About Sekirei

Walking into Sekirei is just like walking into dear Martha’s lovely garden, complete with a lush green lawn, the quaint wicker furniture strewn all around and an air of absolute peace hanging in the air. You will almost feel like returning to the bliss of your home after a day out amidst the hustle and bustle of the city. Quite a revolution in terms of the kinds of bars, Japan offers.

Sekirei forms a part of the Meiji Kinenkan wedding hall and convention, located just by the Meiji-jingu Outer Gardens in the Moto-Akasaka zone of Tokyo. There’s a main abr building overlooking a dainty row of candlelit tables. Encircling this building are pine trees trimmed down to look like bonsais. Sekirei, Tokyo sports a setting that is unlike any of the other Japanese bars.

What To Expect At The Sekirei

An evening at the Sekirei is not just about downing a few glasses of beer or taking in a few snacks. You will be also treated a heavenly song and dance routine, a nihon buyo, where costumed Japanese dancers sway to the soulful tunes of a shamisen. The falling rays of the sun, the peace all around and the languorous steps of the dancers: potent combination to lull you into a trance. You couldn’t have hoped for a better finish to a hectic day.

Sekirei is an izakaya-style bar, that is to say, a place where you can both eat and drink. The food and the drinks are quite reasonably priced at the Sekirei, considering the eclectic environs that you get to enjoy here. The drinks start from around 500 yen here and there are no table charges here. The table fare consists of Japanese beer, a selection of red and white wines and traditional Japanese and western food. The food stuffs start from around 1,000 yens.

Amongst the varied Tokyo nightlife options, foreigners are particularly fond of the Sekirei. The reasons are not hard to guess. So you can expect quite a cosmopolitan gathering here.

Be it the El Café Latino or the Warrior Celt, nightlife in Japan has a medley of motifs to offer. But Sekirei is one place that will never give you that feeling of being there and seen it all.
