The Bank, about a 7-minute walk from Kamakura Station, is a bar set in a building that once housed the former Kamakura Bank in the 1920s.
With its high ceilings, the interior is a classic space where amber lighting creates a calm mood. There are only a few seats, making it a place suited to adults who want to enjoy a quiet drink.

The “Gin and Tonic” is made with SUNSPELL GIN from HENDRICK'S gin lineup.
The fizzy carbonation is just right, and the fresh citrus aroma leaves a clean finish.

The “Vodka Rickey” in the photo is a simple long cocktail made with a vodka base, finished with lime and soda.
With zero sweetness, it has a crisp, refreshing taste that keeps you coming back for more. It is said to be a good pick for people who like clean, refreshing flavors.

On a weekday evening, I visited with a friend just to enjoy the atmosphere over one drink, and ended up savoring a blissful time. We ordered a gin and tonic and a salty dog, and had them with pickles. It felt like one of those grown-up moments.

The interior was just as impressive as the exterior, with a calm and very atmospheric feel. In Kamakura, I was able to enjoy a relaxed, grown-up kind of time, and it became a wonderful memory.

Bar The Tipple, about a 3-minute walk from Kamakura Station, is an authentic bar tucked away in a back alley just off the bustle of Komachi-dori (Komachi Street).
The dimly lit interior has a chic and calm feel. There are table seats, but the main seating is at the counter, which makes it easy to stop by even on your own.

The classic "Martini" is a carefully crafted drink that puts the harmony of gin and vermouth first, so it still tastes great even as the temperature changes.
Served in a stylish cocktail glass, the "Martini" is said to be strong and have a good kick.
Photograph:ルーキー３８
They also offer snack menu items like nuts, pickles, and chocolate to enjoy with drinks.
The "nishin (herring) pickles" in the photo are said to have a pleasant tanginess and a refreshing taste. They also pair well with Western spirits and wine.

I always decide on a martini as my first drink at a bar for the first time, so I ordered one without hesitation, and it was served with smooth, flowing motions, made with gin and presented in a stylish deep-bottomed inverted triangle cocktail glass. I had a really good martini for the first time in a while.

The cocktails made by the master have a dry, crisp style overall. I always end up having several drinks before heading home, but here is the Rob Roy that came out the best in the photo. The color is absolutely irresistible.

Higurashi Bunko is a tachinomi (standing bar) near Kamakura Station.
The appeal is the easy sense of closeness that lets conversation happen naturally even on a first visit while drinking standing up. It has a cozy atmosphere and is always lively with local customers.
Photograph:野毛べろ
As the word Bunko appears in the name, bookshelves are placed throughout the shop, it seems.
This standing bar has the fresh style of letting you browse books while you drink. The genres of bunkobon (paperback books) are varied, so even if you visit alone, you can spend your time well. The photo shows the popular "staff meal sour."
Photograph:araki268
The “kushiyaki (grilled skewers)” are perfect with drinks, and the lineup includes not only “naganegi (long green onion)” and “ginnan (ginkgo nuts)” but also more serious options like “Heart” and “yagen nankotsu (soft cartilage from the breastbone)”.
The “Heart,” cooked just right, is said to have a nice firmness on the outside while staying juicy inside.

Even as an outsider, I found this standing bar counter somehow calm and relaxing. The staff also had a laid-back vibe, and I took my time enjoying the night in Kamakura (Kamakura). The drinks and snacks were good too. If it were closer, I’d come here all the time.

・staff meal sour
A refreshing lemon sour filled almost to the limit with strong carbonation! It has a taste that makes you want to drink it again and again. The food is also low priced, just the right size, and the tasty snacks offer a good variety.

Univibe, which operates as a cafe during the day and a bar at night, is located a 4-minute walk from Kamakura Station.
It is marked by white exterior walls and a stained glass door, and the restaurant is on the second floor. Various sofa designs are placed throughout, creating a space that feels like a hidden retreat for adults.
Photograph:カマクライフ
Since it operates in a bar style at night, the alcohol menu is also well stocked, with tequila, rum, wine, and more.
The Kamakura (Kamakura) area has a strong craft beer culture, and many people there are said to enjoy beer.
Photograph:ユキミ*
The food menu offers plenty to enjoy, from lighter items like cheese to more filling dishes.
The “aigamo (crossbred duck) smoked duck” is said to pair the rich flavor of aigamo with a smoky aroma, with more flavor spreading the more you chew.

