HUB - Kyoto-Yodobashi — Restaurant in Kyoto

I’ve been to many Hubs throughout Japan and this is one of the best ones. It’s only a 5-7 minute walk from Kyoto Station.

This Hub is quite spacious and has a great vibe to it - a very relaxing and fun atmosphere. They always play good music. There is also an outside patio area, which is awesome in the summer. Inside the restaurant there is no smoking, but there’s a smoking area outside.

The staff are super friendly and accommodating. Service with a smile. They are all great.

Like all Hubs, they have Happy Hour specials till 7pm (prices range from ¥280 to ¥600 depending on what you order). The food is good here and always flavourful & tasty.

Don’t forget your Hub card. You get 5% off your order.

We went on a Sunday night, the place was lively and full of people which made a very good atmosphere for drinking and watching sports but we got a table within 5 minutes after arriving. Proper beer options like Punk IPA and Guinness within a bunch of other, cocktails and soft drinks are also available. A little bit disappointed that they charge for everything, even the nuts which usually are just laying around in pubs for anybody to grab. Anyway, this place has a very good scene for some proper drinks,...
