What's Nomi Map?

Nomi Map is a curated guide to Tokyo's cheap izakayas — the kind of places where a drink starts at ¥350 and the seats fill up fast. No reviews, no ratings. Just the spots worth going to, with the information you actually need to get there.

It's built for two kinds of people: locals deciding where to drink on the train ride over, and foreign residents who found a place on TikTok or Instagram and need to know if it's open, what it costs, and how to get there — in English.

Every entry is hand-picked from trusted sources: せんべろnet, TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. Each place links back to the content that made us add it, so you can judge for yourself before you walk through the door.

If you know a spot that should be on here, or something's changed since we added it, we'd love to hear from you.
