VERTERE Taproom — Restaurant in Tokyo

There were not much choice on the day that we visited. This was the only pub that was open at the time.

We waited for the pub to open and entered second, a few minutes after we've settled down at the corner table, the pub owner asked us to move, so that they could accommodate another group which had just turned up. The round table we were given were short and uncomfortable, I ended up having to sit sideways and had my meal awkwardly.

They have a reasonable amount of food options on the menu, mostly Japanese-western style. The food tasted ok, but they were heavily adapted for the Japanese taste, so you might not be getting what you had hoped for. For example their Buffalo wings were in fact Chicken wings in sweet-chilli sauce with a dab of vinegar.

The food is also quite expensive, depends on what you order it might set you back about 2000...

My husband and I travel to various prefectures and visit various restaurants here in Japan but this was "the only bad experience" we had for being a non-Japanese in Japan.

Food was served to everyone who came to the restaurant after us. We even visited the counter twice to check on our order and were assured food is on its way. After about 30-40 minutes, we decided to leave the place and that's when the staff visited our table to apologize. But their intentions were still made clear and evident. The apology also seemed unreal. Anyway, we hope the staff knows what they did and hopefully reflect on this incident and treat every customer equally. Although we won't ever visit this...

Favorite micro brewery in Japan! Everything they make is incredible. If you're a craft beer lover, then this place is a must-visit. The brewery gets really crowded, especially on sunny days as there is outdoor seating in their garden/terrace. You can also purchase their cans to go at their can shop near the station.

In terms of food, they mostly have meat and fried options, not a lot to choose from for vegetarians. The staff is very friendly and a few of them are English speakers.

Great lunch spot for relaxing and hanging out with friends or after...
