Just relocated and opened in July 2025, moving from Onomichi City to Hiroshima City within Hiroshima Prefecture. Open from noon. Famous for plant-based cocktails and parfaits. All ingredients are homemade. Apparently, their worldview and dedication are incredible. We were so intrigued that the DRINK PLANET team rushed down to Hiroshima for a visit!

Deliberately choosing the bar-free area of Hatchobori!

In the August 2025 issue of DRINK PLANET, we just featured Hiroshima's "Bar Alegre" led by Osamu Kojima, but we're covering another Hiroshima bar.

Its name is "BAR NAI".

While "Bar Alegre" is located in Hiroshima's Nagarekawa district, the largest entertainment district in the Chugoku and Shikoku regions, "BAR NAI" sits on the opposite side of the streetcar tracks, in the Hatchobori area.

This area features offices and new hotels, giving it a relatively calm and quiet impression.

Yet tucked away in the back alleys, you'll find scattered, small, niche eateries with a high level of specialization.

"BAR NAI" is also located on the first floor of an elegant building, but despite being a street-level shop, its narrow frontage makes it rather inconspicuous. Peering through the glass door, you can only see a faint glow inside, making you hesitate to step in.
