Known for its vibrant atmosphere and budget-friendly offerings, this dining hotspot promises an experience that locals will adore. Over the four-day opening period from July 10 to July 13, guests can enjoy incredible deals with draft beer priced at just 99 yen!

Concept and Atmosphere
Kawanosuke is rooted in the local community, aiming to build a place where customers feel at home and the staff are cherished as part of the family. The izakaya's primary target demographic is working adults in their 30s to 50s, offering a space of relaxation after a long workday. With a chic yet casual environment, patrons can unwind at the counter with a drink, indulge in signature dishes, and enjoy friendly conversations with the staff before heading back to their routines. The focal goal of Kawanosuke is ensuring that patrons leave feeling refreshed and ready for the next day.
With a commitment to being a beloved establishment that ages alongside the community, Kawanosuke embodies the essence of a genuine izakaya where goodwill and hospitality reign supreme.
Menu Highlights
Forget about the traditional 'otoshi' (snack served at the beginning of the meal); at Kawanosuke, delicious meals are accessible at price points that resonate with everyone. The menu proudly features hearty comfort foods reminiscent of simpler times, embodying the mantra of being 'Fast, Cheap, and Delicious.' One standout dish is the house-special 'Nikudofu,' a homemade meat and tofu dish priced at only 180 yen (excluding tax).
For those looking to quench their thirst, drinks start at a budget-friendly 290 yen (excluding tax). Regular customers can also take advantage of special deals on bottle drinks, with 'Kinmyou' bottles available for 1,200 yen (excluding tax) proudly lined up behind the bar.
Dining Experience and Customer Interaction
Kawanosuke prioritizes an inviting atmosphere that fosters a sense of approachability and relaxation, referred to as 'Tsudokkan'—meaning the perfect balance of expectation and comfort. Patrons can count on consistently prompt service, enjoyable drinks, and delightful food, catering to the needs of every visitor. Each experience aims to be slightly extraordinary, making an ordinary day feel special.
Also, for those who prefer private gatherings, the Kichijoji location offers banquet seating tailored for small celebrations—a perfect spot for office get-togethers or farewell parties. Guests are also encouraged to explore exclusive off-menu items specially curated for our regulars, crafting an addictive experience that keeps them coming back.
Grand Opening Celebration
To celebrate the grand opening, Kawanosuke invites the Tokorozawa community to enjoy draft beer at the unbeatable price of 99 yen daily between July 10 and July 13!
