Bar Aries

Located on the ninth floor of a building in Ebisu 1-chome, Bar Aries offers a calm setting removed from the neighborhood's bustle, where guests can enjoy a drink at an unhurried pace. Alongside counter seating, the bar features comfortable booth and sofa seating, making it equally suited to quiet solo evenings or conversation with close companions.

Looking over the menu, the seasonal fruit cocktails immediately catch the eye, crafted to highlight flavors unique to the time of year. Built around carefully selected fresh fruit, these drinks deliver vibrant aromas and natural juiciness, providing a bright, refreshing choice to begin the night. Classic cocktails are also well represented, spanning staples like the Gin and Tonic made with dry gin, lime, and tonic water, to the harmonious Sidecar blending brandy, white curaçao, and lemon juice, and the Scotch-and-cherry-brandy combination of the Blood and Sand, each highlighting the distinctive character of its base spirit.

For those in the mood for something dessert-like or sweet, options include the Golden Cadillac—made with Galliano, white crème de cacao, and fresh cream—as well as an Espresso Martini combining vodka and espresso. In addition to cocktails, the bar pours beer, wine, and hard liquor alongside food meant to accompany drinks, allowing guests to pace their evening with food and conversation from its 18:00 opening into the late hours. Payment is accepted via various credit cards, electronic money, and QR code services, and advance reservations make planning a smooth visit straightforward.
