This month's spotlight venue

Pa'Can

Osaka / Namba & Shinsaibashi
Bar & Cafe

Choose freely from over 100 types of canned foods; a fun, new type of bar with more than just alcohol

This bar, with premises on the first floor of a building in the Soemoncho neighborhood of Osaka-Minami, has started its third year in the most highly competitive area in Osaka and is extremely popular with those in the know. Especially with the general character of the Minami area, it can be difficult to enter most bars based on first glance, but the open feeling of the all-glass wall and the casual atmosphere make it easy for anyone to swing by and have a drink.

"Canned foods" provide an even more casual atmosphere

One thing that must be mentioned when introducing this bar is canned foods (starting at 300 yen). With the counter as the main area, this bar features a wide variety of canned foods displayed all over the place, any of which you can eat right there in the bar. From popular canned foods such as "Sea Chicken grilled fatty tuna" and "Inaba tuna and Thai curry" to more rare items not usually seen in home kitchens, like "Fukukan (canned blowfish)", "Ankou no kimo (anglerfish liver)", and "Sakuraniku Yamato-ni (boiled horse meat)", it's fun just checking out the lineup of canned goods.

Genuine cocktails and other alcoholic drinks

As for drinks, draft beer is 500 yen, with cocktails such as gin and tonic (800 yen) and salty dog (880 yen) starting at 700 yen. Even many people who just stopped in out of curiosity towards the canned foods end up as regular customers at the shot bar thanks to the bar's atmosphere and the staff's natural manner of comfortably interacting with the customers. They've stated their future goals as buffing up both the bar side as well as the can-based food menu in order to provide an easy-to-enter, relaxing bar.
