The weather is getting warmer, and it is time to move your muscles and bones to sweep away the "spring sleepiness". Why not take this to take a "new trip" to the Beijing cafe.
Around 2016, Beijing’s fine coffee maps quickly expanded. From the emergence of alley boutique coffee shops led by Yikado and Barista, to the popularity of more and more stores such as large and small coffees and METAL HANDS, the form of "boutique coffee" is becoming clearer in our minds.
We walked out of the concepts of Italian coffee such as " Mocha ", "latte", " cappuccino ", and discovered a more wonderful coffee world - here there are more beans and production options, more exquisite store decoration and design concepts, and more unique is that they coexist with Beijing's unique hutong culture.
Nowadays, most "hutong cafes" have moved out of the hutongs, and Beijing's "branded coffee map" has also changed accordingly. The weather is getting warmer, and it is time to go out for a walk and sweep the "spring sleepiness". Let's take this to take a "new trip" to the Beijing cafe.
il Gatto Yikado
2013 · Lishi Hutong 161

Speaking of il Gatto Yikado, "red" must not be missing. "Red Coffee and Yikaduo" is a husband-and-wife shop where Boss Zhao and his wife are bubbled. In 2013, they took root in Lishi Hutong. In the past 4 years, their loyal fan base has grown bigger and bigger. Whether it is Lao Zhao’s drinkers and dinner friends, the “coffee friends” of the two coffee shops, or simply the “fan friends” of the couple, they can follow and accompany each other all the way.

Force majeure made "Yikaduo" "transform" into a beer supermarket that can drink coffee in the summer of 2017, while "Red Coffee" persisted until the end of 2018 to completely close.



Fortunately, there is an intersection between the "open and close" of the store. In October 2017, Coffee Tags opened in Xicheng Huguo Temple - Yikado's new "sexually cold" store was located in Huguo Temple New World, adjacent to "Starbucks" and "Fuhuazhai Bunshop", and has become a room that is more popular among the decoration styles of the three stores.

In September of the following year, Lao Zhao found a region in the "Elephant Commune" of the Institute of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, which allowed Yikaduo to enter the most popular business district in Beijing, but he could just take a different approach and stay away from the hustle and bustle. The familiar room and piccolo quickly returned, accompanied by a brand new custom-made hall coffee cup and takeaway cup of different specifications. The spirit of "sharing" is what the new store wants to highlight, which also makes Yikaduo, who is already 5 years old, look younger.


In the next few months, they merged with Bubble Dogs at Xincheng International, which is mainstream in "tall culture". "Watching coffee - drinking spirits in - eating hot dogs when you are hungry" is another surprise to Yikaduo for fans. Where is

Berry Beans




Indoor space is divided into two pieces, one is a sofa with about four sets of sofas, and the other is a bar. The pullable glass door design allows each other to see through, while the unique open space in the yard is not covered. When the weather is good, it is a good place to cool off and breathe, no matter day and night. Berry Beans' signature drink combination "Traveling the World" is composed of three single bean hand-pulled styles from Africa, America and Asia.For a price of only 100, you can taste the different flavors of Jegachefi, Colombia and Mantening one by one. It has been a popular store since it was launched 3 years ago.

Another December in 2015, the boss Wei Hanye and the bosses of MEGA and TWOFACE opened "hard calluses" in the Sanlitun 3.3 building, respectively, and experienced their own coffee, vintage and hair salons. "Men's Retro and Modern" is the first impression of this collection that most people have of their own "manic" Berry Beans looks more hardcore. It’s a pity that Berry Beans’ Sanlitun store was closed at the end of last year because of the “hard calluses” of the original Berry Beans. The new "hard calluses" have been moved to the underground floor of the building, bringing together more brands with a wider venue. Now, if you miss Berry Beans' coffee, you have to go back to Zhujia Hutong. Where is

Barista


Barista Store. Before the renovation and upgrading,
also opened the store from the alley to Sanlitun, and Barista. The reason why the store is named "Barista" is because they think that barista is an important bridge between coffee and customers. From the first store in Wudaoying Hutong in 2015, to the garden store where you settled in a low-key manner, back to the newly opened second store Barista GoodWood, and of course, there is also the Dazu Square store in Yizhuang . Three boutiques and one (in their own words) "Lounge", which is worth checking in one by one.

Yizhuang Store


Sanlitun Store

Barista GoodWood
Although the menus of the three boutiques are synchronized, the flavors presented are also different due to the different preferences and techniques of baristas. As for the new face "GoodWood", it is a popular space - the second-floor Japanese building at No. 28 Wudaoying Hutong was decorated by them as a place worth sitting and chatting for a long time, or even being "slightly drunk". On the coffee, only hand-brewing is made here. The 2-3 hand-made desserts paired with are your necessary companion to enjoy a good atmosphere. The business hours here will be open until midnight - because the boss will take out whiskey and wine at night to entertain guests who want to go around the alley to find a bar after drinking coffee.

METAL HANDS


Another "popular" in Wudaoying Hutong is METAL HANDS, the boss Ding was a barista in Barista in his early years. After leaving, he opened his first store in the alley. The store name comes from Ding's obsession with machinery. The store treasure is the Italian trolley machine he found from his friends in his early years.


A year later, the second store was completed at Jiaodaokou . In the old house in the Ming Dynasty that had been in disrepair for many years, the unique historical heritage of the house coincided with Ding's retro plot. He personally participated in the design and construction, hoping to bring guests more space experience beyond coffee.


Last year, METAL HANDS successfully opened its store to Shanghai again, and Dirty is still the reason why people call in. The new products "Double Joy" and "Deep Sea Bomb" extended from it are regarded as a more "spicy", richer and smoother Dirty presentation.Where is

Size coffee


size coffee is the most popular internet celebrity coffee shop in 2016. Breaking out of the black, white and gray "industrial style" that most all-encompassing all-encompassing coffee shops, the bright "Yves Klein Blue" of large and small coffees is indeed eye-catching in terms of image. To go further, the reason why the small space in Xiangbai Hutong is famous is because of its numerous award-winning designs, the "B&B" in the front hall, the cafe and the backyard of the backyard, is extremely functional as if it was magically imposed. Therefore, the coffee shop of only 18 square meters has never been crowded since its opening. On the


product, the Italian unit price is between 20-25 yuan, and the most expensive hand-pull is only 40 yuan, which is very cost-effective. In addition, the tea drinks they cooperate with Smash A Cup are also used in beverage making. Whether it is tea buccino or tea latte, the taste and aroma are quite full, so even if you can't tolerate caffeine, you won't lose your mouth when it comes to "size".

Guomao Store


It is sad that the enthusiasm of large and small coffee in Xiangbai Hutong has not yet passed, so it has to succumb to the plan for rectification of the Hutong. Fortunately, their return was also quick, and there was more than one more person. In August 2017, the "Small" and the Youth Hostel brand Xingsun opened on the back street of the Forbidden City Beach. Subsequently, the Shared International Store, Beiluo Store and Qianmen Store of Guomao are working tirelessly. Compared with ordinary boutique coffee shops, the unique coffee shows more of their optimistic attitude towards life, fun and "ghost thinking". Just like the indispensable cup of coffee in your hands when visiting these places, it is an indispensable color point in life. Where is
