Tokyo Tea Rooms, a boutique late night cocktail bar experience, is launching in Canterbury in 2018, with guest mixologists and creative performance.

Introducing Tokyo Tea Rooms. Tokyo Tea Rooms will live and serve by the Japanese Ichi-go Ichi-e which loosely translates to One Time One Meeting – no two events or encounters will ever be exactly the same. This concept is embodied in traditional Japanese tea ceremonies. By embracing this approach, Tokyo Tea Rooms will take guests on a new and stimulating journey every time they visit, via unique design, evolving cocktail menus and exciting immersive live performances.
