Nihonshu Shochu & Sake Bar

Had an brilliant time here. An intimate little izakaya with a chilled out vibe, relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. If you want a night out away from douchey crowds and noise, this is the place to come. The sake/shochu selection is potent and will guarantee to have you on the floor after the 3rd bottle while the food more than exceeds the expectations. A must visit if you're a fan of anything Japanese.

This place has really chill vibes; it's small, cosy and has some nice hip hop beats playing. Perfect for a date or catch up with mates after work. The bartenders are really polite. There is an extensive list of sake, shochu, umeshu and beer. The food is fantastic. I always find myself snacking on the edamame, takoyaki and skewer platters in between drinks. There is Orion beer on tap which is quite refreshing. Shoutouts to Masa - you are a champion.

We LOVE this place, it's our secret little date-night spot. If it's just the two of you, sit in the bar rather than the restaurant - it's got so much character! Same guy serves us every time we are there, super friendly and relaxed dude who always puts on some cool underground Japanese tunes. Definitely recommend!
