Here's what can be read at http://caravanistan.com/visa/china/

Osh consulate

Address: in Lenin street

May 2014: They don’t issue visas at the moment but in 2-3 months it might be possible. They dont have the proper equipment yet. The visa registration required by the Chinese consulate in Bishkek can be done in Osh for 120 som (be careful, pay at the kassa and not to the women stamping your passport, she demands 200 som. In Lenin street you will also find the immigration Office OVIR. (not the police station as mentionned in the LP).

As of late Sep 2015, Osh Chinese consulate still cannot issue visas. It is on Lenin next to Bayana hostel, north of the stadium, in case people want to keep checking.
