- Oi-machi - Oimachi is just two minutes off the Yamanote (loop) Line from Shinagawa. Within moments we’re snaking our way down the bustling, narrow backstreets that give this neighborhood the kind of character you just don’t find in Tokyo’s large-scale entertainment districts. It won’t be long before we duck into our first tachinomi (“standing bar”) for a cold beer and some tasty local, Japanese style pub grub. If beer’s not your thing, there are other options. Also available, in case you are a little wary of some of the more ”advanced” Japanese foods, are more classically Western palate-friendly options.
Hunger staved for the moment, we embark on an educational walk, explaining (with visual aids aplenty) the vagaries of the Japanese nightlife scene. It’s a lighthearted stroll, and we have fun with it; you needn’t worry about it being raucous or off-color, and this tour is suitable for teens too, should you have them in tow. Then we eat some more.

Are you set for a cozy (maximum of 5 people) culinary journey in Tokyo, which offers you a far richer experience than what you’d get in Shinjuku or Shibuya? Join us and turn your back on the mass-produced tourist routes, immersing yourself instead in the local evening relaxation spots, devoid of swarms of tourists. Throughout our roughly 3-hour rendezvous, we’ll be hopping between three different ‘tachinomi’ or standing bar eateries, quite akin to bustling tapas venues. Fear not, there will be a substantial amount of food, in case the ‘bar’ reference leads you astray.
Our tachinomi tour is spread over two separate neighborhoods, with a quick 6 minute train transition between them. Complimenting the tachinomi adventure is a subtly anthropological one, offering a variety of cultural attractions and themes, from nocturnal activities to mundane grocery trips and more. With food, three beverages, and train fees all inclusive, your wallet will remain untouched during this worry-free evening.
