Ginza is known as the district with the highest density of bars in the world. Check out GINZA magazine’s guide to the best bars—both legendary and new—where you can experience the art of Japanese bartending.
The bars highlighted in this feature
▶ Peter bar, Peninsula hotel
The Peninsula Hotels are renowned for embracing the local culture of their locations. In Tokyo, under the theme "Journey of Japan," our bartenders travel across the country to source local ingredients for their signature creations. By adding unique twists to classic recipes, these cocktails allow guests to rediscover the charms of Japan. Many offerings can be served non-alcoholic, making them a perfect choice for any time of day.
▶Royal bar, Palace hotel
Established in 1961, Royal Bar still preserves the original recipes of its first chief bartender, Kiyoshi Imai—the legendary "Mr. Martini." His signature Martini, celebrated for its striking strength and exquisite chill, continues to captivate guests. Yet, the bar’s core remains its founding policy: hospitality tailored to the individual.
"To create a softer impression, we can use a Japanese gin crafted with soft water. After trying the original, we can work together to find your preferred flavor profile," says the current chief bartender, Manabu Otake. Here, you can embark on an exploration of classic cocktails while experiencing the exceptional hospitality only a premier hotel bar can provide.
