After drinking a lot, I came to this place for a second round. The inside of the restaurant was filled with old men watching a baseball game. I had two highballs and some snacks while engaging in meaningless conversations to pass the time. We were told the restaurant closes at 11 pm, so I headed home. The end.

The restaurant had pictures of past Hanshin players and the owner's apron had a tiger logo, giving the impression that it was a gathering place for Hanshin fans. However, the customers were only talking about the Giants. Could it be a Giants fan's restaurant? This year, Hanshin seems to have a chance at winning. I ordered beer and the salmon and tuna on the counter. The salty taste of the salmon paired well with the beer. The tuna looked unappetizing but tasted okay. For the second round, I had a green tea highball and a sashimi platter with octopus, squid, and tuna. The tuna was similar to the previous one. The octopus from Akashi was surprisingly watery. The green tea highball had a nice sweetness to it. The old-fashioned standing bar had a cozy atmosphere. The taste was okay for a standing bar, considering the price. Hanshin had a big win yesterday with a score of 15-0. I wonder if it will be Hanshin or Yokohama this year.

I used Zelo for a quick drink meetup in Kanda. It's a standing bar with a smoking area, and they operate on a cash-only basis, which is super convenient. I had the maguro (tuna) sashimi and hoppy, which were both delicious and very affordable. I might want to come back here before another drinking session in Kanda. Thank you for the meal.

This is a standing bar near the station. I had a fish sausage for ¥270 with a draft beer. The prices are displayed on the counter, so you can choose from the items on display. The payment process is very clear. The decoration and seasoning are simple, just mayonnaise, which is nice. I feel happier spending time here than wasting time and money on fancy but mediocre food. There are smoking tables available, but you cannot drink alcohol there, so be careful. It's strictly for smoking. There are many colored papers displayed, and it seems like the owner is a Hanshin Tigers fan. The owner's genuine smile is the best service you can get. I apologize for the short stay. I might come back again. I really like this atmosphere. Thank you for the meal.

I had known about this shop for a while and had been wanting to visit. I finally had the chance to go alone, so I decided to drop by. It was a standing bar where you order at the counter, pay, and then take your seat. They would warm up certain dishes for you before calling you to pick them up. I ordered beer, nikujaga, and konnyaku, all of which had a home-cooked taste and were delicious. There were Hanshin Tigers-related goods everywhere, which got me excited. Since there was no game that day, I just enjoyed the atmosphere. There was a smoking area nearby, which was a bit bothersome due to the smell. Also, there were some unsavory characters around, so you need to be cautious. I would like to visit again next time there is a game. Knowing that I can go alone, I hope to watch a game here next time!

This is a standing bar located under the bridge in Kanda. It is situated between the south and east exits of Kanda Station. It was a Friday, but it was not crowded. Two of us entered and sat at the counter seats by the wall. I am a Tigers fan, but it was my first time here. There are photos of Tigers players on the wall. There were two foreigners drinking. Wait, is that Omari and Kio? No, they just looked similar. It's easy to mistake foreigners for Tigers players here (laughs). There is a cash register counter at the back, with various dishes wrapped in wraps lined up in front of it, ranging from ¥250 to ¥400. There are many ¥250 dishes. Tuna head and oden seem to be popular. We ordered: Red Star beer (medium bottle) for ¥500, ginger grilled dish for ¥300, two grilled eel livers for ¥350, and two yakitori skewers for ¥300. My friend paid cash for a Sapporo draft beer. The dishes were microwaved for us. It was quiet this day since it's offseason for baseball. I wonder if it gets crowded during the season. There was no rowdy behavior this day, so we could enjoy a calm atmosphere. The ginger grilled dish was slightly salty, which paired well with the Red Star beer. The eel liver was slightly bitter, complementing the beer. My friend hardly touched the dishes, so we finished eating here. We also had a lemon sour for ¥330 and a chu-hi for ¥330. Smoking is allowed at the counter seats, but not at the table seats. There is a smoking area right near the entrance on the right. It's not designated as smoking/non-smoking, but it's not a big issue whether you're a regular or not. Enjoy your time here.

After finishing the reception, we had a reflection meeting and walked along the tracks near Kanda Station to find a place with good cost performance. We found a place with a sign that seemed promising, and went in to find the atmosphere inside was quite lively, as the Hanshin Tigers were catching up to the Giants in a tied game. Despite originally planning to just have a light reflection meeting with a few drinks, we ended up getting carried away and drinking about 10 bottles of Akashika between the two of us. The food was also traditional and delicious, with a cash-on-delivery system. Thank you for the meal.

