Fun gay bar with cheerful, quick service. Most of the buzz was outside, drinking on the pavement. Welcoming to tourists - very diverse international crowd

Went here on a whim and loved that they had an open stage and played music for each demographic. We dances and rapped to our hip-hop songs for about 45 minutes then it switch to Latin and we just got off the stage to allow them their time. It was actually perfect. Only wish it was an actual DJ mixing the songs together so the entire song will not play.

Be careful going here at night. I had my wallet in a small pocket on my backpack and it was stolen. There was suddenly a huge crowd that shoved my friends and I together, I felt something on my backpack, when I pulled my backpack in front of me, the pocket was unzipped and the wallet was gone. I tried to ask the bartender and was quickly dismissed. I reported it to the police and they said this area is dangerous and there are no cameras in this bar. I have never had this kind of insane, disappointing experience in Japan in my many years here.

This bar was a hidden gem! The atmosphere was cozy and stylish, with great music and even better drinks. The bartender was super friendly and made one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had. They had a great selection of Japanese whisky too. A perfect spot for a chill night out—highly recommend!

A man sitting in the corner by the toilets was on a video call to somebody, showing men entering, urinating, and exiting the toilets (there are no doors, and a wide doorway to the toilets). This man looked to be in his 50s and was wearing a red hoodie. Once I realised this man has his camera (selfie camera with his back to the toilets) facing the toilets and on a video call to somebody, I asked the man why he was videoing people using the toilet. He was adamant that it was not true and I made it up. I saw he was on a video call for 37 minutes sitting outside the toilets. I informed bar staff who were very apologetic and said they had to speak to the manager before any further action could be taken. The manager said that as he was not on a call when he went to speak to him, and they would let him stay in the bar. The manager, despite being told this person had violated privacy of countless people over the space of the 37 minute video call, decided to let this person stay seated in the bar, in the same seat. When I asked for an explanation as to why this was, he stated “he wasn’t on a call when I went over so it’s okay”. If somebody acts inappropriately while somebody is not looking, that does NOT mean that it didn’t happen. Disgusting. Do not come to this bar. Absolutely awful behaviour was shown.
