(This was originally part of a big Daimon/Hamamatsucho area round up post until I decided to split it in order for the tags to work better. Here are part 1, part 2 and part 3) Finally, Soul Bird. Probably the most conventionally styled of all of these places (see the previous parts), Soul Bird is…
(This was originally two places on one post. It has now been split. Part 2 is here) Today, a brief excursion a little way out of Tokyo into Yamanashi, the home of Outsider brewing. We were in Kofu for one night only for football but fortunately that seems to be enough time to deal with…
This post was originally part of one Iidabashi round up post before I decided to split all of these joint posts. Check out the other part here. Post by James This pub is located on a side street a little way up Waseda-dori (you pass Craft Beer Server Land on the way). The Royal Scotsman…
Post by Iain According to the blurb on the menu, “gachimaya” means the same as kuishimbo (big eater/gutsy pig) in Okinawan dialect and given the quality of the food in this restaurant it’s tempting to take that as a challenge and try to live up to the name.

This place has moved since it was added to the blog. The write up below is for the old place and will be updated when I manage to visit the new place. The address and map have been updated. I’m back. Firstly I would like to thank the people who have offered to help me…
Post by MothyHikawa Brewery is a small place, but in an area that doesn’t have much in the way of craft beer. It’s located less than a ten minute walk from Omiya Station near the Hikawa Shrine and Omiya Park. The interior prominently features, you guessed it, wood. It has counter seating for 15 and…
