HIGHBALL BAR 新橋1923

Specialized in Highball, it was really easy place to stay. Their Hamkatsu and Spaghetti were also must-have food with Highball.

If you haven't tried a whisky highball, you must! The selection here is amazing. Staff speak sufficient english for ordering & a few general questions about the whisky. There is a 500Yen cover charge per person to cover nuts & rice snacks (super tasty). Mostly locals enjoying the bar so not to...o touristy. Highly recommend visiting here.

This is really a specialist whisky bar rather than a normal bar for a quick beer or two, even though they so serve (Suntory) beer. This is particularly so as there is a 500-yen per person cover charge, which made our single beer each quite expensive! It’s true that the cover charge include helping y...ourself to nuts and small biscuit snacks, but if you are simply looking for a place to sit for a drink or two before moving on then it’s not really worth it. It may suit those who go in for the evening to sample various brands of whisky/whiskey, but not if you just want a couple of beers. My rating is for a normal bar rather than a specialist bar (for which it would doubtless rate higher if that’s what’s required).

We stumbled upon this whiskey bar tucked away between restaurants and were delighted with the quality of drinks, and the interesting "bar food" on offer. Being a whiskey bar, most of the concentration of drinks are Japanese and American whiskey, but there are other options if they don't take your f...ancy. There is a cover charge, which includes all the peanuts and chilli snacks you can eat, but do order from the menu - I love that you can get tomato salad, potato salad and fries (that aren't just called "fries") in a place like this to soak up the alcohol. I had a ginger mojito, which consisted of Canadian whiskey and fresh ginger (and other unidentified but delicious ingredients) and my friend's gin and tonic was just as good, and they were decent sized drinks too. Staff were friendly and spoke enough English for us. A bonus was they played an interesting mix of rock n roll music at just the right sound level.
