Made it down the mountain after a long day on the slopes? Are you feeling a bit parched? Luckily we have all the tips for where you can grab a cold one in Niseko before heading to Main Arena!

 

Make sure you don’t miss out on a visit to Bar Gyu+ in the heart of Hirafu. 

With it’s famous red fridge door entrance, it’s a fan favourite for a more intimate evening sipping on some delicious cocktails, whisky and wine!

Tunes popping at Bar Gyu+

 

Kick back and relax with a cold one while the live music plays at Half Note. A local hotspot that’s always buzzing, especially if you’ve got a group ready to tackle their lively quiz nights during the week! (…also they are one of the only places you can get your hands on an Aussie meat pie!)

For a lively vibe in the Upper Hirafu area, Wild Bill’s is the place to be! With a free pool table, darts, and loads of local beers on tap, it’s always a good time!

Missing some warmth? Step into the tropics at Bar Barunba! Meaning ‘good wave’, you’ll forget it’s snowing in no time at this Indonesian style bar. We recommend trying the ‘Bruce Lee’ cocktail if you’re feeling brave. 

Address: 170-5 Aza-Yamada, Kutchan, Hokkaido

Step into Bali at Bar Barunba!

Whether you’re kicking off the night with pre-drinks before hitting the Main Arena, or keeping the party going after the action, Niseko’s nightlife has you covered! We’ll see you there!
