NIHONBASHI BREWERY. Ningyocho is a craft beer specialty shop located within walking distance of multiple train lines. An Instagram post showed a visitor enjoying menu item No. 11 in an M size for 737 yen, and the approachable price range also stands out for everyday use. The interior is stylish, making it suitable not only for dates, but also for after-work meals with colleagues and group gatherings.

According to the official website, the shop always offers 13 craft beers, including the "NIHONBASHI IPA," devised for Japan by Trevor Bress, the brewmaster of HUB, an eco-brewery in Portland, USA. Seasonal labels and limited-time offerings are rotated in as they come, so beer lovers can try a different glass each time they visit.

The food items featured in the post were the "melting potato salad," "prosciutto Bismarck," and "house-made pudding," all of which left a strong impression. In addition, the menu includes dishes that pair well with beer, such as 10-month aged prosciutto with burrata cheese, bistecca made with crossbred beef rump, tartare of avocado and plenty of snow crab, and carpaccio from Misaki fishing port. While craft beer is the star, the selection naturally connects appetizers, pizza, meat dishes, and dessert, making it easy to build a full meal around. Since it is a popular spot, it is probably best to plan on making a web reservation in advance.
