01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Tucked into the Kajicho neighborhood of Kanda, THE R.C. GATE Kanda offers an easygoing British pub setting suited to an after-work drink or an unhurried dinner. Pours range from Victorian Alt, a craft beer brewed exclusively by Musashino Brewery, to the crisp, house-crafted R.C. Original Highball. An early-evening happy hour also welcomes those dropping by for a drink before the peak hours.
Traditional and Inventive Pub Fare
The food menu centers on British pub favorites alongside creative house variations. Highlights include slow-cooked homemade beef sirloin roast beef finished with a rich Madeira sauce, and R.C.-style fish and chips served in a crisp batter with rosemary-seasoned potatoes. Smaller plates also feature prominently, such as chili bean potatoes with a lingering kick, spiced coronation chicken salad, and standard platters of prosciutto and salami.
Distinctive Gin and Tonics and Cocktails
Cocktails draw on British elements and playful flavour combinations. Signature gin and tonics include No.1, an herbal, refreshing pour inspired by Britain's classic Pimm's No. 1, and the tart, berry-driven VeryBerry. Other specialty drinks include the Double Decker, themed after London, and the Espresso Tea Martini, layered with Earl Grey notes. Whiskies also round out the bar, with single malts like Bowmore, Laphroaig, Hakushu, and Yamazaki poured neat, on the rocks, or in highballs.
From Counter Stools to Full-Floor Gatherings
The first floor features counter and bar seating ideal for solo diners seeking a quiet glass, with a relaxed, low-key atmosphere. Upstairs on the second floor, tables and booths accommodate casual dining with friends, set-course gatherings with all-you-can-drink packages, or complete private floor hire.
