Shinsaibashi, Osaka
Casual Natural Wine in Shinsaibashi
Cradle is the casual neighbourhood natural wine bar that Shinsaibashi needed. The room is small and unfussy — bare wood, exposed brick, a long zinc bar — and the wine list rotates weekly with affordable European natural bottles.
The cooking is small bites — bread and butter, cheese, small Japanese plates. The bartenders are wine-led and will recommend by style. Prices are friendlier than the Kitashinchi wine bars.
The crowd is mid-thirties Shinsaibashi locals and visiting wine enthusiasts. Pair with the wider Osaka wine scene for a complete evening.
