Far away from the chaos of Beijing and set among a small orchard outside of Shunyi, this classy European/California inspired venue is an expat institution in Beijing.

With an organic menu and many ingredients grown on site, the food at The Orchard is beyond healthy. The settings are magnificently tranquil making use of recycled wood and intricate wrought ironwork. With a small pond, lawn and large patio, it is a perfect place to let the kids run wild. Given its serene and well manicured settings, it's easy to overlook The Orchard's menu. Don't. The food and wine are fairly priced and rich in flavor. Desserts are often a god send. Perfect for escaping Beijing in style.
