Cafe Flatwhite Opens New Stores in Wangjing, CBD, and Jianguomenwai

In the past year, Cafe Flatwhite, whose flagship location in 798 has recently been renovated, has added three new stores to the Beijing food and beverage landscape, for a total of 13 outlets.

The cafe, owned by a China-born Kiwi family, and inspired by New Zealand café culture, has its own coffee roastery and bakery, ensuring high quality and fresh produce. Our personal favorites are their flatwhite (of course), and their burgers and salads. 

The New Zealand beef fillet salad (RMB 88), which has thinly sliced beef, cherry tomatoes, parmesan shaves, capers, rucola, and salad greens with fresh dressing, is a special favorite The beef gives the salad that little bit extra nutrition, meaning you won't go hungry just after you've eaten.

Incidentally, Cafe Flatwhite is also where I found one of the best veggie burgers in town. It was a burger with smoked tofu, plenty of avocado, salt roasted beetroot tapenade, onion jam, salad, and fries (RMB 65). The fact that the veggie burger was not only tofu or beetroot was a sigh of relief, and a generous portion of avocado is always welcome.

For those who aren't vegetarian, their New Zealand beef burger (RMB 68) is tasty. It comes as a juicy beef patty covered with cheddar cheese, red onion jam, lettuce, tomato, a fried egg, and bacon, as well as a side salad and fries.

These are the addresses for their new locations if you want to go and give them a test drive, whether you're looking for somewhere to have lunch during a busy work day, or somewhere to meet a friend on the weekend, Cafe Flatwhite now has more locations in order to do just that:
