About

Located in the heart of Shinjuku Ni-chome, 'Teppan Onna Sakaba Dorobune' is a hidden, no-cover-charge bar where you can also enjoy a great meal. The interior features a friendly atmosphere centered around counter seating, where locals and tourists alike—whether solo or in groups—can relax and socialize. As the name suggests, their teppan (iron griddle) dishes are their pride, and despite being a bar, their authentic food menu is highly acclaimed. While it may be a bit hard to find for first-timers, look for the pink door at the top of the stairs inside the apartment complex grounds. The staff is friendly and accommodating to those who aren't fluent in Japanese, making it a welcoming spot where international travelers can feel at ease. It is the perfect community bar for those looking to spend a relaxing time with a drink in hand.
