Kumagaya is a half hour train ride from Tokyo by Shinkansen bullet train.
It can be a base of sightseeing in surrounding regions, such as Chichibu, Omiya, Nagano or Nikko.
We found the city’s tourist bureau compiles a nice list of evening dining options on its website in English. http://www.oideyo-kumagaya.com/kumanomi-en/
In the residential and industrial town, many Izakaya(casual dining & bar) options are available mainly around Kumagaya train station.
The website introduce many options with basic information, categorizing by the characteristics. We strongly believe that the site is useful for those who visit and enjoy Kumagaya.
Enjoy and drink like a local in Kumagaya!
