Night life in Golden Gai alley, Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan
Hair of the Dogs is an amazing little punk rock bar in Golden Gai. Super nice and friendly owner and bartender who speak English and encourage you to choose music. Golden Gai is a network of around 200 teeny-tiny bars (each sits about 8 people) tucked into a maze of about six thin alleys.
A network of alleyways of small bars and eateries serving traditional snacks.
Lots of tiny micro-bars, some with only 4 or 5 places ! #bvsjapan #TroveOnTuesday #LikeALocal
