In the back alleys of Kita Ward, where the atmosphere of downtown Osaka remains strong, a new standing bar called "Stand Yaopachi" has opened. This charming izakaya combines the old-fashioned atmosphere of Osaka with a new sensibility.
The menu sets itself apart from ordinary izakayas, with dishes made from the finest ingredients Osaka has to offer. Dishes like the thickly sliced beef tongue grilled on an iron plate, known as "Thick-Cut Gyutan", and the fresh seasonal vegetables with pork shoulder loin, known as "Turnips and Pork Shoulder Loin", are examples of what's available. Each dish is filled with the condensed taste of Osaka.
The interior of the establishment is centered around the counter, but there are also table seats at the back, allowing guests to comfortably enjoy their meal. The warm lighting and the warm wooden hues create an atmosphere reminiscent of a nostalgic izakaya nestled in the downtown area of Osaka.
While it primarily operates in a standing format, sitting and enjoying a drink is also welcomed. It adopts a unique system where chairs can be rented for 200 yen. It's equally enjoyable to make a quick stop or to sit back and leisurely enjoy a drink. The greatest allure lies in being able to freely enjoy a drink within the stylish atmosphere distinct to Osaka.
"Stand Yaopachi" allows visitors to experience both the old and new charm of Osaka. The relaxed and unpretentious atmosphere is delightful, and savoring the taste of Osaka quietly is a special experience. As a place where you can experience the unchanging Osaka style, why not visit and see for yourself?
