Bars and Nightclubs in Roppongi

There are too many bars and and nightclubs to list here though these are the more popular ones which have been around for awhile. Many of the bars open and shutdown or change names in a short period of time.

 

TGI Friday's is a good traditional American bar and restaurant serving food and drinks. Is usually busy with decent music not played too loud so you can still have a chat.

TGI Fridays Roppongi Nightlife

 

Hard Rock Cafe - no large city nightlife scene is complete without it's own Hard Rock Cafe. The Hard Rock Cafe Roppongi is located right in the centre of all the nightlife action, just across from TGI Fridays. Right in front of The Hard Rock Cafe is the Hard Rock Store to buy your souvenir t-shirt.

Hard Rock Cafe Roppongi Nightlife

 

Jumanji is a night club located just down the laneway from TGI Fridays. Playing loud dance music until 5am.

Warning - there are plenty of African men (from West African - Senegal and Nigeria) on the streets of Roppongi trying to get you to visit some of the bars. These men are mostly harmless and can be a good laugh. Though generally they are trying to get you into the bars and strip clubs where the prices are much higher than other bars and clubs in Roppongi.

There are 2 main shopping plazas in Roppongi. 1 is the Roppongi Hills complex and the other is Tokyo Midtown which features the Galleries shopping plaza with a range of high end shops and restaurants.

Finding an ATM Bank Automatic Cash Machine in Roppongi

It is not easy to find an ATM ( Bank Automatic Teller Machine) in Roppongi that accepts international issue bank cards. There used to be a 7Eleven store on the main road, just down from Roppongi Crossing though that is now closed. All the other conveniences stores like Lawson have ATMs but they only accept bank cards issued by Japanese Banks or Citibank,

The only ATMS that I could find was in Roppongi Hills Shopping complex, Enter the West Walk and turn left just after the information counter and there is are 2 Citibank ATM machines they accept Mastercard, VISA, Cirrus, Maestro cards. Roppongi Hills is around 380 meters walk from Roppongi Crossing.

If you are planning a big night in Roppongi then make sure you cash up before you arrive.
