Japanese people often use bars for the second time or later.
When Japanese people go out for drinks, or so-called “going out for drinks”, they usually meet up first and then go to a place where they can enjoy food and drinks.
“Izakaya” etc… There are other places like Yakiniku restaurants where you can fill your stomach and enjoy alcohol.
Furthermore, these
restaurants also have plans called “all-you-can-drink” where you can drink as much beer or whiskey as you want for a certain period of time, so if you like alcohol, you have to drink as much as you can during the limited time. I can.
The best time to use the bar is after 9pm as there are a lot of people there.
A recommended way to enjoy the bar is to take advantage of the fact that the number of customers increases after 9:00 pm and go early so you can enjoy the bar at a bargain price.
You can enjoy the bar at a great price by taking advantage of the “Happy Hour” plan, which is limited to the opening hours.
About bar types and atmosphere by Osaka Minami area
There are many bars in the downtown area of Minami. There are various types of bars where you can spend time drinking, and the atmosphere of the bar can be categorized to some extent depending on the area. We will introduce the types of bars in each Minami area based on local perspective.
[By location in Osaka Minami area] There are many lively bars in the Amerikamura-Higashi-Shinsaibashi area
Amerikamura, which is located near Shinsaibashi, is sometimes called a youth town, so there are many bars with a lively and lively atmosphere and bars with a noisy atmosphere. During Halloween, Sankaku Park in Amerikamura is really crowded.
Then there is the Higashi-Shinsaibashi area across Midosuji, a main thoroughfare that runs north-south from Umeda to Namba. There are many bars crowded in buildings in alleys and basements of buildings just off the main street where many brand shops are lined up.
[By location in Osaka Minami area] There are many bars with strong concepts in the Sennichimae to Ura-Namba areas.
The Sennichimae area is located south of Namba Station, where the department store Takashimaya is located. This is where the comedy theater “Yoshimoto Shinkigeki,” which can be called Osaka’s specialty, is the birthplace of Osaka’s traditional comedy culture. Further down the back street from the Sennichimae area is an area called “Ura Namba.” There are many bars with special and unusual concepts in a building ([Misono Building]) that retains the atmosphere of good old Japan.
There are also bars in the Minami area when you want to have a quiet drink.
Even from the perspective of people in Japan, the city of Osaka is sometimes described as “lively,” “bright,” (noisy) and “like a foreign country.” However, not everyone is picky 24 hours a day.
Hozenji Yokocho, located in the Minami area, is a quiet and calm area that is different from the hustle and bustle of the surrounding area. Centered around a temple called Hozenji, which appeared in ancient Japanese literature, the cobblestone streets, filled with the scent of incense sticks, have a calm atmosphere that is different from the surrounding area.
There are bars even in this streetscape, and there are bars where you can sit in a quiet, relaxing atmosphere and enjoy a good conversation with a glass of wine.

The recent trend in the Minami area is that shisha bars are very popular
