If you have not been here, you missed an important page of Japanese history. This is Japan's first bar!!! The food is remarkable and the alcohol takes you back in time. I will be here many times again because it is so worth it. Much better than many of the drinking places around here, and those are already excellent hangouts. Remember to order the beer and Denki Bran (a kind of their special vermouth) pair. The sausages are excellent too. The sirloin steak will give you a sense of early Japanese-Western contact. It may well be an impression of the culinary imagination in the era the place was established. And by the way, this building is a historical landmark that is rarely advertised. Price per person: ¥2,000–3,000 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I visited Kamiya Bar out of curiosity and a love for old-school institutions. This bar has been around since 1880, so I expected some character or at least a hint of charm. Unfortunately, the vibe fell flat. As you enter, you order at a counter on the right — very cafeteria-style. It’s cash only, and they hand you a coupon to give to the staff, who bring your order to your table. Efficient, sure, but not exactly warm or inviting. I tried the famed Denki Bran, as recommended. It’s an interesting, slightly medicinal spirit — worth trying once for the novelty. I paired it with a small beer, just to refresh. While both drinks were fine, the overall experience lacked the cozy or nostalgic feel you’d hope for in a bar with this much history. There aren’t many traditional food or drink options, and the atmosphere feels more functional than friendly. If you’re into historical spots just to say you’ve been, it’s worth a quick visit. But if you’re looking for ambiance, depth, or a proper bar experience, Kamiya might leave you underwhelmed. Price per person: ¥1,000–2,000 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4