The interior was super stylish, with all kinds of sofas, chairs, and tables placed throughout the space. It was a very comfortable place where everyone could relax at their own pace while enjoying wine and cheese.

A rare and much appreciated place in Kamakura, where many restaurants close early, that stays open late into the night. The atmosphere is nice, and the chairs are quite comfortable. I did not order much food, but they seem to have some pretty hearty dishes, and I would like to try them next time. I am seriously grateful for a place in Kamakura that stays open late.

Jazz Club Daphne is a jazz bar located a 3-minute walk from Kamakura Station.
The softly candlelit interior is said to create a chic and calm space. You can spend an elegant time here while listening to live jazz performances.
Photograph:ぐるめ姫
The drink menu has a wide lineup, and you can also enjoy authentic cocktails.
On days with live performances, a music charge applies, and there is a two-order minimum of 2 drinks or food items. The fee also changes depending on the performance, so it is best to check in advance.

The "anchovy garlic pizza," which pairs well with white wine, has a thin, crispy crust.
The saltiness of the anchovies and the flavor of the garlic go well with the cheese, and it is said to be so tasty that you will not be able to stop eating it.

It turned into a great night with beer and wine while watching and listening to the wonderful stage music and singing, along with tasty shirasu (whitebait) pizza, seafood spaghetti, and a cheese assortment, leaving us completely Manzoku.

The bottle was properly chilled, and the food was good too♡The octopus carpaccio was beautifully plated, and the eggplant and chicken salad was super hearty!Since it’s a bakery, the pizza is probably great too, but I went with pilaf since it doesn’t use flour. It had just a slight bit of heat, and it was rich and delicious♡

Onari Bar & Cafe is located along Onari-dori.
The glass-walled interior feels open, yet it has a calm atmosphere that gives it the feel of a grown-up hideaway. It is a small space with 6 counter seats, where you can fully enjoy good drinks and food.

They will make a custom-made cocktail to match each guest’s taste.
The cocktail in the photo is a beautiful drink created for the request of something sweet that even people who are not strong with alcohol can enjoy. It has a light aroma of amaretto, plus the sweet and tangy freshness of orange.
This is the popular menu item, the Kamakura shirasu (whitebait) and green onion thin-crust pizza.
It is a pizza generously topped with fresh shirasu on a crispy crust. The savory taste of the shirasu, the saltiness of the cheese, and the mellow olive oil come together in layers, and once you try it, it is said to win you over.

Onari Bar in Kamakura stays open late for the area. It was my first time visiting, and the level of attentiveness felt just right, with good food and drinks. I was having trouble finding anywhere open, so it really helped that they were operating. The crowd was calm too.

Heartland and Guinness. Both are right up my alley, but that two-choice lineup is a bit unusual. One glass was not enough, so I had both. As a combination, it is close to the best, so for me, those two choices were more than enough in the end.

"Bar Sharuman" with its eye-catching red neon sign is a rare bar in Kamakura where you can listen to music.
The interior has a calm, counter-centered layout, and is said to be a hidden retreat for adults where you can slowly enjoy wine and whisky while surrounded by top-class sound.

The beautiful-looking "Shonan Gold ga Kaoru Highball" uses Shonan Gold (a citrus fruit developed in Kanagawa Prefecture), making it a refreshing drink.
The moment you bring the glass close, a sweet orange-like aroma rises up, and it softens the edges of the whiskey, making it easy to drink.

The "Gimlet," known for the sharp acidity of lime and the aroma of gin, is a crisp, grown-up cocktail.
With its restrained sweetness, each sip is said to feel like a reset. It is recommended when you want to settle into the mood with your first drink.
こうこうです
Once you open the slightly intimidating door, you’re greeted by records covering the entire wall and speakers so large you could mistake them for pillars. It’s the perfect space to enjoy a quiet drink while listening to music. It was a bar that made me want to keep coming back.

I visited again for the first time in a while. As always, it is such a quiet and relaxing place that it hardly feels like it is right in the middle of a tourist area. I had an amaretto and a seasonal melon cocktail. To be honest, melon is not usually my favorite fruit, but the aroma of the alcohol took away its green, cucumber-like notes, and I enjoyed it.
