A place glowing in the back alleys

Pub Old Fashioned is an Irish pub in the back streets of Nishikimachi, Tomakomai City. On nights with the comings and goings you would expect of a port town, an after-work drink, a brief stop on the way through town, and meeting up with friends naturally come together.

Whether the reason to open the door is different for each guest, conversation loosens up between the wooden counter and the soft lighting. We continue to make that kind of time part of the daily scenery.

The culture of the Irish pub

An Irish pub is not simply a place to gather for alcohol. It has long been loved as a place where local people stop by, exchange words across generations, and share the atmosphere of the town.

Pub Old Fashioned also values letting first-time visitors spend their time at ease. It is a place where seats connect not by whether you are a regular, but by how you want to enjoy the night.

A drink born from conversation

From an exchange like, "How are you feeling today?", we may suggest a whiskey or a cocktail. In addition to the pleasure of choosing a familiar drink, an order that takes shape as we talk is part of this shop's character.

From Czech Pilsner Urquell beer, a wide selection of whiskies, non-alcoholic cocktails, to house-roasted coffee, we offer a range that lets both drinkers and non-drinkers spend time at the same table.

Beer and Whiskey

From your first drink to a glass to savor slowly, we guide you through the differences in aroma and weight to suit the conversation.

Cocktails that match your mood

While asking about your tastes and how you're feeling that day, we can also make drinks with a slight twist on the classics.

An Option for Nights Without Drinking

Non-alcoholic cocktails and Irish coffee let you choose how to spend the night, without forcing anything.

A Night That Continues with the Community

With blues and jazz live sets, seasonal drink fairs, and ties to the local community FM station, this place naturally becomes a gathering point for neighborhood conversation. The conversational ease the owner has cultivated on the radio lives on in the bar’s atmosphere.

We're open from 8:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m., and closed on Thursdays. With 25 seats inside, both local regulars and people on business trips or sightseeing can enjoy the night at their own pace.
