It looks like “Izakaya Tora” is coming back along the Imazu Nishi Line, in front of Hankyu Imazu Station.
(This info was provided by Maru-san, Norichanzu-san, and KAZU & Monchan @ Nishitsu SP)
Here it is↓
There was a sign that said 居酒屋 虎
🐯
“居酒屋 虎” was originally a long-running izakaya in Imazu, known as something of a sacred spot for Hanshin Tigers fans. Last year, it relocated and opened right in front of JR Koshienguchi Station together with “寿ず家”, but it looks like it’s now coming back to Imazu again〜
Here it is on the map↓
The address is 11-13 Tsutohotsu-cho, Nishinomiya, Hyogo Prefecture.
Around “Izakaya Tora” in Imazu
Across the street is Hankyu Imazu Station.
If you go this way, you’ll find places like Chinese Restaurant Toen, FamilyMart, and Kyo Shunsai Sabuchan, leading toward the Naruo Mikage Line.
If you go in the opposite direction, you’ll find places like Pretzel, then pass under the Hanshin Main Line toward National Route 43.
According to Google Street View, Izakaya Tora seems to have operated in this exact same location until around 2017. It looks like interior work is currently underway〜
This photo was taken on 2/24 by Nishitsu reader Norichanzu. The menu is already up.
- Hormone
- Egawa no Mimiyaki
- Kanemoto Steak
Looks like we’ll be able to enjoy those nostalgic Imazu specialties again〜😄
Finally
We weren’t able to confirm the current business status of the Koshienguchi location. Sorry🙏 If we find out anything else, we’ll write about it〜
※Maru-san, Norichanzu-san, and KAZU & Monchan @ Nishitsu SP, thank you for the information!!
