Kyoto, Japan｜cafe&bar Miltons Kyoto

Top 3 bar experiences ever!!! Milton is the loveliest man and bartender we have ever met. His bar is adorned with his own artworks (he’s been painting/sculpting for 20 years!), which puts a very unique twist on the place. There’s no menu - you just choose from the huge selection of bottles across the bar and let him work his magic. Bless you Milton - we’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in Kyoto!

One of my favorite places in Japan for its service, drinks, and experience. Milton, the bar owner, greets you warmly in a cozy 6-seater bar decorated uniquely with fun music playing at the perfect volume — low enough for conversation and loud enough to sing along. We chatted with Milton and he went above and beyond to make sure our night and entire stay in Kyoto would be top notch. Definitely check out this bar! Note: it’s on the 2nd floor of a walk-up building with narrow stairs. Thank you for the best time, Milton!

Popped into Milton's for a couple of casual drinks and had an absolutely wonderful time. The drinks were great and Milton is full of excellent recommendations, this is definitely somewhere to go if you want a quiet drink in a place with real character. Thank you Milton!
