BAR HOP AROUND THE STATION

On the side streets and alleyways of the Sun Mall Shopping Street, you can find loads of bars and izakayas lined up. During lunch time, lots of the well known ramen shops begin to open up to allow local office workers to get a hearty bowl of ramen midday. Then, at night, the izakayas and bars begin to open bringing a lively night scene to the area. You can hit up Juke 80s an 80s music request bar. Their drinks are all 500 yen as well! Or head on over to Vowz bar - a monk run bar.
