おつまみ専門店 uchi no ate（うちの肴）大阪 なんばマルイ店 at Namba Marui

Speciality otsumami snack shop in Namba Marui offering gift-worthy bar snacks.

Uchi no ate is an Osaka-born otsumami (snacks that pair with alcohol) specialist shop that opened its first permanent store on the first floor of Namba Marui in November 2024, following successful pop-up events at the same location. The brand was founded by a passionate drinker and snack enthusiast who set out to reinvent the traditional otsumami category, making it appealing to women as well as men, and to drinkers and non-drinkers alike. Popular items include shrimp hamayaki, mackerel jerky and large-pickled rakkyo, all crafted with attention to ingredients and manufacturing methods. The shop's concept is centred on the idea of snacks that make you want to say "try this" to someone else, using food as a means of connecting people. Staff known as otsumami meisters, who have passed the shop's own otsumami certification exam, are on hand to recommend products tailored to each customer's preferences and tastes. Customers can sample products in-store before purchasing, and the items are also available as attractively packaged gifts. Located on the ground floor of Namba Marui, just a short walk from Namba Station, uchi no ate is a convenient stop for visitors looking to bring home a distinctive Osaka souvenir or to find the perfect accompaniment to an evening drink. Its fresh approach to a traditional category makes it a standout among the department store's offerings.
