[Fukuoka/Hakata area] Two female drinkers go on a daytime drinking spree at three bars
We had a weekday off.
We happened to be closed on Saturday, so we met up at lunchtime and started our day drinking around Hakata.
First stop 🍺
Pizzeria Da Gaetano
The atmosphere was amazing!
It felt like a restaurant overseas,
It was lively,
And the staff were attentive to even the smallest details.
The fact that it's accessible via the underground from Hakata Station was a plus.
All the food was delicious.

Second Stop 🍺
Niku-yaki Benjamin
We headed straight to Sanhyakupo Yokocho, next door.
Craving meat,
we went to Niku-yaki Benjamin.
We ordered the Yakiniku Set for two, 1,980 yen (excluding tax).
We thought we'd have to choose just one dish,
but they brought out two portions of each dish,
a very satisfying surprise.
We wanted rice,
but we're still drinking later, so we'll hold off.

Third Stop 🍺
Urabe Shoten
Continue underground and take the subway to the next station, Higashi-Hie.
After getting off, walk a little to reach Urabe Shoten, my main destination.
You can also walk from Hakata Station, but it was too hot that day.
I went for the light drink set.
Two small side dishes of my choice and one drink.
These small side dishes include fish stew and tempura.
It's a standing bar in a fishmonger's shop, so the snacks are amazing.
Although it's standing-only, they also have seating.
