Step into Kamari in Tokyo, the energetic ninja-themed bar where everyone is welcome and good vibes are guaranteed. Run by the fabulous former model and LGBTQ+ activist Ayako Ichinose, this intimate space is all about creating a friendly, welcoming environment. Whether you’re catching up with old pals or making new ones, Kamari’s cozy layout makes conversation a breeze.
Open from 8 pm to 3 am (and extending to 5 am on Saturdays for the true night owls), Kamari is conveniently located just minutes from Shinjuku-sanchome Station. The bar's inclusive atmosphere is a magnet for lesbians, Trans, and queer women, but it truly embraces everyone on the sexual and gender identity spectrum.
With a bartender who occasionally dons a ninja costume (which adds another layer to the ninja theme), Kamari’s playful charm is irresistible. It’s more than just a bar; it’s a vibrant haven in Tokyo’s diverse nightlife scene, where every night promises a new adventure.
AiSOTOPE Lounge is one of the largest queer bars in Tokyo, and hosts women's only nights, so check their page for ladies events! Arty Farty and The Annex are both LGBTQ+ spots that are mixed and very friendly with women and trans people. Secret Tip - if you buy entrance into Arty Farty you can get into Annex for free! FTM BOIS BAR at Gold Finger is a great spot for Trans people on Monday nights and some Sundays of the month.
