Exploring Yanesen can be thirsty work so thank heavens for this craft-beer bar, a cosy place with some outdoor seating. It's part of a charming complex of old wooden buildings that also houses a bakery-cafe, a bistro and an events space. It has several brews on tap, including a Yanaka lager (¥970) that's only available here.
