Did shuriken throwing and samurai sword experience. Both great fun. Owner friendly, informative and helpful.
5Drinks and throwing stars 🍺 🥷 ⭐️
Ninja Cafe and Bar was amazing! We stopped in for a mid-day drink and participated in the throwing star experience. What an awesome time. The owner of the bar was absolutely amazing as well….. he was friendly since the moment we got inside, he talked with us, explained the menu, and showed us how to properly throw the stars. What a gray memory for me and my groups of friends during our visit to Takayama. I highly recommend stopping here!
5Great themed activities and drinks
Great owner who showed us how to do the activities and the special ninja highball was good. Everything was themed to make the experience more enjoyable.

About Takayama
Takayama, in the mountains of Gifu Prefecture, is a well-kept Edo-period town of dark wooden merchant houses, sake breweries and a morning market.
Takayama lies in the Hida region of the Japanese Alps, in a high basin ringed by mountains. Its old town, Sanmachi Suji, keeps three streets of dark timber merchant houses from the Edo period, with latticed fronts and sake breweries marked by cedar-ball signs hanging from the eaves. Takayama Jinya, the former magistrate's office, is one of the last of its kind in Japan.
