Haven Nº 004 — Asia › Japan › Tokyo · Tables & Bars
The SG Club
This Tokyo bar has four floors. You're allowed on three.
Take it from the top: eight seats at Sangai, a door you walk past at Savor, no booking at Guzzle, and a shoeshine in the basement at Sip.
3F · Sangai
Eight seats, one counter
Start at the top. Sangai seats eight people at a single counter, for a run of five cocktails built on fruit from farms across Japan.
There are two seatings, at six and at eight, Wednesday to Sunday. Book the six o’clock: you will want the rest of the building afterwards. Five cocktails were ¥16,500 in August 2025.
2F · Savor
The floor you skip
The second floor is Savor, a cigar and cocktail room for members. It is the floor you skip, and the reason the other three feel like a privilege.
1F · Guzzle
Walk in
Guzzle is the street-level bar. It takes no bookings: you walk in, take a stool at the wood, and the cocktails come to go if you want them to.
B1 · Sip
A shoeshine with your drink
Finish below the street. At Sip, someone shines your shoes while you drink. Book it ahead, like Sangai.
Sip and Guzzle. That’s the S and the G.
The key
- Start at the top and work your way down.
- Book Sangai’s 6 p.m. seating, and Sip, ahead. Guzzle is walk-in.
- 1-7-8 Jinnan, Shibuya: about eight minutes on foot from Shibuya Station.
- Keep it for your first night in Tokyo.

Our verdict
One evening, four rooms, taken in order. The one you cannot enter makes the other three better.
Not for you if you won’t book ahead. The two floors worth the trip need a reservation.
