Renowned as “the coolest bowling alley in Japan,” and under its unique concept of “a bowling alley inside a restaurant,” Sasazuka Bowl (a.k.a. Sasabo) is not just a bowling alley, but it also functions as a place of social interaction for grown-ups where you can enjoy both tasty food and high-quality music.

Its stylish interior features neon lights and vintage-looking details throughout. The sophisticated atmosphere arouses excitement as soon as you step inside.

Enjoy a unique bowling experience in the neon-lit space.

Another reason that makes Sasabo popular is its food items that are made with great attention to detail. Among them, we especially recommend their mouth-watering pizzas that are baked in a special oven. A wide variety of pizzas, including classic Margherita as well as Veggie and Vegan Veggie that are catered to health-conscious people, satisfy both the minds and stomachs of customers. They also serve a wide range of alcoholic beverages. Don’t forget to try locally brewed Sasazuka Beer too.

The food menu includes a wide variety of items including their famous pizzas, as well as French fries, other side dishes, and desserts.

With over 50 years in business, the biggest reason that makes Sasabo different from other bowling alleys is its deep connection with music. The facility is equipped with professional grade music equipment and a DJ booth, so you can enjoy bowling and food while also enjoying live concerts and DJ performances on certain days.

Escape from your daily life and enjoy bowling while vibing to high-quality music.

Sasabo is also great in terms of accessibility. You can get there easily because the town of Sasazuka is only about five minutes from Shinjuku and about 15 minutes from Shibuya. If you are looking to have a unique local experience, Sasabo would be a perfect option for your itinerary.

If you would like to enjoy its true charm, you should go there when there is a music event. Visit their official website and check their schedule to see if there are any events during your stay in Japan. Even if you are not a serious bowler, it will definitely be an unforgettable memory if you love music or if you want to experience the latest Japanese trend in person.
