Brewdog
Bar, Japanese
Brewdog is a Scottish craft beer brewery in Roppongi that constantly attracts guests thanks to their wide selection of beer. With a welcoming environment, their bilingual and knowledgeable staff are quick to help guests pick out the perfect pint. The menu features an array of traditional pub food including chicken wings and house-made potato crisps, as well as Japanese-style foods like wasabi-flavoured potato salad.
Agave

Agave touts itself as being the world’s largest tequila and mezcal bar with over 550 kinds of liquor stocked. Situated underground in a dimly lit venue with orange lighting, this Mexican lounge bar is a great escape from the rowdy parts of Roppongi.

The Public Six
Bar, American
This American-style sports bar hosts many sports screenings throughout the year with their big TV screen and advanced sound system.

Step into the place and enjoy a range of beverages including local craft beer, wine, sake and cocktails.
Library Lounge THESE
Bar, Japanese
Nestled in a residential area of Roppongi is THESE, a small library-themed cocktail bar with no menu. Instead, the staff brings you a basket filled with seasonal fruits where you select up to two types of fruits and liquor of your choice. Based on your chosen items, they’ll create delicious and thirst-quenching cocktails that you’re able to enjoy in a dimly lit environment. Despite being a bar, THESE is fairly quiet and has the pleasant and relaxing ambience of a library.
