Bar.espranza

Some visitors have enjoyed an Old Fashioned made sweeter to suit their taste; others say the bartender mixed a cocktail for them on the spot. At Bar.espranza, part of the pleasure seems to be choosing a drink by describing the flavours you feel like. You can arrive with an order in mind, or ask for something based on your preferences.

The selection, which includes Japanese labels, is another draw for whisky drinkers. Visitors have mentioned trying Japanese whisky and commented on the variety available. Beer, wine, cocktails and spirits are also listed, making it possible to stop in for a light drink or settle in with a favourite.

One visitor recalls enjoying beer and Japanese whisky at the counter while chatting with the owner and other guests. Another appreciated the time spent with the owner and regulars, and returned the next day to eat oden. That account describes oden as something enjoyed on a return visit; the available information does not establish whether it is a regular menu item. Rather than counting on a particular meal, this is a bar to visit with an idea of the drink and kind of evening you have in mind.

The bar also has a Gundam collection, which visitors have mentioned looking at over a drink. Whether you prefer to savour whisky quietly at the counter or spend the evening in conversation, there are different ways to enjoy the place.
