8 cocktail bar places in Hiroshima we have eaten in, sorted by editor score. All cuisines in Hiroshima | Cocktail Bar across every city.

Bar Alegre ★ 4.6

¥¥¥Cocktail barNagarekawa

Bar Alegre hides on a third floor in Horikawa-cho, a Hiroshima room split between a tea-house entrance and a back bar modelled on a 1920s speakeasy.

TipSeasonal fruit cocktails are the house line, and the bar keeps homemade dark chocolate cut with Sakurao whisky.

Helen Cafe and Bar ★ 4.2

¥¥Cocktail barOtemachi

Helen turns from a Komachi cafe into a Hiroshima whisky bar at 18:00, stocking Yamazaki, Hakushu and Hibiki beside its espresso cocktails and charcuterie.

TipThe same room serves cheese terrines and lattes until 18:00, so an early visit costs a fraction of the evening tab.

Bar Neo ★ 3.9

¥¥Cocktail barNagarekawa

Bar Neo works the fourth floor of a Nagarekawa building in Hiroshima until 03:00, with house fruit syrups, a darts board and a karaoke corner in the back.

TipFriday and Saturday service runs to 04:00, which makes this one of the later doors in the Nagarekawa grid.

Bambino ★ 3.7

¥¥Cocktail barNagarekawa

Bambino spreads over two floors in Mikawa-cho, a Hiroshima dining bar with a griddle turning out ketchup omurice into the small hours every day of the week.

TipFood orders stop at 04:00 and drinks at 04:30, and the venue never closes for a regular rest day.

80s Bar Kayokyoku Hit Studio ★ 3.8

¥¥Cocktail barNagarekawa

80s Bar Kayokyoku Hit Studio plays requests from about 3,000 singles and LPs in Nagarekawa, a Hiroshima room built entirely around Showa-era pop music.

TipGroups of twenty or more can take the whole room, and the bar closes on Sundays outside public holidays.

Helen Cafe and Bar ★ 4.2

¥¥Cocktail barOtemachi

Helen works as a Komachi cafe in Hiroshima until 18:00, serving cheese terrines and espresso drinks before the room turns into a whisky bar at night.

TipCome before 18:00 for the dessert and coffee menu; after that the room switches to Japanese whisky and cocktails.

Bambino ★ 3.7

¥¥Cocktail barNagarekawa

Bambino keeps a griddle running to a 04:00 kitchen close in Mikawa-cho, the Hiroshima dining bar to fall into once the Nagarekawa doors start closing.

OrderKetchup omurice off the teppan at three in the morning

TipFood orders stop at 04:00 and drinks at 04:30, and the venue keeps no regular closing day.

Bar Neo ★ 3.9

¥¥Cocktail barNagarekawa

Bar Neo pours until 03:00 on most nights and until 04:00 at weekends, from a fourth-floor Nagarekawa room in the middle of central Hiroshima.

OrderA seasonal cocktail built on the house fruit syrup

TipDarts and karaoke share the floor, so this is a loud last stop rather than a quiet nightcap.
