"In a craft‑beer‑loving mountain town, this taproom pours 10 beers on draft and pairs them with bar staples like burgers, fish and chips, and chili." - Mae Hamilton

I’d definitely go here for drinks - they have a great selection of craft beers and it’s a really cool bar playing snowboard movies. Pints are around 1,200 yen - close or European prices - but I think they’re worth it.
I don’t think I’d eat here again however. I ordered the parmy and thought it was a little disappointing. I know it’s hard sourcing European cheese in Japan but the cheese on top wasn’t very good. That being said, it was a massive portion size, super filling and the chips were super good! Oh and it seems to get very busy so I’d recommend booking a table in advance if you have a large group.

Range of beers was good, reasonably priced. Enjoyed an El Matador burger. Friendly staff and a chilled vibe making for an enjoyable evening. Would return.

Cozy taproom with good vibes. Had a couple beers and gin and tonics with some fries for a mid afternoon snack. Fries were pretty bland, but drinks were good and prices reasonable. Service was great, several folks spoke English and Japanese and we were able to be seated right away. It picked up towards dinner time. Would definitely come back for a beer or two!

Visited a few times last week with husband. A great range of real ales, most a fairly strong % but tasty. Menu did not have a large range of options however everything we tried was fantastic!
The chicken Parmy was huge and amazing !
Great views of the landscape and they sold handmade earrings too. Would recommend.

If you are looking for a pub with food, great craft beers, and Mountain View’s and outdoor seating, this is your spot. It has a kids play section and in green season and trampoline, swings, and outdoor games. Probably the best view spot for a beer and a meal in Hakuba.

Great if you drink beer. Did not appear to be other options. Food was delicious! Nice to have some beef. Parmigiana was delish. Kids options available.

Lively craft beer bar with an excellent range on tap. Staff were fun. Vibrant crowd without being obnoxious. A great choice for a few pints of you're in the area.
