A fun and lively shot bar, Adezakura always recommends a round of tequila shots for everyone to loosen up and mingle. Coupled with the gregarious bartenders, and crowd-pleasing K-Pop, R&B and electro hits from the occasional DJ sets, Adezakura has won the hearts of many Ni-chome regulars. Doors open at 9pm Monday to Saturday, and it is strictly women- only until 2am, after which all genders are welcome until 6am. With the first trains starting around this time, Adezakura is the perfect place to hang out for an all-nighter in Ni-chome.

While there are many more places catering to the male-identifying end of the gay spectrum, there are still plenty of lesbian bars that are worth getting excited about.
