The area
Address
Neighborhood: Shimogyo-ku
Shimogyo-ku is centered around the busy train hub, Kyoto Station. A nexus for commerce, shopping, dining, and hotels, the Shimogyo-ku area is infused with tourists and local business travelers, making it a competitive location for ever-new commercial structures. The shops and cafes here are chic and trendy, as a result, with many recognizable chains. Commuters flood the Shimogyo-ku area twice a day, and with Kyoto Station itself being a modern mega-complex and an architectural marvel, this neighborhood is one of the most contemporary and energetic areas that the city has to offer. Buildings here look futuristic, and huge department stores, shopping arcades, and public meeting spaces provide every possible convenience. It is also nearly the only place in Kyoto where rooftop dining and socializing is available, completing its modern tone.

Great little Bar.
Apr 2017 • Solo
It is across the Yadoya Hiraiwa where I stayed at. I didn't figured out that it was a bar, until I came home at dark on my third day in Kyoto, and saw the counter, and 3 guests sitting at it. The owner is a musician, that loves Rock music.He has hundreds of records, and Guitars are on the wall.He doesn't speak English, but its enough to order your beer, or whisky.I would say the bar fits about 8 people, so its very small.But if you like rock music, than its a great place.

So much fun!

Amazing small bar in a quiet part of Kyoto, away from the city center. Stumbled upon it on the way home and had a great evening. Fun music and the owner and his friends were such good hosts for the night.
