Nightlife in Beppu City

Bepperz

Before heading out for a night on the town, Bepperz is great place to grab dinner and drink. They have a few different menu items to choose from. Their specialty is their reimen noodles, which are served in a cold broth, similar to Korean naengmyeon. The noodles are topped with an egg, slices of pork belly, and a little bit of kimchi. Bepperz also specializes in toriten, a fried chicken dish prepared in the tempura style.

Izakaya Pubs on Yasaka Street

Izakaya pubs are an integral part of Japanese nightlife. Not only do they offer cheap beer, whisky, and sake, they are also known for their expansive menus that contain just about any kind of dish you can imagine. Yasaka Street in Beppu is home to many izakaya pubs, so you can try a few to find the right atmosphere for you.

One of the most popular dishes served in izakaya restaurants is yakitori, a chicken dish cooked on a stick over hot coals while being brushed with various sauces. Izakaya pubs usually have things like yakitori, sushi, pizza, pasta, and salad on their menus, but they also tend to have a few interesting (or “challenging”) items as well, such as cartilage and tendon, for those with more adventurous tastes.
