Where are you always drinking?

From the housing information site "HOME'S", the "Nonbee Ranking" was announced, asking liquor lovers about "recommended towns for drinking". As a result, it is clear that the recommended cities are completely different between "drinking alone" and "drinking on a date"! (That's right ...)

Let's start with the city recommended for drinking alone.

◆ A town recommended for drinking alone

1st place: Shinjuku (12.5%)
2nd place: Akabane (10.8%)
3rd place: Ueno (10.4%)
4th place: Ikebukuro (10.2%)
5th place: Kichijoji (9.6%)


Shinjuku is ranked first because there are many choices and there are shops where you can drink for a long time. Men commented that "it's easy to find someone to talk to," "Omoide Yokocho is the best place to drink alone," and "you can drink 24 hours a day. There are shops that serve delicious food in the morning." Some women said that it was "easy" and preferred a store that they could enter without hesitation.

In addition, it seems that the Akabane / Ueno area, which is in 2nd and 3rd place, was favored by many standing bars. The atmosphere of a popular izakaya and downtown is perfect for drinking alone.

By the way, I like drinking alone in Kichijoji. Harmonica Yokocho, it's good to be moderately deep.

◆ Recommended city for dating

Next, here is the recommended city ranking for going out for a drink on a date.

1st place: Ginza (27.7%)
2nd place: Ebisu (23.3%)
3rd place: Yokohama (19.6%)
4th place: Shibuya (15.0%)
5th place: Shinjuku (14.6%)


The face has changed dramatically from drinking alone. After all, it seems that high-class shops and a calm atmosphere of the city are important for dates.

A man who chose Ginza said, "Because there are bars of all styles in Japanese, Western, and Chinese." It may be one of the reasons why women are chosen because they can offer choices no matter what they want to eat.

After all, I want to emphasize the atmosphere on dates.

The women who chose Ebisu, who ranked second, commented that they were in a good location and that there were many reasonably priced and fashionable stores. Also, thank you for the opinion from the man who chose Yokohama in 3rd place that it is "easy to persuade".

◆ The city of "Senbero"

Finally, I would like to introduce the ranking of "Senbero" towns that "get drunk for 1,000 yen".

1st place: Akabane (24.0%)
2nd place: Ueno (19.4%)
3rd place: Shimbashi (13.1%)
4th place: Asakusa (12.1%)
5th place: Kanda (10.8%)


Akabane, which has many red lantern shops, is ranked first in the town where you can drink with a small budget. Some shops say, "You can drink 3 cups for 1,000 yen and get 3 snacks."

There seems to be a shop in Ueno, which is in second place, where you can drink from the morning. Shimbashi, which is in 3rd place, has a good cost performance and there are many shops for office workers.

◆ Bonus--Sake failure story

Lastly, I would like to introduce a little "failure story" that I made a mistake by drinking too much alcohol. Everyone be careful too!

"I was on the train when I woke up in the morning" (55-year-old man)
"Distributed money" (38-year-old man)
"I noticed that I was sleeping at home and had no memory at all, and I had a terrible bruise on my butt, so when I looked at the corduroy pants I wore that day, my butt was torn. I don't know where and how it was torn. (43-year-old woman)
"I thought I lost my house key and slept in front of the front door. February. When it was cold and I woke up, I held the key and slept." (43-year-old woman)
"I lost my memory and brought back another person's bag" (59-year-old man)

… Don't drink alcohol even if you drink it. This is an iron rule.
