Beers and lemon sours are the usual drinks on offer at an izakaya, but Chawari Gakugeidaigaku offers 100 different tea-based cocktails, known as chawari in Japanese.
There are ten types of teas ranging from matcha and genmaicha, to like Earl Gray and butterfly pea, which will be mixed with your choice of liquor. Each drink costs between ¥400 to ¥600 depending on the combination you choose. If you want to skip out on the alcohol, no problem – the bartender will fix you up a delicious mocktail instead.
Not only will you find a plethora of drink choices here, there’s just as much choice in how you enjoy the venue’s karaage fried chicken. You can choose among ten different cuts of chicken including the thigh, skin and liver, and pick from condiments and flavours like soy sauce, ume plum, curry and wasabi to change it up.
