Bar Track

The most unique listening bar I’ve ever been to. The sound system is extraordinary - truly world-class. Unlike typical Japanese service, the staff here are distant and do the bare minimum. It’s clear they don’t want tourists, and honestly, I hope it stays that way. It adds to the authenticity and charm. Drinks are basic. No crazy cocktails, and that’s exactly right for this place. Smoking is allowed inside - again, it fits. In terms of music, it's just the best songs ever made. Radiohead, Bowie, Queen, Sting (nothing trendy, just timeless).

It’s true - guests are not permitted to talk above a whisper (which is rather strange considering the lighting is unpleasantly bright, like a school gymnasium). FYI, foreigners are sometimes asked to leave for talking. Middle-aged, male staff only. Generally, sulky and impolite. Most of the time they stand around shaving ice trying to be cool. Regulars equally unfriendly. Sound system works fine, but staff only play typically eclectic and/or unsuitable music whilst flatly refusing all suggestions and requests. Can’t say this adds anything to the ambience described above. Drinks are average, but overly-priced compared to similar establishments in the area. There is no food other than some stale nuts and banana chips in large communal jars. Lots of cigarette smoke and dirty ashtrays. In summary, if you like drinking overpriced alcohol in a bright room amid a thick cloud of smoke, rudely poured by miserable men, whilst listening to crap music and not talking to anyone, then I would highly recommend this place to you.

don‘t get put off by the reviews, had a v great experience here! great selection of music played via excellent speakers // only downside: smoking is allowed here

Excellent sound system and great drinks, staff was super friendly too. We had to come back for a second round of drinks after eating. Do not be fooled by the old dumb reviews. This place was fantastic, no one will shush you unless you're actually being loud. Lots of older regulars there too, which is always a good sign. If you're looking for a spot to talk with a group of friends just go to a regular bar. This place is for enjoying music and having a nice quiet conversation. 10/10!!!

Great bar! Especially if you love good music brought to you by a serious dj who knows his vinyls. None of their cocktails are on the menu, let them tell you what’s good. Not cheap and smoking is allowed inside — something to keep in mind. But totally worth the experience! We stayed until they closed up, would recommend this to anyone who wants an unexpected night out in Tokyo

Amazing atmosphere for Music/Vinyl lovers. Hi end sound system and drink options. Limited English is spoken but not needed. This is a specialty bar for listening to vinyl. Do not go in there with a large group or making lots of noise even if the locals do/are. You will be called out. I went single and only talked to the Dj.

My ears have never heard such quality sounds, I felt like a baby discovering music for the first time. The negative reviews are for smoking, being asked to be quiet, racist staff... I smoke, so that's a bonus for me. When people are loud, it's a distraction from the music. I prefer a quiet place when listening to good music instead of a rowdy bar where people are yelling. The staff were GREAT to me, I made an attempt to speak Japanese, and they appreciated my efforts. I drank Japanese whiskey per the bartenders recommendations, and the snacks were classic Japanese snacks that I really enjoyed. You have to understand this place is unique. It's unlike most bars and offers something special. If you're looking for cheap beers, rowdy drunk people, and Top 40 Pop music - this place isn't for you.

very chic!! no photos allowed, my friend and I had some really good talks in here without the distraction of phones. music was excellent, drinks were strong, and free snacks were fun
