Ueno gay bars include small counter spaces for drinks, conversation and karaoke. Some keep the focus on quiet conversation with background music; others combine snacks and singing. Bars also extend into neighbouring Yushima, offering options for an evening in an intimate setting rather than on a large dance floor.
