A Celebration Of Good Food
Welcome to Beach St Bistrot, a contemporary European neighbourhood bistro born from the father–son collaboration of David and Brian Chin. Our menu pays homage to our deep love of Spanish, Italian, and French cuisine—shaped by 30 years of travel, taste-memories, and culinary exploration.
Here, we serve deeply satisfying and robust dishes sans gimmicks or unnecessary frills, infused with the bold flavours of our Asian heritage and inspired by personal journeys. We honour Penang’s vibrant bounty by sourcing local produce alongside the finest ingredients from around the world—an approach where good ingredients shine, rules are meant to be bent, and the joy of a great meal is always the star.
Thoughtful food, made with love and purpose.
Nestled in a charming 100-year-old shophouse in the heart of Georgetown’s heritage area, Beach St Bistrot is home to three distinct rooms that define its soul: The Communal Room, The Brasserie, and The White Room. Join us for hearty, scrumptious dishes shared amid laughter, conversation, and, of course, plenty of wine from our thoughtfully curated selection of Old and New World labels. Santé!
Father & Son Team
When David embarked on his journey to open his first restaurant, Brian was merely 3 years old. Today, after a remarkable span of 33 years, what once seemed inevitable has now become a vivid reality. This venture symbolizes a captivating collaboration, a harmonious fusion, and perhaps even the pinnacle of a lifetime's worth of experiences, combining the perspectives of both youth and wisdom.
However, amidst the evolution, there remains one enduring trait that defines the Chin family, a trait that has consistently served as the cornerstone of every family meal, every joyous gathering, and every celebratory occasion - taste. Robust, delicate, intricate, in depth, multidimensional and even moving.
And so, as the flames continue to dance, we invite you take a seat at this table where our stories are told through each dish.
