TOKYO | Karakuri Craft Beer & Oden & Sake is a small bar in Kanda that focuses on, as the name suggests, craft beer, oden, and sake. Located in a basement off a side street, Karakuri is a bit hard to find but it’s well worth seeking out. The welcoming space is warming and intimate, with lots of concrete and wood, and seating for 35 people. Music is an eclectic mixture of 90s and 2000s rock, hip-hop and R&B, played at a volume that doesn’t drown out conversation.

On tap you’ll find nine local and international beers. Not the largest craft beer selection in town, but all quality, including rare international releases you don’t often find in Japan. For fans of sake it’s an equally impressive small but quality list. Tasters of both beer and sake are on offer – you can choose any three. If you don’t want either, there’s also kombucha, wine, cocktails and spirits, including some fantastic whiskeys.

The great beer was what initially drew us to Karakuri, but the food here is outstanding too. In fact it’s that tasty that even if you’re not a fan or beer or sake, it’s worth checking out. There’s the oden, a one-pot dish filled with a light, dashi broth and ingredients like boiled eggs, daikon, konjac, and processed fishcake. When we visited was asked our waiter to bring out an assortment of whatever he thought we should try, and proceeded to enjoy a series of izakaya style dishes, along with some oden.

From cold octopus to fried sweet corn, bonito and mizuna salad to half egg and daikon oden, we couldn’t fault a thing.
