    A standard American style bar, full liquor shelf and a decent cocktail menu. Pizza is very Wa-fu, but I was pleasantly surprised by the nachos using actual cheese. You can challenge the staff to darts to attempt to beat their high scores. Only actual qualm was how long it took for food we ordered to come out. We finished our drinks before our first order came out, and we ordered fries that took at least 20 minutes to come out.

    Nice bartenders and affordable drinks. You can play darts here too. Very near the Namba Station, and a bit of walking from Shinsaibashi. The owner is super friendly, and extremely patient when a rowdy Osaka crowd is in the bar 😂

    This bar is awesome! I wish I went her the first night I was in Osaka. I was warmly welcomed the second I walked in the door. The owner is a native Californian and speaks perfect Japanese. The bar was full of local Japanese that like to learn English. I spent several hours talking to the bartender and talking to locals that he introduced me to. I can't recommend this place enough for having a good time and learning about the local culture. I will definitely go back here the first night I am in Osaka.

    expensive. Although I only drank craft beer... which were overpriced. Friendly staff, though.

    (Translated by Google) There is a foreign master of Kansai dialect. There is also a dart. (Original) 関西弁ペラペラの外国人のマスターがいます。 ダーツもあります。

    My family and I had a wonderful time in Japan and little long beach had my trip even sweeter experience. Chad (the proprietor of little long beach) was friendly and welcoming. I’d definitely stay at the same hotel just so that i can go to little long beach every night. Chad, your cones worked !!!

    (Translated by Google) There are not so many menu items such as dishes, but there are many kinds of alcohol, and if you ask for something outside menu, you can make it Shop owner Chad's character is very good and cozy (Original) 料理などのメニュー数はそれほど多くないがお酒の種類は多く、メニュー外のものもお願いすれば作ってもらえる 店主のチャドの人柄が大変良く居心地の良いお店

  • 3/5 Yamauchi S. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Good bar for young people and foreigners. Owners, masters, and masterless are all good, but unfortunately it's not a store where customers grow, so it wasn't my favorite. (Original) 若者、外人にはいいバーです。オーナーもマスターも、マスタレスもいいが、残念ながら客が育てる店でないので、私の好みではなかった。

    (Translated by Google) noisy. It is more exciting than uncomfortable. He knows how to make a decent cocktail, and has a pretty good whiskey list. This is a place to have fun if you want. (Original) 시끄럽다. 불편하다기 보다는 흥겹다. 적당히 괜찮은 칵테일을 내놓을 줄 알고, 꽤 괜찮은 위스키 리스트를 갖고 있다. 원한다면 즐겁게 이야기 나눌 수 있는 곳이다.

  • 5/5 茶々丸 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The owner, Chad, is cheerful and fun and will always be happy. The shop is open and easy to spend as you get to feel the illusion that is not in Japan. And drinks are delicious. (It's natural, but it makes it delicious and delicious) It ’s so much fun that I want to go there if I ’m close from home (Original) オーナーのチャドさんが明るくて楽しくていつ行ってもハッピーな気持ちになれる。 異文化交流させてもらえるし、日本ではない錯覚に陥るくらいお店は開放的で過ごしやすいです。 そして、ドリンクが美味しくいただけます。(当たり前なんだけど、けちらずきちんと美味しく作ってくれてる) 自宅から近かったら通いたいくらい楽しい。

    Well well, first time in Osaka and the first bar I’ve found. Holy dam has it been an incredible time. Plenty of cold ones to choose from and a big spacious atmosphere to have a good time. Alpha Chad runs the bar like his namesake, will return when I can

    Ich bin gestern mit Zufall dort eingekehrt und war überrascht wie klasse man dort empfangen wird. Großartig ist auch, wie charmant Chad japanische und auswärtige Gäste zueinander bringt und das gequassel los geht. Ich hatte großen Spaß und werde an meinen letzten Abend in Japan, 100% wieder dort sein.

