is golden gai actually fun alone or does everyone just pretend it is?

going to tokyo solo and everyone keeps recommending golden gai. but every video makes the bars look absolutely tiny 😭 is it actually easy to talk to people there if you're alone? or am i about to spend 2000 yen sitting silently next to three strangers

Some places have cover charges so check before you sit down.

just don't walk into the first place you see

Do bartenders usually speak English there?

ngl half the fun is opening a random door and finding out what kind of night you're about to have
