Cozy Up with Oden and Hot Sake at a Secret Train Platform in Tokyo

Jan 29, 2026 at 12:00pm ~ Feb 01, 2026 at 5:00pm

If you love Japanese sake and nostalgic vibes, Oden and Hot Sake Station is an event you don’t want to miss!

From January 29 to February 1, JR Ryogoku Station’s elusive Train Platform 3—usually closed to the public—will transform into a Showa-era retro hot sake haven. Picture this: steamy oden, perfectly warmed sake, red lanterns and even kotatsu seating for the ultimate winter experience.

This is your chance to capture the cozy, old-school charm of Tokyo’s shitamachi culture. With its authentic izakaya-style setting, limited tickets and a track record of selling out fast, this one-of-a-kind pop-up is guaranteed to be a hit.

What’s Included:

Kotatsu box seat (for 4 people): ¥20,000
Starter kit: 10 tasting tickets, one serving of oden, Chichiku®
Session participation ticket: ¥3,500

First ticket sales: Dec 22, 12pm
Second ticket sales: Jan 8, 12pm
