A very unique and cozy bar in central Sapporo. The theme has a jazz blues style going on reminiscent of a small bar down in New Orleans. Crowding the walls and roof are trinkets, statues, and posters from all around. Seating wise, there are a couple of counter seats and a couple more small tables. This bar is best to drink in very small of groups of up to 4. The bar is singularly run by the owner. He speaks very little English however. The menu has mainly beer and cocktails on the menu. Drinks go for about ¥600 per drink, as well as the cocktails. There is a sit down charge of at least ¥500 per person so be warned as many customers are surprised when the bill comes. This is a cozy bar and has a great little atmosphere plus you can find some classic bottled beers here such as Budweiser, Corona, Kirin, and Guiness to name a few.
This is primarily a bar though they do have some food here, albeit basic bar food. The name does say cafe and they do have coffee here and some cakes to enjoy. Overall, a good little bar to check out while in Sapporo.

Perch is a great homely coffee shop in Sapporo. It has been set up in one of the houses in area and serves not only as a cafe, but as a bar and also as an arts and crafts store!

For lunch or dinners they have pastas, smoked sausages, and a delicious keema curry. There is also a selection of spirits and wines if you are looking for something stronger than coffee.
The desserts here are fantastic. The caramel pudding is homemade, as well as the cheesecake. Both are equally delicious and are the perfect accompaniment to a nice cup of coffee or tea.

Gaccha is a small cafe on the first block of the Tanukikoji Shopping Arcade. It is the very first store on the corner as you make your way through the entrance to Tanuki Koji. The coffee shop, being on the corner faces Soseigawa Park. This coffee shop is a cool little place in a convenient spot that is close to a lot of well known places in Sapporo. The layout is open and the walls are lined with bits and pieces, ornaments and other interesting collectibles.
The coffee here is pretty good but that’s not all that is sold here. They have alcohol on the menu as well. There is wine and beer as well if you are looking for something a little stronger than coffee. There is also a little food here on the menu but it is just small. If you are looking for a large lunch or evening meal, Gaccha probably won’t be enough. They excel in mainly coffees and drinks. There is outside seating in the warmer months as well.
