Beer Komachi

Southern Higashiyama


Located in the Furokawa-chō covered shopping arcade close to Higashiyama Station, this tiny casual bar is dedicated to promoting Japanese craft beer. There are usually seven Japanese beers on tap, which rotate on an almost daily basis. There's a great bar-food menu and a list of sake if you're not much of a beer drinker.
