01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Settling into a counter seat with a thoughtful small plate and a drink in hand is what Akatsuki Bar does best. The menu features a broad selection of warm dishes and tapas that pair effortlessly with wine or beer. Highlights include distinctive, drink-friendly choices such as shiitake mushrooms enriched with savoury gorgonzola, and chicken gizzard and mushroom ajillo, served bubbling hot and ideal for dipping bread.

For lighter grazing, the tapas assortment, Akatsuki's house potato salad, and pickled cherry tomatoes with quail eggs make dependable cold starters. Those arriving with a hearty appetite can turn to satisfying mains like Mattsun's hamburg steak, a fragrant spiced curry, or the chef's whim toasted sandwich.

Just a short walk from Katsura Station and open from 19:00 to 3:00 the following morning, the bar makes an easy stop for a late drink on the way home from work. The casual, counter-centred room is comfortable for solo visitors, offering a relaxed perch to wind down the night at your own pace over cocktails or spirits.
