Tachinomidokoro Maimeri: A No-Frills Standing Bar Serving Takoyaki in Japan

Tachinomidokoro Maimeri, despite its signage emphasizing takoyaki (octopus dumplings), is actually a no-frills standing bar that serves beer, whiskey, nihonshu (Japanese sake), and shochu (distilled spirits made from grains or vegetables), along with non-alcoholic drinks, accompanied by takoyaki and other small side dishes.
