Omoide Yokocho
A drinking alley in Shinjuku that retains the atmosphere of the Showa era. In the back alleys thick with smoke from yakitori and motsuyaki, enjoy a traditional drink.
A historic alley located right next to JR Shinjuku Station's West Exit, continuing from the post-war black market. Approximately 80 small food and drink establishments are crammed together, where you can enjoy yakitori, motsuyaki, horumon, ramen, and other everyday cuisine. The true essence is sitting at narrow counters, shoulder-to-shoulder with the person next to you. Bustling from evening to late night, it attracts a diverse clientele from salarymen to foreign tourists. The retro atmosphere and vibrant space make it a hidden gem of Shinjuku.