This was my first time coming to a second party alone. Inside, it was a standing bar with dishes lined up on the counter and payment was in cash. It was easy to understand and I'm used to using this kind of restaurant. The drinks were made on the spot and the clear billing was wonderful! I had kimpira gobou. It was spicy and the gobou was crunchy, similar to my mother's cooking, and delicious! I would like to eat it again while talking with my mother, but she has dementia in a facility and I can't communicate with her anymore. The walls are covered with goods, photos, and sports newspapers related to my father's favorite Hanshin Tigers. I also like them, so I was asking myself who signed them for a while. This is the first time I've found a place in Kanda where alcohol and side dishes are so cheap. I will come back again!

I had work near Mitsukoshi Mae all day. I'm exhausted. There are various challenges, and I feel drained. Even after leaving the mobile office, I'm still waiting for a phone call. I decided to walk to JR Kanda Station and head home on the JR line. However, the phone call is not coming through. The person on the other end is our sales department manager. So, I decided to pass the time around Kanda Station. Oh, what's this cool-looking place? It says "Standing Bar Akashiya." I was planning to avoid drinking today, but it's only 5:30 PM, so I thought I'd have a beer. Inside the bar, there was hand sanitizer, and each seat had a transparent film. I assumed it was a system where you order drinks and snacks at the counter, so I chose a grilled salted salmon from the food selection next to the Red Star Lager. The salmon was microwaved for me. The Red Star Lager cost 500 yen. It's not expensive, but not cheap either. In the underground shopping area of Umeda, Osaka, a large bottle costs 380 yen. The salmon was also 400 yen. It wasn't cheap either. However, it was incredibly salty, so the beer was consumed quickly. The snack had a lot of flavor. The owner and the staff were very friendly. However, by 5:30 PM, the regular customers started to gather, and I felt like an outsider. Soon after, I received a phone call from the sales department, and the matter was resolved. I was able to safely make it home. The exterior of the bar had a nostalgic charm, but the interior was filled with Tigers memorabilia and posters, as well as Tokaido references. It seemed like I thought it was Akashiya, but it's probably Meijin Akashiya.

I met up with a friend who was snacking on some food after work. We had originally planned to go to Tachinomi Oomatsu, but it was too crowded, so we ended up at this place instead. There are two entrances, and inside there is a counter where you order and pay for various snacks wrapped in wraps. The prices range from 250 yen to 400 yen. The snacks are pre-made, so they just heat them up in the microwave for you. There were only two groups of people there that day, including us. It's a typical standing bar, and even if you're not a Tigers fan, you can still enjoy it (laughs). Thank you for the meal!

I visited the standing bar "Akashiya" near Kanda Station after the first stop at "Fujiya." It was my first time there and I was surprised to find that it is a well-known hangout for Hanshin Tigers fans. The whole place was decorated in Tigers colors. My friend from Osaka was thrilled and we continued drinking with highballs. Cheers again! The carbonation is refreshing. The tuna sashimi was delicious, melting in my mouth. It made me crave some sake, and they had "Suigei" from Kochi, which paired perfectly with the fish. Sake from Shikoku goes well with seafood. Overall, it's a Tigers-themed bar with great fish and sake. They even had cans of Tigers chu-hi on display. It's not just a place for Tigers fans, but also for those who enjoy good food and drinks.

Visited again in June 2022. Enjoyed the black label cheese macasaratakako dish. The Hanshin Tigers' ranking improved as they had a decent performance in the interleague games, causing another team to fall to last place. Watching Nsta on TV. In November 2019, I stumbled upon Akashiyasan, a standing bar popular among Tigers fans, in the area under the elevated tracks near Kanda Station South Exit. Despite not being a Tigers fan, I ordered various small dishes at the counter lined up with a variety of options. The prices ranged from 250 to 400 yen, and the dishes could be reheated. The atmosphere was mainly filled with regular customers, with two older gentlemen in the back engaging in a friendly baldness debate. The first dish I ordered, the tuna dish, was a bit pricey but had a good amount of fat and was delicious. I had some leftover drinks, so I added a small dish of "napo" by paying cash. Since they were out of stock, the owner kindly made it for me. The texture of the noodles cutting through was unique to a standing bar and was enjoyable. Overall, it was a place geared towards regular customers.

Meeting in Kanda. The plan was to finish the meeting with a colleague and then go to "Karashibi Tsukemen Onikinbou" for lunch, but... decided to make a quick stop at "Tachinomi Akashiya" to check it out on the way. The sign said they opened at 4 pm, but they were already open, so we went in. The interior was filled with Hanshin Tigers memorabilia, seems like a fan's place. Started with a bottled beer. They had bottle openers on the tables and you could choose your own glass. Nice touch. The appetizers were plentiful and wrapped in plastic, starting at 250 yen per plate. We ordered grilled salmon and udo flowers. It was clear that the dishes were made with care. Delicious. I would like to visit again and take my time next time.

