At the previous store, the building itself had a very good atmosphere, and some customers were reluctant to relocate.

    The drink menu includes draft beer (from 500 yen), cocktails (from 550 yen), sake (from 400 yen), wine (from 500 yen). The food menu includes pickles (300 yen), french fries (500 yen), special miso ramen (750 yen), Japanese avocado pizza (750 yen), and more.

    Mr. Nakamatsu said, “I wanted to create a place where I could enjoy drinking from the daytime. I would like to share the culture of the pub from Hirosaki. It also supports private reservations and proposes American-style standing parties and ways to enjoy using our shop. If so,"
