Dotonbori Craftbeer Brewery Namba CITY at Namba City

Namba City brewpub pouring Dotonbori Beer alongside kushikatsu and chanko nabe courses.

Dotonbori Craftbeer Brewery Namba CITY is a brewpub on the first floor of Namba City's south building, pairing its own Dotonbori Beer with Osaka's beloved kushikatsu. The house beer is a 100-percent-malt, no-adjunct top-fermented ale brewed with Osaka water and designed to pair with washoku, and a three-glass tasting set lets drinkers compare styles. The food menu spans kushikatsu from 132 yen a stick, seasonal skewers, seafood chanko nabe courses and a popular lunch set of large prawn fry and croquette. Private rooms of various sizes suit groups of three to 50, and the venue runs lunch and dinner with all-you-can-drink course options. For a brewpub meal that genuinely fits Osaka's food culture, this is a rewarding stop. Its combination of local beer, kushikatsu and chanko nabe makes it a flexible choice for both quick lunches and longer evenings.
