DRINKING
SHIBUYA’S NOMBEI YOKOCHO (Drunkard’s Alley)
Nonbei Yokocho is a district of tiny bars and restaurants next to the train tracks near hachiko.
The alleys look like Tokyo before WWII with tiny buildings packed together side-by-side.
Restaurants and bars here may only have three or four seats but people move around, spill
onto the pavement and make it work!
There’s definitely a unique charm to this place. It’s actually where I’ve met some of my best friends
in Tokyo over the years. There’s a tiny curry house in one of the dens – you’ll know it
by the heavenly smell wafting down the alley!
