Tiny eatery with great atmosphere and a good range of very tasty food. Definitely recommended. If it looks closed or abandoned, don't give up ... it's 3 flights of stairs up to the door. Really fun intimate bar with a rock themed interior. I really enjoyed the messages plastered around from travelers all over the world. The atmosphere here is amazing and everyone will enjoy the music! Bom is hands down the best guy we have met on our trip so far, he made us feel welcome and introduced us to some Australian slang he had picked up over the years which reminded us of home! Amazing service and great food, I would highly recommend this place to any tourist passing through Hiroshima. Thank you koba :) Koba was a unique find. We arrived just after opening and were lucky to get seats. It's a small place, so several people had to be turned away. We had to share a table with other people, but it was great to talk with everyone. The music was great as were the drinks and food (try the mochi bacon!). The owner was lovely. Even though we weren't sitting at the bar, he came over to chat and greet everyone in their own language. He has learned all the slang from other visitors.

The interior is super cool and unique. The food was very nice, just for these reasons I liked it. The owner Bom made my experience special I felt more welcomed than I have in any establishment in my life. the lady working was also fantastic. I think this is the best bar I've ever been too. Those guys are the best
