EST. 2026 · Susukino, Sapporo
A proper British pub, far from home.
In the heart of Susukino, Sapporo.
An authentic British pub · NEAR AND FAR
Near, and Far
Near, and far from home.
In the neon glow of Susukino, a single door opens onto somewhere else entirely — an English evening. Dark timber throughout, a proper pub counter. Not the loud, trend-chasing kind of place, but the quiet confidence only time can brew. That is what NEAR AND FAR chose to be.
The Guinness and the food, both kept to their authentic form. And come the weekend, we share the match with all the warmth of a real pub. Neither a mere bar nor a sports bar — this is a British pub, here in Sapporo.
Neither a mere bar nor a sports bar —
a British pub, in Sapporo.
The Bar
Perfection is in the details.
To pour Guinness at its very best, we rebuilt the cellar environment itself. Precisely governed temperature, and the hand of the master pour. Together, they make a difference you can taste in a single sip.
From the Kitchen
The British table, as it truly is.
Where British pub fare is so often reduced to a light snack, NEAR AND FAR serves it plate by plate, in its authentic form — including dishes long loved back home yet rarely found in Japan. Not nibbles, but a proper meal. Please, take your time and sit a while.
Richly marbled smoked salmon — fragrant, and made to lift a good drink.
