Rediscovering Childhood at Ubu Wine Bar

The Ubu Wine Bar, proudly operated by Harapeko Co., Ltd., invites you to dive into the delightful nostalgia of classic video games. Set to kick off on January 1, 2026, this exciting event will take you back in time with a selection of iconic titles playable on vintage CRT TVs, all while sipping on a luxurious glass of wine.

What is Ubu?

Ubu is not just a wine bar; it's an experience where childhood nostalgia meets the elegance of adult refinement. With a menu that features beloved childhood dishes such as omelet rice and spaghetti Napolitan, all rejuvenated with a gourmet twist, Ubu offers a unique culinary journey. Imagine relishing exquisite wines while surrounded by your favorite childhood meals, all in a chic yet cozy atmosphere.

The decor is designed to evoke warm memories, as the walls are lined with over 700 manga volumes, creating an inviting space where conversations flow as freely as the drinks.

The Famicom Event

Starting January 1, 2026, Ubu will hold a special event dedicated to the original Famicom gaming console. Classic games like Super Mario Brothers, Bomberman, Ninja Jajamarukun, TwinBee, and Gradius will be available for play, promising to revive cherished memories of gaming during cozy winter nights. Grab some snacks, enjoy refreshing drinks, and let the nostalgia take over as you reminisce about those carefree days spent gaming with friends and family.

In addition to classic games to enjoy, Ubu will provide premium potato chips made from the finest Kita Akari potatoes, paired with their luxurious wine selection.

Ubu will remain open throughout the New Year holidays, so whether you’re staying in Tokyo or just looking for a place to gather with friends, come join us for a delightful experience.
