Directions

Set inside a beautifully restored traditional courtyard near Houhai Lake, Pebbles offers a genuinely atmospheric café experience with good espresso drinks, afternoon tea, and a serene garden setting. It's one of the few places where the setting itself justifies the slightly higher price — sitting in the courtyard on a clear day is a real Beijing pleasure. Service is attentive and the space is well-maintained. Booking ahead for weekend afternoons is wise.
