Liqun Roast Duck Restaurant
利群烤鸭店
A courtyard roast duck restaurant hidden deep in the hutongs east of Qianmen, offering a rustic setting and an authentic old Beijing hutong vibe.
Located at No. 11 Beixiangfeng Hutong, hidden deep in the hutongs on the east side of Qianmen, this small courtyard restaurant features a simple, unpretentious layout. Multiple guides recommend it for those wanting to experience a genuine hutong atmosphere. You generally need to order a whole duck, and some sources note that the duck carcass can be stir-fried with salt and pepper. Seating is limited, so phone reservations in advance are recommended. The average cost is about 160–280 CNY per person, with recent reviews pricing a whole signature duck at around 368 CNY. The owner prefers cash, English service is basic, and you should allow extra time to find the entrance.
