Mejiro Tanakaya is quite possibly the best liquor shop in Tokyo.
It’s not the biggest or the cheapest, but it’s packed with absolute gems—craft beer, wines, and whiskies you won’t find anywhere else.
While the prices are high, Tanakaya isn’t price gouging. Most of the brands are just super rare and hard to get in Japan, so the prices are justified.
Suggested Activity
Get Tickets To the Samurai Restaurant in Shinjuku (Up to 30% Off)
Experience one of the craziest, most colorful places in Tokyo — the all-new Samurai Restaurant, from the creators of the Robot Restaurant. Get your tickets and sit back for a wild show of lasers, lights, samurai, dancers and other uniquely Japanese weirdness.
If you’re even a little interested in your booze, you’ll have trouble leaving Tanakaya without purchasing something special.
