The Peninsula Tokyo hotel's 24th-floor bar has dress-circle views across the Imperial Palace, Hibiya Park and Ginza and a generous happy hour (5pm to 8pm Sunday to Thursday), when drinks – including the bar's signature 'Tokyo Joe' cocktail (gin, ume (plum) liqueur, Drambuie and cranberry juice) – and snacks are all ¥800. There's a 15% service charge, but no cover charge.
