While the clientele at Ginza’s 300 Bar is usually a 50/50 split between nearby office workers looking for a cheap drink and international patrons, its focus is very much international.
If you’re looking for somewhere laid back to start your night, or a place to wind down after visiting one of Shibuya’s larger clubs, Beat Cafe is always there and the crowd is always friendly. There’s no novelty here it’s just a well-worn dive bar with reasonably-priced drinks, a love for indie rock and extended opening hours. This cozy, cavernous hangout has long been known as a favorite among international residents, Tokyo-born locals and those just passing through.
