MK Guide Recommends

LITTLE SMITH rests deep below Ginza’s streets, offering a warm, understated bar experience shaped by careful cocktail work and a calm, intimate setting. The space centers around its polished counter, where bartenders craft classic drinks with measured precision—martinis, highballs, seasonal variations—and engage in steady conversation with guests who appreciate the craft. Lighting stays low, the pace remains unhurried, and the atmosphere is distinctly Ginza: elegant without pretense, refined without being overly formal. A curated whisky selection adds depth to the menu, making the bar a comfortable spot for both first-time visitors and longtime regulars. Credit cards are accepted, though the bar maintains a traditional atmosphere. LITTLE SMITH continues to be a quiet, dependable sanctuary within Ginza’s nightlife—small in size, strong in character, and defined by the art of a well-made drink.
