The 10 Best Bars & Clubs in Shinjuku, Kanto

May 21, 2021 Harland Bartelt

Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

This place lives up to its reviews. We found this bar online through searching around for interest bars in Tokyo. This place was highly rated, and since my fiancee and I were fans of drinking and magic, this seemed like a perfect fit. Long story short - it is a 3500 yen all-you-can-drink for 90 minutes menu with a live show and some close-up magic performances right at your table. This is the only option available, but it is well worth the money. The magicians are very entertaining and sufficiently technically skilled. The close up magic is particularly entertaining, since it is typically performed when there are multiple guests (hence a wide range of angles) and each magician has a different performance for variety. Overall, this is a great deal for its price and it had great entertainment, showmanship and customer service for its price. My fiancee and I were very impressed, and we would certainly come again.

This place is an absolute hidden gem. Little hard to find but once inside you feel like you’ve found a secret club. Koji can create drinks based on what flavors or liquors you like and you will be amazed. I highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to experience a true cocktail masterpiece in Shinjuku.
