Kyoto, Japan｜L'Escamoteur

Great vibe! We walked by randomly and decided to check it out. Met other travellers whilst waiting in line so the wait didn’t feel too long at all. Inside, the atmosphere was great! Chris and his team were great - very attentive and had great showmanship. I had the Zen and Stone as well as another Botanical drink on the magic drinks list and had an absolute blast. It wasn’t just drinks, it was the company, the friends we made along the way and the magic tricks that Chris pulled. Was a GREAT night! 6/5 stars for the great time 😊

The atmosphere the decor and the friendliness of the staff was above and beyond. We got to the bar at about 8:05 and the line was out the door. We waited for about an hour as we could not get in at first seating but as soon as we got in it was all worth it. Drinks are beyond fantastic the owner really listens and understands what you want. Christophe the owner made our night special. He used fresh ingredients and put on an amazing show. I wish we had places like this in New York. Note to people who want to attend arrive a bit earlier and you’ll be in the first group to get in and trust me you won’t regret it. I hope I’ll be back to Kyoto one day and will definitely visit Christophe and his team at this special place. Hardworking crew couldn’t ask for more.

It is a unique #bar in #Kyoto. Their cocktails are delicious and even some cocktails come with a magic trick or even a visual magic show!! Bartertenders and staff wear hats & matching suspenders, looks quite cool. It is a bit more expensive than usual bars. For instance the cocktail prices (at least the ones we tried changes between ¥1700-2000). But it is worth it. The atmosphere is also very nice and cozy with unique decorations. For instance, you can access the restroom behind a bookshelf or there is a book moving up and down like an elevator at the wall when customers are in and out. l recommend this spot as a must see in Kyoto.
