Duke Of Tokyo

You’ll have a blast at this Japanese-themed bar with karaoke rooms for that one friend who needs to belt it out at least once a week. (And if performing isn’t your thing, just dance to uptempo beats with all kinds of strangers who are dipping in and out of other raucous bars on Reguliersdwarsstraat.) The shoulder-to-shoulder crowd might make you think this is the type of place that only serves well drinks and watered-down shots, but you can get excellent cocktails here like the Nomunication highball with Japanese whiskey, shiso, and shochu. Beers, wines, and sake are also available if you just need to keep your vocal cords hydrated, or buy rounds for your new friends without much thought.
