Bar B & F

Shiso-inspired Cocktail

One of my most favorite bar and it is my partner’s favorite bar ever. We ended up going for my partner’s birthday as well as bringing along friends here. B&F bar is a sister bar of the famous Bar Benfiddich in Shinjuku, Tokyo.

Cherry Blossom Gin Sour

Myoga-inspired Cocktail

It’s a small bar right below Bar Benfiddich and we just happen to stumble into it since the Bar Benfiddich was closed that day. We walked in not knowing what to expect. It is a speakeasy bar where you tell them any kind of ingredients you want, and they will concoct something you will absolutely love. They specialize in Japanese-inspired flavors so feel free to tell them ingredients like yuzu, shiso, cherry blossom, etc. And any kind of Japanese liquor as well. :) As seen below my favorite was what I believe was called the cherry blossom gin sour.

Other amazing cocktails

The staff have been amazing as well and know how to entertain you. You might meet some great people here, which I also really enjoyed.

If you are on the hunt for a fantastic list of cool bars to check out in Tokyo, I highly recommend adding this incredible selection to your itinerary! You definitely won't be disappointed by the unique experiences and delightful cocktails that await you here!

Note: I highly recommend getting there early before it gets crowded.

You can make reservations, but we never had to since we went early.