    This place is NOT a gaijin bar, it’s intended to cater to local clientele. But it is gaijin friendly! That’s a really good thing! The owner is from the US but fluent in Japanese and he strikes an excellent balance of providing his Japanese clientele with a great experience while also being super welcoming to foreigners. The best thing about it is he serves as kind of a go between that helps both groups mix with each other in a friendly, non pushy, and ultimately educational way. He gently educated me and my friend in how to be better visitors to Japan and even ended up being a catalyst for us to meet a really awesome local who showed us a side of Osaka we never would have seen. Chad is distinctly American but has respectfully adapted to his new country… he’s the closest thing to the bar owner from Casablanca that I’ve seen in real life. This is a great place for food, drink, and company for Japanese and foreigners alike! Also he’s ridiculously good at darts so be careful about challenging him…

    Best bar in Osaka! Chad is a very charismatic dude, he is very great at keeping you entertained and connecting you with others around the bar. He makes everyone feel like they are hanging out with old friends, and has a wicked and wide selection of alcohol. Couldn't recommend this place more!

  • 5/5 Arjin van A. 5 months ago on Google • 8 reviews
    Love this bar. American owner but 30 years resident in Japan. Really tries to connect people, both local and foreign. Much appreciated because it's hard to get in touch with Japanese...

  • 5/5 Todd S. 6 months ago on Google • 7 reviews
    I spent 6+ months living in Osaka this year and Little Long Beach was one of my favorite parts of the experience. I only speak a little Japanese, so my ideal place was always one that was mostly locals but with maybe some visitors and hopefully English-friendly. LLB was a great fit. Chad, the owner, is from Southern California (hence the "Long Beach") but he's lived in Osaka for 20 years and speaks Japanese. The regular crowd at LLB is fun and interested locals- mostly Japanese but with lots of other nationalities as well. There is a great drink selection and I really enjoyed the limited bar menu- the pizza and quesadillas hit the spot and paired well with the highballs and chu-highs. Chad like introducing people to each other and encouraging conversation. Often, he volunteered me to join in a game of darts with locals and I always had a great time. I had so many great conversations at LLB and made many friends. I can wait to go back as soon as I can. I recommend it to people who want to try to practice a little Japanese, too. You can usually find a local who'd also like to practice their English. Little Long Beach is a great spot and conveniently located in Namba. Stop by and tell Chad that Toddo-san sent you!

    Fantastic bar with super friendly English speaking staff. An absolute blast

  • 5/5 Leonie G. 4 years ago on Google
    Fantastic bar in Namba My daughter and I found this bar within hours of arriving in Japan - what a welcoming experience! Chad and Ali and other staff were incredibly friendly, as were the locals, and they recommended great things to do in Osaka. We visited again and were treated to champagne (a lot of champagne!) for a birthday. Thank you guys!! All we can do in return is to promise to visit again and to send our friends there!

    Was in Osaka Japan for the very first time with my son last October and stumbled upon this very cool bar... Chad, proprietor of little Long Beach made us feel totally welcome and is a great interpreter between the English and Japanese languages. We were in Osaka for 6 nights and went there every night for the great food and great selections of liquors, including some very tasty Japanese Whiskeys.. I highly recommend this place as a must go while in Osaka 🤙

  • 5/5 DOUGLAS LLOYD P. 5 years ago on Google
    Bar is actually owned by an American from long beach. Really cool guy paid equal amount of attention to us as tourist and to his Japanese customers. His japanese is fluent. Prices are a bit high but i was glad to pay it for good atmosphere and a solid conversation, plus I was drinking a nice lager.

  • 5/5 Dawn W. 7 years ago on Google
    From the moment I walked in to little long beach I was made extremely welcome by Chad the bar owner who introduced himself which I felt was so genuine! My boyfriend and I expected to stay for one drink but ended up staying till close because we were introduced to some locals and had the absolute best time with them, Chad & his staff. Also the cocktails here do not dissapoint at all! 😁. This place really deserves some recognition, so if you're in Osaka and have some time definitely check this place out I promise you'll probably love it as much as I do or possibly even more 😁

  • 5/5 Cameron K. 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely a must go when in Osaka. I met a lot of great people here and had wonderful conversations. It’s a place where locals and foreigners alike come to hang out, making it such a good atmosphere to be in. I highly recommend this place to anyone who plans on visiting Osaka. I will absolutely come back here whenever I return to Japan.

