Places to go in Ebisu

Head downstairs at A10 for a cocktail and the selector's choice of R&B, soul, jazz and more. Original cocktails round out the music-led evening. It opens daily from 19:00 to 03:00. Look at the current menu and reservation options before going.

Head to the fifth floor near Ebisu station for Banten's twelve-seat record bar. Jazz, soul and R&B play through JBL 4344 speakers, with cocktails built around Japanese ingredients. The listed hours are 19:00–03:00. With so few seats, check its reservation page before making a plan.

Let the records take the lead at Bar Martha. The Ebisu bar asks guests to keep their voices down and leave indoor photography—including drinks and equipment—out of the evening. It opens 19:00–03:00 and doesn't take reservations. Summer and year-end breaks are exceptions to its usual daily schedule.

A peaceful tofu izakaya with tatami seating and an English menu. Tofu dumplings, steamed tofu, and a tofu tiramisu. Calm enough for the colleague who hates loud.
