So I was very surprised to see the shift it went through when I visited recently. There are a few big spots here and there, and certainly many more smaller clubs/bars hidden inside the buildings. But the lively street nightlife was completely gone.
Roppongi has always been a place for foreigners - COVID really killed all those places - and it hasn’t come back yet…. Don’t get me wrong there is still a late night scene - but nothing like it used to be - or in the bubble economy….
