I wandered into Hub on a Saturday night, and I was not disappointed. We were able to snag a table, which is sometimes a difficult feat. The mixed drinks were all excellent, and while a tad expensive (...
This place is pretty close to one of the Temple University buildings so it is frequented by a quite a few students. But the place is nice, the staff is friendly, and the imported beers are cold. Oh,...
This was a nice place to go for happy hour. I went on a Monday afternoon, so it was pretty empty, which was kind of nice. I got a nice cocktail (Malibu Pineapple) with a piping hot order of fries for ...
British pubs / Irish pubs, Sports Bars ( Shimbashi )
The main courses here are excellent value at lunch and the service is very, very good. The Town Cryer is definitely worth checking out if you're in this area any time between 11:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
I tried onion rings to start and had roast beef for my main. Both were good.
The orange juice I had was excellent (fresh squeezed, if I recall correctly), but as with everywhere in Tokyo, it was v...
I certainly wouldn't classify PBE as a pub of any sort and certainly not anything connected to the British Isles, it is a stylish little place with great cocktails and some food, that's open very late...
British pubs / Irish pubs, Sports Bars ( Tameikesanno )
The cod fillet in my fish and chips was excellent. If only this place weren't so bloody dead all the time. Where are the patrons? I'd like this place to be hopping.
Also, club/dance/techno music h...
It's your basic pub with a ton more options for fans of hard liquor. The food is pretty typical of most bars in Japan...both pub food and izakaya food. The staff is friendly and it usually isn't cro...
Entering this bar is like leaving Tokyo and briefly visiting England. It shows live football games, which thus draws the British crowd. I went during one such football game so it was quite crowded and...
The Hub is a Pub franchise in Japan. There are hubs at pretty much every major district in Tokyo and there are even a few out in the wilds of Osaka and Kobe. They make good fish and chips, serve bee...
British pubs / Irish pubs, Sports Bars ( Shibuya )
I've been here on two occasions: once, to end a night of karaoke and drinking, and again to have a pint and British fare with my English future hubby. Most brews are 1,000yen per pint. When I went lat...
The roast beef here is not bad, even if the portion is a little small for Westerners. If you see roast beef on special at lunch and the price seems alright, you should check it out.
British pubs / Irish pubs, Sports Bars ( Roppongi )
a fair mix of people, i think, though mostly not Japanese. There was a live show when I went so that was fun (they were playing some Irish jigs). Doesn't seem much to say; I didn't particularly like t...
British pubs / Irish pubs, Sports Bars ( Roppongi )
Slightly off the beaten path in Roppongi and next to another large bar, lies Hobgoblin. Hobgoblin looks and feels like a sports bar straight from Britain. The inside has a very clean wood look and the...
British pubs / Irish pubs, Live Bars/Jazz Bars ( Tameikesanno )
Try the fish and chips, the chicken and chips or (if you're so inclined) the breakfast. Be warned, however, that on a recent visit it seemed that they quality of the chicken had plummeted; where once...
Beer, beer, and more beer. That and a little booze. It's the real reason you go to a pub in the first place, and as long as you don't expect anything stellar you won't be disappointed. The staff is...
British pubs / Irish pubs, Live Bars/Jazz Bars ( Shinjuku )
Great beers. Great location. You might also enjoy looking at a clientele that consists mostly of Gaijin deadbeats, scam-artists, bums, ex-cons, fugitives, scruffy bearded slackers, English teachers (s...
British pubs / Irish pubs, Sports Bars ( Ikebukuro )
A favorite among the foreigner community of Ikebukuro, this basement bar offers a small but quality selection of beers, standard bar fare food (including tortilla chips and salsa for more than you wou...
I have dined here twice. Both times, I tried the fish and chips. It was good, but not excellent.
All in all, it's a serviceable pub if you're in the area, but if you prefer spacious and nice surr...
