Summer is coming!!
There are a lot of summer attractions such as fireworks festivals, going to the beach, and BBQs in Osaka. And if you’re a big fan of beer, why not go to beer gardens? Beer garden is a place where you can drink various beers with tasty foods under the sky during summer. Cold beer refreshes your sweaty body during the daytime and makes you comfortable at night time.
These days more and more beer gardens open in a variety of spots such as rooftops of buildings and riverside in Japan. Now I’m going to introduce the 5 best beer gardens in Osaka.

Did you find somewhere you want to try?
In my opinion, I recommend Senri Hankyu Hotel Poolside Beer Garden because it has a lot of interesting events during the beer garden season. You could get a more unique and exciting experience. I also like drinking during day time under the sun as I can feel hotness and cool down my body with a cold beer at the same time.
