Hyperlocal Tokyo

I visited this place based on a friend's recommendation and had an amazing experience at this "kakuuchi" (standing bar) - I'm completely satisfied. Located in the Kinshicho PARCO food court, this is a hidden gem of a liquor store where you can enjoy a variety of different drinks by the glass in a "kakuuchi" style. You can also purchase bottles to take home or as gifts. They even offer a plan where you can buy a bottle and drink it there. They put a lot of effort into their original products, which are craft spirits (rare Japanese distilled spirits, shochu, and awamori) aged in barrels. They retain the unique character of the original spirits while adding a mellow aroma and deep flavor that can only be found here. If you're a lover of alcohol, you should definitely try them. Of course, they also have a wide selection of craft beer, sake, and Japanese wine, including seasonal varieties and hidden gems known only to connoisseurs. Their diverse lineup is sure to offer new discoveries every time you visit. Since it's a standing bar, you can enjoy a drink or two without any pressure. The staff are all passionate about alcohol and knowledgeable, and they're happy to give you recommendations on how to drink and pair your drinks. You can also enjoy the food from other restaurants in the food court, such as meat dishes, seafood, and Italian cuisine, making this a place where you can enjoy two, three, or even four times the fun. Why not discover your own favorite at "IMADEYA SUMIDA", known as the "best kakuuchi", and enjoy the world of alcohol even more?

This is a fantastic store with a great selection of beer, sake, and wine. It's perfect for enjoying a beer at the counter, or grabbing some snacks from the adjacent food court and opening a bottle of wine. The possibilities for fun are endless! I would be so happy if there was a place like this near me. (^^)

This is a great place with a wide variety of sake to enjoy, and you can even drink standing at the counter! They have a great selection!

It's located on the first floor of Parco in the food court. While it's mainly a retail space, you can also enjoy 'kado-uchi' (standing drinking). The 'kado-uchi' space is a counter, but you can also sit and drink within the food court. You can purchase a bottle of sake from the retail section, pay a corkage fee, and enjoy it in the food court. They also have beer and some light snacks. There's a separate craft beer shop within the food court, so you can choose between the two.

This is a "kakuuchi" (standing bar) located in the food court on the first floor of Kinshicho Parco, in the back corner. You can order at the counter and then drink at the standing bar inside, or you can sit at a table in the food court, making it convenient to choose your style. I recommend the sake tasting set. It's usually 500 yen for 60ml, but the tasting set is 700 yen for two 45ml servings, so you can try a variety of sakes and then buy your favorite to take home. Many places offer three sakes for tasting, but I prefer two because you can savor each one more thoroughly. This time, I chose Harukasumi and Ona. I also had a glass of Suigei Junmai Daiginjo, which wasn't available for tasting. The snacks are also reasonably priced at 400 yen. Since it's located in a food court, the space is wide, so you can relax and enjoy your drink without worrying about people waiting. It's perfect for solo drinkers.
