Get pleasantly tipsy on fragrant charcoal-grilled motsuyaki and rare draft Hoppy under the smoke-filled, retro Showa-era train tracks

  • Signature draft Hoppy
  • Fragrant charcoal-grilled motsuyaki
  • Slowly simmered beef offal stew
  • Great for a quick drink after work
  • Convenient for daytime drinking and bar-hopping
  • Retro Showa-era space under the train tracks
  • Historic long-established shop founded in 1953

Hanging its noren curtain under the bustling JR train tracks of Yurakucho, Motsuyaki Tonton is a long-established motsuyaki eatery that has supported the railway-arch drinking culture since its founding in 1953. Filled with the fragrant white smoke of charcoal fires, where even the roar of trains passing overhead turns into pleasant background music, the restaurant is steeped in an ambiance reminiscent of stepping back into the Showa era. Large pork jowl skewers and assorted motsuyaki platters grilled aromatically over the grill burst with juicy savory flavor with every bite, pairing perfectly with their secret sauce and drinks. The signature draft Hoppy poured straight from the dispenser and the tender, miso-based simmered beef offal stew also make ideal drinking snacks. From a quick drink after work to weekend daytime drinking, this is a spot where you can unpretentiously enjoy delicious skewers and a cold glass.
