Yeats

Yeats is a modern Irish bistro and bar located on Yanping Road, one of Shanghai’s popular eating and drinking streets. Helmed by executive chef/founder Curt Evans and restaurant manager Ming Wang (formerly of Bastard), Yeats presents a menu that blends Irish soul with French elegance and subtle Chinese flavors. Think of all the Irish classics — potatoes, stews, fried snacks — but all elevated. The beverage program features traditional and natural wine coupled with cocktails made with Irish base spirits and Chinese ingredients. And of course, Guinness on draft. It’s a cozy, handsome space with tables wrapping around a central bar.
