Michi Naki Michi Guide
Nestled in the upscale backstreets of Shibuya, this unique izakaya has an entrance cleverly disguised as a refrigerator. Step inside to find a retro-cool atmosphere filled with skateboards, bikes, and hanging plants, all set to the tunes of Heisei-era J-pop.
Pro Tips
Best time to go: Visit in the evenings for the best vibe; weekdays are less crowded.
Reservations: Secure your spot through Tabelog, as hidden gems like this tend to fill up quickly.
Instagram alert: The fridge-door entrance is a perfect photo opportunity.
Eat This
American-inspired small plates: Enjoy dishes like loaded fries or BBQ skewers with creative twists.
Drink pairings: Sample shochu cocktails or local craft beers. Menus change often, so ask the staff for recommendations.
Extra Credit
After your visit, explore the nearby Shinsen area, which is full of low-key bars and yakitori joints. It’s a short walk from Shibuya Scramble (10 minutes) or Yoyogi Park. If the fridge entrance is hard to find, look for a building with a residential feel—there are no flashy signs here!
