The Vanguard of Fukuoka’s New Nightlife – Food, Drinks, and More!

Fukuoka is constantly changing and while the well-known neon signage and yatai of Nakasu are much loved by residents and visitors alike, they are far from the only things the area has to offer. Nowadays there are more and more locations for those seeking something a little different from the norm.

In December of 2022 the 010 Building added itself to this prestigious list. Offering guests unique cuisine and forms of entertainment, the building is attracting attention not only from Fukuoka, but from the rest of Kyushu even internationally as a center of a burgeoning new nightlife culture. 

An exquisite space created by renowned chefs and bartenders

 
Inside [GohGan]

Diners can expect high-end comestibles prepared by some of the best in the business. GohGan is the first physical establishment created through the collaboration of two renowned owner chefs. One is Mr. Tsuyoshi Fukuyama, the owner chef of La Maison de la Nature Goh, a Michelin-starred restaurant in Fukuoka and Saga versions of the Michelin Guide. He has also been frequently selected in "Asia's 50 Best Restaurants”. The other is Mr. Gaggan Anand, the owner chef of Gaggan Anand, an Indian restaurant in Bangkok that has clinched the top spot four times in "Asia's 50 Best Restaurants”. In addition, Mr. Fukuyama runs his own restaurant inside the facility which is simply titled Goh.

For those in the mood for an aperitif, consider visiting BAR010, produced by world renowned bartender Mr. Michito Kaneko. With an open view of the adjacent Naka River, BAR010 provides guests with the opportunity to enjoy their unique drinks with a stellar view. 

The interior is spacious and stylistically mature. Late at night, the bar also offers pleasant music as a DJ bar.
Developed specifically for Bar 010 by Mr. Michito Kaneko: The Signature Cocktail 010.

Enjoy your meal while being treated to a feast for the eyes

Bar 010’s beverages and GohGan’s victuals come together in a symphony for the senses in the next part of the building, Theater 010. 

Featuring performers who plied their trade in Cirque du Soleil and appeared on Got Talent, the performance within is a sight to behold. It is easy to lose oneself in the mesmerizing art of this immersive theater! 
 

A 10-minute show is performed every 30 minutes.

All aspects of the experience are certifiably world-class, from food and drink to the performance itself. In spite of this, the theater features no dress code and the affordable table charge of 2,200 yen makes it easy to casually swing on by.

In a final note, we would be remiss not to mention the unique design of the building itself! Illuminated in contrasting blue and red lights, the spiral-shape of the building and all of the various facilities inside were designed and built by a top architect. 

When night falls, the captivating interplay of light emanating from the 010 Building inspires the city and has become an exciting new face in the world of entertainment in Fukuoka. For those searching for a new way to enjoy the night look no further.

A brewery beneath a hotel? Try freshly made beer on tap!

 

For those who wish to try fresh beer made in-house, our next destination comes with the highest possible recommendations. In Shimokawabata guests will find a beer brewer, right beneath Hotel Okura Fukuoka of all places! Founded in 1999, this underground brewery makes their own fresh Hakata Draft and delivers them to restaurants in the area. 

The “Brouwer” Beer is made by beer craftsmen and has a fresh taste

In addition to the four standard beers, Kölsch, Alt, Stout, and Weizen, there are also special beers available only for a limited time. 

 
Pizza here is made with beer and yeast for beer making added to the dough. The exterior is crispy and interior nice and fluffy!

We offer a variety of a la carte menu items that go well with beer, such as pizza baked in our pizza oven, cured ham, and ajilo. Beer freshly made at the brewery is nothing short of exceptional!

Beer is also available at the hotel store meaning you can even take some home as a souvenir.
