Bar question (Tokyoites look here)
I know there's a lot of threads about clubbing etc in Japan. But this question is much more specific, so I think it deserves a thread of its own.
I want you to give me suggestions for a bar / bars in Tokyo that fulfills these criteria (or something along the lines): * Central location (as in not out in Saitama or anythiing) * Cheap bear (Well as cheap as possible) * Preferably more than like three sorts of beer to choose from (this one is less important) * People. As in, I want a place that usually is filled with people, and not an abandoned bar with 1 guy and his dog. I'd rather it were a mixed crowd (some of the "irish" pubs and whatnot are 95% gaijins, which is kinda boring) * Size. The size of the place is not so important, I don't need the place to be a stadium. Small bars does often have a very nice feeling to them, in my experience. Please, help me :) |
Only place I can think of by name is Gas Panic in Shibuya, there's one in Ropponngi as well. It's a Reggae / Hip Hop bar. We went on a weekday and the place was packed. I know they had more than one beer on tap and bottles, don't remember the price cuz I was pretty drunk by the time we got there. Good mix of people. The place was kind of on the small side.
GASPANIC My favorite bar in Japan is in Osaka http://www.rockrock.co.jp/ |

There's a little dive under the train tracks in Yurakucho which is famous because the owner and "mastaa" is an American. He has been running it for over 10 years and says he is there to stay. The beer is cheap and the otsumami is cheap, fresh and delicious. Can't remember the name of the place though.

How about bars in Shibuya, know of any good spots? Was at the dubliners a few days ago, nicely located but around 850 for the cheapest pint wasn't "jippie!", especially when they got like 4-5 types of beers in total (at an "irish" pub, wth?). |
i thought he was british.
the place is called 新日の基 (しんひのもと). there is a really good place in harajuku/omotesando called ゆかり or あかり i think, can't remember which. |
Cool. Thanks for the name.
Where in haraj/omotes. ? |
Google Maps
walk north along the tracks, take a right at the サンキュービル. walk another 20 metres and u should see it on ur left. brownish wooden building just at the beginning of the slop. if u zoom in around the サンキュービル the building hosting ゆかり will show up. |
