Beer Club Popeye Mài Jiǔ Jù Lè Bù ポパイ

This place serves a wide range of draft beer, and has a great happy hour, free food with the purchase of a beer. It gets busy, so you may have to stand and drink/eat, but you will be offered a table as soon as one comes available. They also have a point system, and you can earn half off a beer.

Apparently this is the first craft beer joint in Tokyo, I was lucky to have time to visit while on a trip recently. Was quite easy to get to given the train stop is a few blocks away. Huge selection of beers, 70 on tap! When ordering during happy hour we looked for beers with a crown on the menu that indicated the beer came with a small plate of food. I will say the food was not exciting, more like a snack and was good to make sure we did not get too tipsy with all the beers we tried. Literally all types of brews were represented. For folks from Europe or America, the beers come in smaller sizes so be aware, not pints. Since one of our party was a local he had ‘membership’ to their club, which I understand is free but did entitle him to a beer tower which we enjoyed. Fun stop!

Come for the beer, not so much for the food. With 70 draft selections available, this is a prime location to drink some of the more unique brews in Japan. During their happy hour specials, you can get select beers with a free food item (small portion sizes of some of their menu items). We tried the wings and pork ribs and unfortunately for the price, they were just ok. The beer alone and their happy hour specials though are reason to keep coming back.

Great variety of beer on tap. Fantastic bar food. We would try to hit this place up during happy hour. I can't wait to go back!

The atmosphere is amazing!! Their happy hour is great!! If you want to Japanese craft beer, you will love this place! As a American, my friends and I stood out like a sour thumb but the locals were very welcoming and nice!
