Unico Bar

Unico Bar (英之) is a bar at No. 66 Binjiang Road in Xiufeng District, Guilin, on the bank of the Li River in China's Guangxi region. Binjiang Road follows the river through the central city, and the bar's location gives it a quieter, more riverside character than the dense bar strip around Zhengyang Pedestrian Street, although the two are in the same part of town and reachable by a short taxi ride or walk.

The bar is listed as open daily from 12:00 until 02:00, so it serves both as an afternoon stop and as a late-night venue. The crowd is typically a blend of local young professionals, university-age residents and travelers who have come to see the Li River and the Two Rivers and Four Lakes area. Dress is casual, and there is no door policy to speak of. The mood is relaxed and sociable rather than high-energy.

Music is generally at background level, which keeps conversation easy. The drinks programme is that of a standard Chinese city bar: beer by the bottle, spirits, mixed drinks and soft drinks, with snacks available. Visitors typically spend about ¥80 (about US$12) per person on a few drinks, in line with the $$ price band. Signature cocktails have not been confirmed for this venue, so the menu on arrival is the best guide.

There is no cover charge. Evenings are the busiest period, with Friday and Saturday seeing the largest crowds and weeknights noticeably calmer. Reservations are usually unnecessary for small parties, but larger groups can call ahead to secure seating. Bottle service is not a defining feature of the venue.

Visitors often pair a drink here with an evening stroll along the river or a ride on the Two Rivers and Four Lakes night cruise, which operates from piers nearby in central Guilin. Mobile payment through Alipay or WeChat Pay is standard in the city, so visitors without a linked wallet should bring cash as a backup.
