The Grafton Beer Pub & Restaurant Announces Golden Week Hours, Opens at 6 p.m. on 5/1
The Grafton Beer Pub & Restaurant, a beer pub in Gotanda, has posted its Golden Week business hours on Instagram. From May 1 through 6, opening hours vary by day, and the schedule also includes announcements for soccer broadcasts.
Hop BroThe Grafton Beer Pub & Restaurant, tucked away underground in Gotanda, has posted its Golden Week hours. It’s a place where you can take your time enjoying pub food and craft beer, but the hours change from day to day during the holiday break.
MugiWait, the hours are different every day!? That’s the kind of thing where you show up on a day off and end up standing in front of the door thinking, "It’s closed today!?"
Hop BroThat’s why this announcement is really practical. Friday, May 1 is 18:00-2:00, Saturday, May 2 is 14:00-24:00, Sunday, May 3 is closed, Monday, May 4 and Tuesday, May 5 are 16:00-24:00, and Wednesday, May 6 is 14:00-24:00. That’s the Golden Week business schedule.
MugiOhhh! So on the days that open at 2 p.m., you can drink from afternoon until night? That sounds like the correct holiday plan, doesn't it?
Hop BroExactly. And on May 2 and May 6, when they open at 14:00, they note that it’ll be one-person staffing until 16:00. In other words, it’s a low-staff operating window, so it helps the shop if you order in one go, and it lets you drink more smoothly too.
MugiOne-person operation sounds intense, but is solo staffing really that hard? One person handling glasses, food, and the live broadcast... that’s pure endurance!
Hop BroIt gets pretty busy. That’s exactly why this place is suited to people who want to relax and drink in an Irish pub-style wood interior. Being underground also gives it a nice feeling of being separated from the holiday bustle outside.
MugiWow, and you can watch matches there too!? On Saturday, May 2 it’s Jubilo Iwata vs Iwaki FC, and on Wednesday, May 6 it’s Ventforet Kofu vs Jubilo Iwata. You can cheer with a beer in hand!
Hop BroExactly. Since they’re also posting soccer broadcast details, it really comes across as a place that’s good for watching sports, not just drinking. That “gather and watch together” atmosphere is part of what makes pubs so appealing.
MugiBut the article says there are no beer names listed! So is this the kind of place where you decide what to drink after you get there? That actually makes it more exciting!
Hop BroExactly. This time the focus is on checking the hours rather than introducing specific brews, but as pre-holiday prep it’s definitely useful. A drink in Gotanda while watching a match? That’s the kind of place that makes you want to stop in.
MugiYeah, a drink while watching a match sounds amazing! During Golden Week, if we check the hours early and go together, I bet we’d end up staying a long time!
The Grafton Beer Pub & Restaurant, located underground in Nishi-Gotanda, Tokyo, announced its Golden Week business schedule on Instagram. The post reflects the kind of place it is: a wood-toned space that evokes an Irish pub, where guests can enjoy craft beer and pub food, along with sports viewing in mind.
The hours listed in the post are: Friday, May 1, 18:00-2:00; Saturday, May 2, 14:00-24:00; Sunday, May 3, closed; Monday, May 4, and Tuesday, May 5, 16:00-24:00; and Wednesday, May 6, 14:00-24:00. For the days that open at 14:00, the post notes that the pub will be staffed by only one person until 16:00, making it a practical guide that shows the shop’s setup even during the busy holiday period.
Match information is also included in the image: Saturday, May 2 features "Jubilo Iwata vs Iwaki FC," and Wednesday, May 6 features "Ventforet Kofu vs Jubilo Iwata." The Grafton is a beer pub on the basement floor within walking distance of the west exit of Gotanda Station, and it is an easy place to stop by when you want to watch a game while drinking beer in a relaxed setting. Although this post does not mention any beer names, it is more than useful as a check of the business hours before stopping in during the holiday period.
