the eight main culinary areas in China. A special section of our menu is dedicated to “Beijing Street Food”, interpreted and prepared by our creative Executive Chef, Chen Lin Feng, and is served snack-style or as an appetizer. As is customary in China, the dishes are served “family style” and can be shared, so patrons have the chance to experience a variety of dishes and embark on a journey through Chinese cuisine. Our chefs focus on seasonality and freshness which are strong elements of Chinese culinary culture. Our menu therefore changes monthly in order to pay tribute to these traditional principles.
An exciting option for diners is to select our daily “Chef’s Specials” listed on the menu chalkboards situated both in the open-air dining area and within the main restaurant. The popular noodle kitchen is an open kitchen set in the courtyard where diners can watch the chefs preparing daily noodle specials and dumplings.
