Great food, great guide
Had a great time with Haitao as our guide. Would never have found these places on our own. Good breadth of different places and cuisines. Haitao spoke perfect English, was very helpful and a genuinely nice guy. Recommended!
Response from the operator: Haitao’s perfect English really made your evening in Beijing easy to follow! It was great to read that you enjoyed the mix of places and cuisines and felt so well looked after on the tour.

Fantastic food tour, thank you Haitao
We love feed tours and this was a really good one. Haitao made everyone feel at ease from the first minute, the choice of venues was perfect with walks in between. Haitao was a great guide and you’ll be lucky to have him
Response from the operator: Thanks for this lovely note — it means a lot that you felt at ease right from the first minute, and that the venue choices and walks in between worked so well for you. Haitao will be especially happy knowing your evening felt that smooth and easy!

Amazing!!!
Positive experience!! Well-organised tour from the hotel pick-up to the entire itinerary. To give an added value was Angela, our very nice guide, who told us a bit of curiosity and took us around and made us discover new dishes!!!! And at the end a nice souvenir video made by her!!! Thank you so much Angela!!!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the food, itinerary, and especially your time with Angela. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with her! We hope to welcome you again on another Lost Plate food adventure! 😊

Why this scores 86
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Beijing Hutong Walking Food and Beer Tour at Hidden Restaurants: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Beijing.
How much does Beijing Hutong Walking Food and Beer Tour at Hidden Restaurants cost?
+
Prices start at $64 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Beijing usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Beijing Hutong Walking Food and Beer Tour at Hidden Restaurants take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Beijing is not rushed.
Is Beijing Hutong Walking Food and Beer Tour at Hidden Restaurants worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1,422 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Beijing, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Beijing Hutong Walking Food and Beer Tour at Hidden Restaurants?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Beijing Hutong Walking Food and Beer Tour at Hidden Restaurants suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Beijing Hutong Walking Food and Beer Tour at Hidden Restaurants?
+
Around 498 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Beijing can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Beijing and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Beijing Hutong Walking Food and Beer Tour at Hidden Restaurants start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Beijing within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Beijing?
+
On Outty we rank every Beijing experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mubus: Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour with Summer Palace Options, Beijing: Top 6 Highlights All Inclusive 2-Day Private Tour, Private Mutianyu Great Wall Trip With English-Speaking Driver. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Beijing?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Beijing?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