On November 6, 2019, I finally conquered a standing bar under the Kanda Station that I had never visited before. I entered a little after 4 pm, almost with my mouth open. There was one customer already there. I sat at the counter facing the wall with a TV. I ordered a bottled beer for 560 yen and asparagus for 250 yen. I made sure to ask for mayonnaise with the asparagus. The asparagus was cooked just right. The interior of the store was filled with items related to the Hanshin Tigers. Fans of the Tigers would surely enjoy it. Since I was there, I also ordered the Akashi octopus for 400 yen, which was delicious and chewy. I left satisfied and full. Thank you for the meal.

Tigers. And another one. Oh, there was a standing bar in such a place. "Standing Bar Akashiya" operates from 16:00 to 22:00 in a healthy manner. Orders and topics are exchanged at the handover window. Choose your favorite dish from the many small plates and have it microwaved. Each small plate has a price tag wrapped on it. "Hoppy (white)" and "Ham Cutlet". Microwaving while still wrapped enhances the oil and junk feeling. It's nice that mustard is included, and cabbage sen is laid out. You can get a refill. It's not Kinmiya, but maybe Takara. Another dish is something like "ginger pork". A strong-flavored snack style. It seems that there are many regular customers. Judging from the fact that there are Tigers-themed canned chu-hi and posters, it may be a place where such fans gather? A traditional standing bar, not a chain store. It has a genuine Showa era feel. I like it. Thank you for the meal.

Under the railway tracks at Kanda Station is a standing bar. The interior has a TV showing baseball games, creating a lively and communal atmosphere. The standing area can accommodate around 30 people. The owners, as the name suggests, are from Akashi. This is evident from the Hanshin Tigers posters and calendars in the bar. The menu consists of various dishes priced around 300 yen each. Customers can choose dishes from the counter and order drinks on the spot. Payment is made in advance. The dishes have a homemade taste, perfect to enjoy with a beer or sour while watching baseball. It's a fun place to be.

Every Tuesday, I have a private reservation at Ashitaka with my baseball-loving friends. We were introduced to a baseball-loving shop by our senior in the portable shrine. We enjoyed Red Kirishima on the rocks from Kaji 2-chome's Hoppy, along with various side dishes. It was a fun time with regular customers who love baseball, including a die-hard Hanshin Tigers fan. There were also many other fans from different teams, making it enjoyable for everyone. Thank you very much to Kobayashi-san and everyone else. Thank you so much.

The wind in the building district mercilessly beats the thinning hair. The wind is strong but at least there is no rain. It's June, the month of Minazuki, on a Friday evening after 5 o'clock near Kanda Station, known as the salaryman's town. Today, "Pitopito Seijin" and "Ichigou" have a drinking party with suppliers in Shinbashi. Taking advantage of returning from the exhibition, it's already standing alone drinking before sunset. Bad alien! "Last night, I couldn't sleep, crying~♪♪ Waiting for his call~♪♪" Tomorrow is Saturday, a day off, so "Ichigou" sings "Another Saturday" by Shimizu Shogo. But I think this song is not suitable for the current situation (laughs), unfortunately! ★Interior of the shop★ Exit the south exit of JR Kanda Station and head to the right. Walk a little along the overhead railway tracks and you will find the shop. About 1 minute walk. The interior of the shop is Tiger's themed. If you are a fan of the Hanshin Tigers, you will be happy. In the Tiger's themed interior, a woman who seems to be the wife and a man who seems to be the husband are running the shop. ★Today's alcohol★ "Lemon Sour" 330 yen ❌2 ★Today's order★ "Rakkyo" 300 yen ★Today's supplement★ A shop filled with almost regular customers, typical of standing bars. Everyone orders with proper manners. Pay at the counter and behave politely without making noise. This is the basic etiquette of a standing bar. A shop suitable for quickly having a drink for a short time. If you dawdle, you might get scolded (laughs). Thank you for the meal! I'll stop by again quickly! I have to go soon or I won't make it in time for the appointment. "Ichigou" heads towards Shinbashi without time to continue singing "Another Saturday." Pitopito, Pitopito.

I wandered from Iwamoto-cho to Kanda and found lots of shops. I chose a place where my early 20s student wouldn't usually go - a standing bar called Senbero. The drinks are cheap and they have a variety of small dishes. If this place was nearby, I would go every day. It's decorated with Hanshin Tigers memorabilia and salarymen gather to watch baseball games. I prefer places like this over fancy ones. It was a great experience! Thank you!

Before the drinking party with my seniors, I had a light snack of Hoppy and Akashi octopus and tuna sashimi. I found a booklet commemorating the 100th anniversary of Kanda Station, and upon closer inspection, I discovered that there are conversations about Kaji-ni and also about Kanda Myojin. It's a good place where you can enjoy good food and have good conversations. Thank you for the meal.
