Shousukedon is a cozy izakaya located in Sapporo, in the Susukino district. It’s got a lot of character and has a rustic charm about it. It can be found along route 36 across from the Daiwa Roynet Hotel and is just down from the Mercure Hotel. The best thing about this small izakaya is that it has street side seating which is great during spring and especially the summer. During the winter, they have a heavy plastic cover and inside heaters to keep you warm. Shousukedon has lots of small dishes, plus meat dishes which you can cook yourself on a small open flame grill.
It’s great to sit outside and watch the street and people go buy as you chow down on some simple food and have a few beers. If you want to stay a while, they have an all you can drink plan (nomi-hodai) which goes for two hours at ¥2000. They also have whiskey, shochu, wine, bottles of sake and some nice fruit wine. The staff here are really friendly and also many of the local patrons here are often relaxed, laid back and like to chat. It is small izakayas like this that have a unique feel and are interesting, especially for travelers from foreign lands, and well worth a visit!

Location | Sapporo, south 7 west 3. 6 minute walk from Susukino subway station, 5 minute walk from Nakajima koen subway station. Japan, 〒064-0807 Hokkaido Prefecture, Sapporo, Chuo Ward, Minami 7 Jonishi, 3 Chome, LC弐番館ビル1F |
RAD BROTHERS is one of the few bars that can claim it has seen it all over its 25 year history. Back in the day it had the infamy of being the ‘wild bar’ of Sapporo. It has definitely calmed down over the years, but it is one of the bars open at the wee hours of the morning if you are still staggering around at that time. The bar is situated on the southern end of Susukino (the entertainment district) and is on the corner of the main street offering large window views of the streets. It seats around 50 with more standing space and is good for large groups. It is even possible to rent the whole bar for a few hours, if that happens to tickle your fancy. The music ranges from rock to pop to anything really and the staff are more than happy to play a request. There are also two large TV screens that will play the main sporting events when they are on.
[the_ad id=”4264″]
The menu is in English and the friendly staff have varying degrees of English ability which can come in handy after a few drinks. The menu has a standard set of drinks with Sapporo classic on tap, with a large array of cocktails, and with tequila shots that seem to pop up often on the counter. Prices are generally ¥550 for most drinks and ¥600 for imported beer, such as Corona and Heineken. On occasion RAD BROTHERS will have events which will involve a cheap ‘all you can drink’ plan. As this is a bar mainly for drinking, only basic bar food is the menu. Being mostly snack type foods consisting of fried food, the Rad Brothers small pizzas, cheese platters, and delicious buffalo wings. This bar is a smoking establishment and does accept credit cards which is a bonus for travelers as ATM’s in Japan aren’t as handy as one might think. Another great feature is that RAD BROTHERS has its own Wi-Fi hotspot, a somewhat uncommon feature in most bars in Japan!
