Small and cozy bar, really nice staff. Alc. prices are ok, selection is basic but sufficient. Didn't try cocktails so can't vouch for those

Super awesome locals! Small, but that’s relative in Japanese bars. Great time all around, super great barman!

Tiny little bar with a very entertaining bartender/owner. Had a blast despite it being a lonely Tuesday with cold rainy weather. Everything in Shibuya closes too damn early on weekdays, this place stayed open at least until 3 am.

Wonderful, charming place and people. Liq is kinda cheap, and side dish is, too. Thanks for the wonderful time, and shout-out to the people, tacoyaki machine, and the bartender himself.

This is the best bar hidden in Shibuya, hands down. Small place but packs a great atmosphere. My first night in Shibuya turned into one of the greatest most unforgettable nights ever. Please stop in and enjoy this gem as much as I did.

Go here for whisky and the owner, Kota - he’s ace and the bar is brill. Also, they’re just venturing into the craft beer market. It’s tiny and feels like you’re entering someone’s home but lovely.

This place is awesome! Kota is the absolute man, he’s really funny and hospitable. They’re launching craft beer in November, you should definitely go!
