Since I had some time before my dinner reservation, I decided to drop by this bar to pass the time.
At the entrance, the stylish sign reading “Orchid Bar” caught my eye — a touch of retro charm wrapped in refined elegance.
Stepping inside felt like entering another world. The lighting was dim overall, but the bar counter was dramatically lit, casting a spotlight on the bottles lined up like pieces of art. It created a chic, composed atmosphere — a classic bar with a sense of quiet sophistication.
Beyond the comfort of the space itself, what truly elevated the experience was the attentive care from both the bartender and the waiter. Their subtle gestures and thoughtful service made the setting feel genuinely premium.
My first drink was a glass of G.H.Mumm Grand Cordon champagne. Poured with precision, it produced a delicate stream of fine bubbles that delighted the eye. As I took a sip, a floral aroma gently enveloped me. Though dry, the champagne lingered with a fruity finish — a blissful first glass.
For the second round, I chose a white wine from France’s Loire Valley: Sancerre. In contrast to the champagne, this wine offered a refreshing, mineral-rich bouquet. It didn’t have the visual drama of bubbles, but its quiet presence spoke volumes — another deeply satisfying glass.
Next time, I think I’ll try one of their original cocktails!

ディナーの予約まで時間があったので、時間潰しがてらこちらのバーへ。
入口にはおしゃれなOrchid Barの文字。
少しレトロな感じがしつつも品がある。
お店の中に入るとそこは別世界。
室内の照明はかなり暗めだがバーカウンターには強めな照明があたり棚に並べられたボトルがまるでアートのよう。
シックで落ち着いた正統派なバーカウンターを演出。
空間の心地よさはもちろん、バーテンダーとウェイターの細やかな気配りが際立ち、まさにプレミアムな空間を演出。
1杯目はシャンパン、G.H.Mumm Grand Cordon。
完璧な注ぎ方できめ細やかな泡が立ち上がり、目を楽しませてくれる。
口に運ぶと華やかな香りがふわりと包み込んでドライながらも最後までフルーティな余韻が続く至福の一杯。
2杯目はフランス ロワール地方の白ワイン、Sancerre。
こちらは一転して、爽やかでミネラル感のある香りが印象的。
シャンパンと違い泡の演出という派手さはないものの、静けさの中でもしっかりと語りかけてくれる至福の一杯。
今度はオリジナルカクテルを試してみようかな。
馳走様でした！
