Shinagawa City, Tokyo, Japan｜豊後屋(ぶんごや)

I tried several times, but it was always full and I gave up, but finally I was able to get in. The entrance on the first floor is narrow, and you have to go up some stairs to enter the store. It's a standing bar, but all the food is delicious and the owner's wife is kind and polite, so you'll have a good impression! Smoking is allowed, including cigarettes, so those who don't like smoking should be prepared. This is a store I want to visit again and again!

I happened to be passing by when I stopped by one of the many izakaya restaurants in Oimachi with Kakin, and I've been hooked ever since. The customer base is diverse, including office workers from the first and second stores, couples coming for a quick dinner, solo female customers, and lone male customers drinking while absentmindedly watching TV. The atmosphere is calm and comfortable, perhaps because it is prohibited. All seats are at counters facing the wall, and you order cash-on style. Kimchi and fried pasta are 100 yen, rakkyo and bamboo shoots boiled in Tosa are 150 yen, Korean seaweed and edamame are 200 yen...not just light snacks with standing drinks available. For 250 yen, you can get a large spa salad flavored with mustard, a shrimp cutlet with plenty of original tartare, and a half-sized portion of fried liver that's enough for two people. The myoga with sardines was refreshing and perfect for a break from chopsticks, and the fried kamaboko and fried chikuwa with isobe were filling. And all of them are very delicious. The cost performance is the best. Next time I would like to try the fried horse mackerel and the fried chicken. There are (common sense) warnings posted everywhere, such as don't talk loudly and wash your hands after using the toilet. A group of people who were actually drunk and making loud noises were given a gentle warning by the store staff. Perhaps because of this, it's a very popular standing bar, perfect for when you want to have a quick and delicious drink while talking about work. This is my favorite restaurant when I want to eat dinner alone while staring at the TV or thinking outside the window. → (Revisited) The fried oysters and fried chicken mayo were also delicious! Everything here is delicious no matter what you order. The pickled smelt in Nanban and candied smelt are also delicious and I'm addicted to them.

If you want to eat delicious food alone or with a small group in Oimachi, you'll definitely come here. It may be a little difficult to find the first time because it is on the second floor and the entrance is narrow. Standing bars have an image of being a bit chaotic, but this is not the case at all.The inside of the bar is clean, has a good customer base, and is very comfortable. Staff will be ruthless in warning customers who are noisy or who are too drunk to stand up. It may not be suitable for people who like to drink lively, but it's one of the few standing bars in Oimachi where you can drink in peace, everything is delicious, and the best value for money, and I've been recommending it to people lately. The photo is Nasupon. (Revisit) As expected, the shrimp cutlet (or rather, everything) is delicious.
