Best no-alcohol bars and drinks in Tokyo

At this sleek and futuristic Roppongi bar, you can expect inventive mocktails like the Goldentree, made from cold brew coffee and fresh grapefruit, or A Real Pleasure, featuring a mix of fresh fruit and basil. There’s over 20 different mocktails to choose from, all created by award-winning bartender Shingo Gokan from The SG Club. To fit the healthier bent of the bar, there's also a menu of small bites that are all vegan, such as quesadillas with fried avocado.

Note that 0% Non-Alcohol Experience only accepts cashless payments.

Low-Non Bar is decked out with the trimmings of a classic Tokyo cocktail bar: moody lighting, wooden countertops, soft jazz, shelves lined with glittering glassware and attractive bottles of liquor, and a skillful bartender. The only difference is that the cocktails are low- or no-alcohol – but don’t worry, you’ll barely miss it with the selection of inventive drinks like Low-non Bar and Umami Virgin Mary.

Tucked away on the third floor of an apartment block in Yoyogi-Uehara, No (the abbreviation for ‘number’) is a fresh, modern venue, bringing together a café and bar. As well as cocktails, No has an excellent selection of mocktails, which – in line with the venue’s name – are simply numbered from one to five, plus seasonal specials. We love No 2, a highball glass of cold brew coffee, juniper syrup, vinegar, tonic and soda, and No 3, a short and punchy mocktail of lime juice, lime stock, ginger beer and burdock tea. 

Boasting views of Hibiya Park and the lush Imperial Palace gardens, you'll find this chic hotel bar on the 24th floor of The Peninsula Tokyo. The bar's newly developed zero-alcohol menu featuring a curation of non-alcoholic beverages whipped up by the bar's award-winning mixologist Mari Kamata. Priced at ¥2,050 per drink, the menu consists of non-alcoholic versions of classic cocktails including an aperol spritz, gin and tonic and negroni, as well as booze-free twists on the bar's signature drinks.

Bar Straw is a non-alcoholic pop-up bar that you can find Tuesday and Wednesday evenings at the quaint flower shop-wine bar hybrid The Little Shop of Flowers in Shibuya Parco. The menu is short and sweet – there are just a handful of different cocktails, but all are well-balanced, refreshing concoctions. We enjoyed the celery, parsley, sesame and Appletizer mix and the hojicha and grapefruit milk punch. Plus, it’s hard to go past the matcha beer.
