Bars and pubs
Three Hundred Bar
Both bars have a mixed foreign and Japanese clientele.
Duffy's
An Irish pub with an authentic look and feel, as well as ¥500 Guinness during happy hour.
Coffee
Cafe Doutor
Located in the famous San-ai building, this expensive coffee shop is very popular for "people watching". Unfortunately, the view from the patio is blocked by the police box, but it is still great. Doutor also has various shops along Chuo-dori and it's one of the biggest chains in Tokyo. Mind you, the price of coffee at this particular one is somewhat inflated compared to the more common normal doutors at other places.
Ginza Cafe Paulista
One of the oldest cafes in Japan and a favorite of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, the Paulista opened in 1909 with beans imported directly from Santos, Brazil.
Happy Plaza
Located on the 9th floor in the cylinder of San-ai building. The location complete with floor to ceiling windows provides a stunning view of Chuo-dori and the Wako and Mitsukoshi stores opposite. In addition to the usual cakes and drinks a light meal is available during lunch hours.
Sabaku no Bara (Desert Rose)
Upscale club with an expensive cover charge and no dress code, but after all it is Ginza. The clientele is older and more affluent, and not as rowdy as the crowd you will find in Roppongi.
