Located in College Park’s City Hall Plaza, Li Chun Cafe serves authentic Chinese cuisine with subtle modern touches. Best known for its creative take on traditional Chinese “bings”—crispy, flavorful wraps rooted in centuries of culinary history—the restaurant offers a fresh yet familiar dining experience. The cafe features recipes that were crafted by the owner, Hua Wang, highlighting homemade flavors and true Chinese authenticity. From spicy, crispy chips paired with a sweet, sesame–infused dipping sauce to carefully prepared matcha drinks, each item contributes to a cozy and welcoming atmosphere, made even better by relaxing music and a warm, friendly staff.

With enough space to serve 40 to 50 guests, Li Chun Cafe is well-equipped to host large groups. It regularly welcomes crowds for university catering events, birthday celebrations, and casual gatherings. Xue Ling is the brand manager and operator of the restaurant, and the daughter of Hua Wang. She says “We served a full house for a birthday celebration of 40 guests just three weeks ago.” Whether indoors or on the outdoor patio, guests find the setting perfect for both small meals and big occasions. Its community-oriented approach makes it a reliable go-to for College Park locals and students alike.
Strategically located near the University Of Maryland, the cafe naturally draws a mix of students, professors, and residents. But it’s not just the location that keeps people coming back, it’s the food, the warmth, and the care put into every detail. For anyone craving an experience that blends tradition, flavor, and hospitality, Li Chun Cafe is a must-visit destination.
