About this place
Tell the bartender what kind of drinks you like, then ask for a suggestion for your next glass. At BAR PROLOGUE, that way of choosing has made an impression on some guests. One visitor, new to cigars, says the bartender recommended a whisky to suit their taste and showed them how to light the cigar. Rather than arriving with a particular label in mind, you can let the flavours or drinking style that interest you guide your choice.
The whisky menu includes Bowmore 15 Years, Laphroaig 10 Years and The Macallan 18 Years, as well as a Talisker 10 Years highball. One guest who began with a gin and tonic says that, after mentioning they had already eaten, they were offered something refreshing. Whether you fancy a light cocktail after a meal or would rather take your time over a whisky, it may be worth telling the bartender what you’re in the mood for.
Fruit cocktails are also listed on the menu. One guest reports enjoying a drink made with strawberries from a farm in Osaka; on another visit, a plate of strawberries, persimmon and musk melon was served as an appetiser. These are appealing options for anyone drawn to fruit-based cocktails or seasonal fruit. As cigars are served here, bear that in mind if you are sensitive to smoke. Some guests have described enjoying cocktails or whisky alongside a cigar in the bar’s relaxed atmosphere.
