A second Bloody Angle Dougen Tong location opened its doors in a back ally in Shibuya. The entertainment establishment is a hybrid between a café that sells caffeinated beverages, sandwiches, refreshments, and even spaghetti from 8 am until 8 pm. Thereafter, the establishment transitions into a bar, with a cohesive cocktail menu, as well as a specially curated record selection. The records are playfully displayed behind the bar.
Bloody Angle Dougen Tong boasts a cozy and elegant interior, which was designed by Japanese graphic artist Yoshirotten and which boldly contributes to the ambiance of the contemporary café-bar hybrid.
Launched by MC/Producer Ryuzo, Bloody Angle Dougen Tong also features merchandise that helps round the experience. This includes tumblers, mugs, lighters, hoodies, key chains, t-shirts, and more.
