Tanakaya (Mejiro - Liquor shop). 3953-8888

This spacious basement shop near Mejiro station is one of the best liquor shops in town. It's certainly number one when it comes to its selection of American microbrew beers, with dozens and dozens of brews that we haven't found anywhere else. They also stock an impressive choice of Japanese micros and Belgian craft beers, sake and awamori, Calvados and liqueurs and plenty more. Cash only.

Mejiro 3-4-14. (on Mejiro-dori just a few seconds west of Mejiro station) Open 11am-8pm. Closed Sundays.

Osakaya (Shinjuku - Liquor shop). 3354-2202

This conveniently located specialty shop carries 100 different Belgian beers, a handful of good Japanese microbrews, and more than 200 European wines.

Shinjuku 3-38-1, Lumine EST Shinjuku B1F. (very close to the East-Central exit of JR Shinjuku) Open 10:30am-9:30pm daily.

Shinanoya (Shinjuku Kabukicho - Liquor shop). 3204-2365

A good selection of wines and spirits and a dozen or so European beers at discount prices, plus random imported food items.

Kabukicho 1-12-9. (on the main central street, across from Tokyo Kaisen Ichiba) Open 11am-4am daily.

Nissin (Azabu-Juban - Retail). 3583-4586

Meat is Nissin's strong point, with over a dozen types of cold cuts, a cornucopia of sausages, and unusual items like pheasant, rabbit, and even kangaroo meat. And the third-floor wine shop is worth a visit in its own right - particularly for its wide choice of Australian and California wines in the under-Y2000 price range. [See FULL REVIEW.]

Higashi-Azabu 2-34-2. Open 9:30am-8pm daily.

National Den-en (Denenchofu - Retail). 3721-4161

This sister of the temporarily shuttered international supermarket National Azabu offers a similarly diverse selection of imported foods and wines. Despite their suburban location (midway between Denenchofu and Jiyugaoka stations), they deliver within most of the central-Tokyo area that was served by National Azabu.

Tamagawa-Denenchofu 2-6-21. Open 10am-8pm daily.
