A different space reminiscent of an abandoned theatre.

On one floor of a cosy building just a few steps from Shinsaibashi Station in the heart of Osaka's Minami district.

Beyond the elevator is a unique space that looks like an abandoned building, a factory, a laboratory or even a garage, with exposed concrete and piping.

At the front is a square-shaped open counter (with three bar stations).

At the back, a variable table seating over 50 (together with the counter, nearly 80 seats!)..

The ceiling is so high that it is hard to believe it is in a building, and the bar is quite spacious for a city bar.

This is KARUDA, which was jointly established by three unique bartenders - Keisuke Nakaichi of Bar Sensei, Hiroyasu Nakayama of Bar Nayuta and Asyu Yamamoto of Late Night Cafe Mansardo.
