After a run from 1996 to 2004, the new Maoming Lu location of Hard Rock Cafe is the Shanghai return for the brand. It's got two floors: dining, bar, and boutique on the first floor; stage, bar, and audience seating on the second floor. American diner-style eats on the menu (burgers, ribs, steaks), party hearty drinks on offer (a selection of mojitos and margies, along with beers and their signature cocktails), the boutique selling the shirts that your dad used to paint his boat in, and the walls of pop music memorabilia. For live music expect a populist focus. Pub rock to keep the party going. Cover bands. School of Rock bands. Price-wise, it tilts upwards. Burgers are around 120rmb. Main courses around 150rmb. Cocktails around 75rmb or so.
