[Updated Jan 26]

Spring Festival is coming up, and if you didn't jump onto the flight or train-booking bandwagon early enough, you may find yourself stuck in Beijing for the week.

To make sure you aren't left pouting out in the cold in front of a closed door at your favorite bar or restaurant, below are details on opening and closing times of our favorite establishments throughout Spring Festival (Jan 27 through Feb 2 if not indicated specifically). If your restaurant or bar isn't listed, please comment or send us a message and we will update accordingly.

We'd suggest ringing ahead anyway if you're unsure if the venue will be open, as locations may be forced to change their opening times again closer to the date to deal with staffing issues. For all venue contact information, click "Read more".

Meanwhile, from all of us here at the Beijinger and the True Run Media family, we would like to wish you and your loved ones a prosperous New Year! May this coming Year of the Fire Rooster bring you all the best that life has to offer. Gong xi fa cai!
