About this place
Situated in Hanazono Badai-cho near JR Emmachi Station, Showa Shell is a neighbourhood bar where guests can enjoy karaoke and drinks in an easygoing, retro-tinged setting. Open from 20:00 at night until 3:00 the following morning, it serves as a convenient stop when moving on to a 2 or 3 spot during a night out. The karaoke setup is well-regarded for its solid acoustics, complete with stage-style smoke effects to help singers make the most of their favourite tracks.
The drink selection available at the counter and tables covers draft beer, Suntory Kakubin highballs, and a broad range of chuhai coolers, including lemon and Kyoho grape flavours. Cocktails featuring cassis or peach, wine, and classic shochu labels such as Nikaido and Kuro Kirishima round out the alcoholic lineup. For those taking a break from alcohol or focusing on the music, options like green tea, ginger ale, Calpis, and non-alcoholic beer let everyone drink at their own pace.
For get-togethers with friends, the bar offers combination all-you-can-drink and all-you-can-sing plans, alongside party-ready options such as 1.5-litre pitchers and tiered Cocalero bomb towers. Beyond sharing drinks around a group table, visitors can also chat across the counter with the friendly staff, enjoying an unhurried, unpretentious night.