  • 5/5 Alexander R. 5 years ago on Google

    Chad und Jennifer haben uns ausgesprochen herzlich empfangen. Beide sind gebürtige Amerikaner, die Ōsaka als ihre Heimat gewählt haben. Sie sprechen fließend Englisch und Japanisch und haben uns mit japanischen Stammgästen bekannt gemacht. Wir haben uns toll unterhalten und die japanische Kultur und Gastfreundschaft auf eine sehr freundschaftliche, liebevolle Art kennengelernt. Zum Schluss haben wir uns mit unseren neuen japanischen Freunden herzlich umarmt, das war eine Erfahrung, die wir unser Leben lang nicht vergessen werden. Wir hoffen, irgendwann wieder von Österreich nach Japan zu kommen und unsere Freunde wiedersehen zu können. Ein absolutes must-see, wenn man Zeit in Ōsaka verbringt! Danke Chad und Jennifer! (: Laura & Phil

  • 4/5 comcom c. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It's quiet. I've rarely seen foreigners, and there are no single malt whiskeys like locals use, and bartenders don't know much about whiskey. (Original) 한산하다 외국인은 거의 본적없고 현지인들이 많이 이용하는듯 싱글몰트 위스키 종류는 많이 없고 바텐더가 위스키에 대해서 잘알지는 못하는듯 싶다.

    Great laid back place in the heart of osaka japan with a great guy chad who is very welcoming, I actually live in manila philippines but I where doing a visa run to japan to renew my visa for the philippines. Thanks chad giving me great info about japan and keep making this great cocktails :-) Hope to see you again. Alex

  • 5/5 Alexander T. 5 years ago on Google
    English speaking bar in the heart of Osaka. Ideal setting to be introduced to locals by Chad (amazing bartender from LA, fluent Japanese speaker)! Would recommend everybody, good price as well.

  • 5/5 T C. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) This is a bar with a small box at a roadside store, where you can feel more delicious and hospitality than chara than Americans who can speak Japanese make great cocktails and shots! Payment is Paypay etc. and there is no additional fee (Kureka is 10%). It may be just right to entertain foreigners. Master Chad is a cheap person who talks with Kansai jokes, who don't know how serious they are, but of course I think he is a wonderful person to interact with with respect. (Original) 路面店で箱も小さくはないバーで、日本語できるアメリカ人がステキなカクテルとかショットとか作ってくれる思ってる以上にチャラさより美味しさとホスピタリティを感じられる店です! 支払いはPaypayなどで追加手数料もかからず(クレカが10%)楽しく飲めるいい店です。 海外の人を接待するなどにもちょうどいいかも。 マスターのチャドさんはどこまで本気かわからない関西ジョークも混ぜて話してくれる気安い人ですが、もちろんリスペクトの感情で接するべき素敵な人だと思います。

  • 5/5 배유민 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I went to 2 ~ 30 bars in Korea, but it was tasted as high as 3 ~ 4th among them. The second thing is that the bartender was so kind and skillful. Do not worry if you do not have a menu, especially if you request an order that is not on the menu, you can make a cocktail right away. I also enjoyed recommending instant-making cocktails. The spicy gingerbread cocktail which is suitable for Korean taste was a very pleasant experience. It is also near Namba Station, so if you are on time, please stop by and drink two or three cups. (Original) 한국에서도 2~30군데의 바를 다녀봤지만 그 중에서도 3~4번째로 높을 정도로 맛있었습니다. 분위기 같은건 둘째 치더라도 바텐더가 너무 친절하고 솜씨도 좋았습니다. 특히나 메뉴판에 없는 주문이더라도 요청한다면 칵테일을 바로바로 만들어서 주니 메뉴가 없다고 해도 걱정하지는 마십시오. 또한 즉석 제조 칵테일을 추천받는 것도 즐거웠급니다. 한국인 입맛에 맞는 매운 진저 칵테일은 정말 즐거운 경험이었습니다. 남바역 근처이기도 하니 시간 되시는 분은 꼭 들려서 두세잔 마시고 가시기를 권합니다.

  • 5/5 Matthew D. 5 years ago on Google
    Great Bar! Atmosphere is super chill and great for conversation with new people. Ask Chad to make you a Long Island ice tea! They’re awesome. Definitely recommending and coming back!
