The bar and lounge on the rooftop, known by the name of The Roof, is open to the public for a short period beginning on April 28 and running until January 9 in 2023. Customers can enjoy drinks and snacks, like wine and beer, and mocktails and cocktails. Bar hours are from 4:30 pm to 10 pm every night (from 5 pm only during August) and allow guests to view the sunset and Tokyo’s breathtaking skyline in the evening. To enhance the mood, the world-renowned producer and DJ Taku Takahashi also put together a set of music to enjoy the evening.

It is good to buy tickets in advance to ensure a comfortable sofa with city views. There is a limit of 50 minutes for every couch reservation. Tickets are available with a champagne or beverage package (4,500 yen per guest). Be aware that at least two guests are required to reserve a seat on the couch. If weather conditions are bad, The Roof will be shut.
