SINGAPORE'S
FIRST
HEARTLAND
IZAKAYA
Japanese Restaurant & Bar located at Kovan/Hougang
Welcome to Tachinomiya, Singapore's first heartland izakaya, where we serve up delicious delights with a big heart and a little quirk. Since our humble beginnings in 2015, we've stayed true to our simple yet significant promise: making great food, drinks, and service approachable while embracing the cozy and casual essence of traditional "tachi-nomi" (standing and drinking) culture from Japan. Though we've added chairs for your comfort, the spirit of communal enjoyment remains unchanged.
