Kyoto Beer Lab

I was first told that none of the beers were vegan, just some of the food. then the person I spoke consulted with someone else, then told me that all beers were vegan. obviously she thought everyone was laktose, but another employee told her that it wasn't the case. I am not sure that I would go back, although I really appreciate that the selected vegan food options. the load is stylish and I had previously admired the building at the walk. updated by previous review on 2019-05-01

Okay so we live in Seattle and are used to drinking really good beer. This place had amazing beer! Happy to see vegan snacks on the menu clearly labeled. We got a vegan wine stew to share. It was just okay but the beer made up for it.

We were in Kyoto for two nights and went here, well, both nights. The bartenders are really nice, and the craft beer is excellent. They have an English menu with clearly marked vegan and vegetarian options. We only had the fries as a snack (which were fresh made and delicious) but saw a few other vegan snacks and one entree on the menu. Go for the beer, stay for the friendly atmosphere and good music!

Really nice beer with great staff members that serve you the best and an owner with such a spiritReally happy to meet all of them and enjoy the vibe, great music, great atmosphere and good edamame's (vegan) I had with accompany my food Enjoy and go for that place, truly great!!!

I would give this place 5/5 if I could. Delicious beer (I particularly enjoyed the green tea ale and the Sucker punch sour) available for 700 yen half pints or 1000 yen pints. Flights of three beers are also available for 1400 yen. Most importantly, all food items are labeled vegetarian, vegan, or neither. As for food, I ordered the vegetable sticks with sesame dip and the French fries. The vegetables included cucumber, bell pepper, daikon radish, carrot, and a single cherry tomato. The sesame dip (vegan) was great. Appears to be mostly sesame paste (nerigoma), but it worked wonderfully. The French fries were a huge surprise. In a country with rather sub-par fries, these were great. A fairly small serving, but really thick, salty, and delicious.
