Exuding lively energy in an alley right by Oimachi Station, Niku no Maekawa is an authentic standing bar that repurposes the display cases and equipment of a former butcher shop. The signature Wagyu rump roast beef boasts a moderate marbling with an exceptional melt-in-your-mouth texture, served with condiments (yakumi) like ginger and garlic. In addition, an array of exquisite dishes unique to a butcher shop are offered at affordable prices, such as parboiled rare chicken tenders with an addictive texture, and freshly fried, juicy minced meat cutlets (menchi-katsu). Grabbing your own can of beer from the refrigerator at the back of the shop and paying in cash per order in a cash-on-delivery style is also part of the shop's true charm. Using bamboo skewers instead of chopsticks to pick at the meat, this buzzing renowned bar is a casual spot you can drop by without hesitation for an after-work drink or the start of a bar crawl.
