But how do you, the discerning drinker, find the most attractive deals among the myriad of beer events and festivals out there? Fret not; we’ve done the leg work for you, so go ahead and choose from our list below. Cheers!

Tokyo's best beer gardens

  • Barbecue
  • Shinjuku

Wildbeach Shinjuku at Lumine Est is an annual beer garden venue that opens from April 17 to October 31. Despite being on a Shinjuku rooftop, this urban oasis will make you feel like you’re by the beach with its tropical decor.  It features five different areas: the Runway Beach with tables, benches and parasols; Luxury Terrace with comfy couches in the shade; Glamping Deck; private Anniversary Room; and the Yellow LA Garden with vibrant picnic tables.

The menu varies depending on where you’re seated, but you can choose to dine on an all-inclusive barbecue plan (from ¥3,900) or choose to bring your own ingredients for a cheaper price (from ¥2,000). Best of all, a standard two-hour all-you-can-drink plan only goes for ¥1,500. However, it’s worth ordering the premium plan (¥2,000) for the specialty cocktails, Asahi Super Dry beer and shandygaff.
