Yokohama Hammerhead is a shopping mall on a pier jutting into Yokohama harbour with terraces and nice views back towards the Minatomirai neighborhood.
CIQ Hall is an events venue within the mall.
The complex is built around the former Yokohama Shinko Pier crane facility — the “hammerhead” crane that gives the mall its name is a local landmark. Inside you’ll find a mix of restaurants, a craft beer hall, and boutique shops spread across two floors. The rooftop terrace offers fine views of the Minato Mirai skyline, particularly at night. It’s a short walk from the Red Brick Warehouse and easily combined with a stroll around the waterfront.
