The sky bar at the top of Asahi tower has lots of potential but is pretty dang poor in execution. The staff appear not to know what they're doing, when their only role is to pour beer and point people to an empty table. They also impose a queueing system, despite there being clearly empty rows of seats behind them on the day I visited. The views are amazing but the whole interior decor is cheap and tacky. Wipe clean varnished plywood tables reminiscent of a stay in a 1980s budget family holiday camp. Bare magnolia walls with no decoration. No wifi. Hard to find too, with bad signposting. Come on guys, do better.
Fancy architecture.. what's that golden thing on the roof anyway!? ;-)
Testing set is really considerate for the 1st comer,you can have all main kinds for your trial awesome!
Next to the godzilla's poop -like structure, you will experience an amazing view on the Sumida river, asakusa's temples and on Tokyo. It is a West view, so it's better to come at sunset and also be warned that you won't be the only one coming for that, therefore be prepared to want a little.
Beside the view, the bar is enough by itself to come enjoy a beer (an Asahi of course), discover the black one and put some Edamame or macha cheesecake in a cosy atmosphere.
In my opinion, this is a far better view than the one offered on the West part of Tokyo, in the two towers of the city administration building in shinjuku district.
Nice view and draft beer.
Not cheap, taste is excellent tho.
Good atmosphere to hang out for tourists,friends and couples.
I had the weissen craft beer from here and it was amazing.
It is a famous buildings in Tokyo designed by the architect Philippe Starck.
The building is near of The Tokyo Skytree and Asakusa area.
After the long walk in asakusa. Its a great place to relax and admire the view of sumida here while drinking a ice cold asahi beer. More some reason I dont find the beer here pricey because in exchange for an awesome view!
