Thank you for viewing. I appreciate follows, likes, saves, and Instagram follows as they motivate me. On Instagram, I also recruit companions to visit hard-to-reserve restaurants. The interior of the restaurant is very dark, making it difficult to read the menu, but the atmosphere is nice. The staff were not very friendly, but there were quite a few types of alcohol available.

It is close to Ueno Station and Okachimachi Station. I often go to Ueno and drink there. When you go down underground, there are many hidden bars. The cocktails and cheese are delicious. The bartenders are also very nice. It's a bar where even women can easily enter alone.

I visited the store just before closing on Sunday, but the staff were very friendly and I really liked the atmosphere inside the store! I didn't know anything about the types of alcohol or the menu, so next time I go, I want to make sure I have plenty of time to go back to this store.

I have visited this place with my partner a few times. The dimly lit interior is composed of glass walls, candles, sculpted counter, black decor, etc., creating a really nice atmosphere. It's a bit hard to tell what's "samurai" about it, but I'm sure they have various concepts. The atmosphere is great. There are counter seats and sofa seats, and even on a Sunday night, it's full by 10 p.m. It's recommended for a second stop as smoking is allowed. They can make any cocktail you ask for. Even if you're not good with alcohol, they will tailor it to your taste. However, the cocktail I had last time had a slight chlorine smell, so there may be some variation depending on the day. The prices are reasonable for a bar, as long as you don't drink too much. The food mainly consists of light snacks typical of a bar. I would definitely use it again if I'm drinking nearby.

After drinking at an izakaya near Ueno Station, we decided to have a few more drinks and visited "Japanese Bar Samurai" located nearby. The place is in the basement of a building on the left side after passing the first intersection heading towards Okachimachi from JR Ueno Station. Despite the name "Japanese" and "Samurai," I imagined it to be a Japanese-style bar, but I was surprised when I entered. The bar was quite spacious with a back bar, counter seats, and table seats. The dimly lit interior had a stylish atmosphere with no Japanese feel. We were a group of two and managed to sit at the counter. The counter was made of black marble with a rough surface, giving a cool yet impressive feeling. There were three male bartenders behind the counter. While they had whiskey at the back bar, the focus seemed to be more on gin, vodka, liqueurs, and cocktails. I ordered the classic "Gimlet" with Beefeater gin, which was decent. I then tried to order a "Gibson," but they couldn't make it without cocktail onions, so I settled for a "Martini" instead. The Martini was dry with less dry vermouth, fitting my taste and quite enjoyable. After a night of drinking and eating at the izakaya, we decided to leave the bar. I don't often drink in Ueno, but this bar provides a quiet space away from the hustle and bustle, perfect for a relaxing time. The bill came out to around 9,000 yen for two people. Thank you for the meal!

I went to a bar in Ueno. After eating a lot of yakiniku at Stamina En, and drinking a lot, we moved quite a bit to get here. One person who can't drink alcohol was brought to a bar (and even made to drive, poor thing) which seems a bit pitiful... (laughs) I was already a little drunk so I don't remember much, but I ordered the recommended cocktail of the month, the "Pomegranate Cocktail". Then I had a gin-based cocktail, and despite being full, I ordered raw chocolate and olives. The pumpkin seed and wasabi snack that tingled in the nose was surprisingly addictive. I think I also had a sweet cocktail called "True Romance"? My friend ordered a French Connection, as noted on my phone. I'm sure my friend had various other drinks, but that's all I have in my notes. My memory is quite hazy, but the atmosphere at the bar was very nice. I heard the counter is made of black marble. I'd like to try drinking at the counter next time. After that, we went to another bar for another drink, then had yakiniku at Uguisudani-en, and then went out for more drinks... Of course, the next day was a terrible hangover. That was my night. - Pomegranate Cocktail (1,200 yen) - Raw Chocolate (800 yen) - Assorted Olives (800 yen) Above are the menu names and prices. (excluding tax)

At 7 o'clock, I timidly entered the empty restaurant alone. The bartender appeared at the sound of the door. Maybe I should have left at that point. I ordered the seasonal fruit cocktail, which was a mix of strawberry and champagne. Two more groups arrived, and the bartender took orders for five people all at once, instead of making them in order. The cocktail placed in front of me had strawberry jam stuck to the rim of the glass with champagne. It was not very cold and did not taste good. I only had half of it before leaving the restaurant. What exactly is a cocktail?

When you pass through the heavy door, you will see a glass-walled hallway leading to the interior of the shop. Once you open another door, you can enter the shop. Inside, you will find a serene atmosphere with attentive service, offering both traditional cocktails and seasonal fruit concoctions that are delicious. While the quality of the drinks is important, this bar also focuses on providing a comfortable and inviting environment. You can enjoy a chic and monochrome ambiance while savoring your drinks.

You can drink calmly alone. It's better to avoid Fridays and Saturdays. We had a lively conversation about fishing.

The interior of the restaurant is dim, but you can still comfortably enjoy your drink.
