For hostess clubs (kyabakura) and other bars where staff sit with guests, Mie's ordinance allows opening until 1 a.m. only in named districts. Appended Table 2 lists Nishi-Shinchi, Suwasakaemachi and Nishiura 1-chome in Yokkaichi, Daimon in Tsu, the Atago-machi area of Matsusaka, and Ichinoki 2-chome, Oseko 2-chome and nearby blocks of Ise.
Elsewhere, Article 13 of the Amusement Business Act keeps such bars closed from midnight to 6 a.m. The ordinance makes seasonal exceptions: across the whole prefecture they may open until 1 a.m. from 21 to 31 December and from 2 to 10 January, and until 6 a.m. on New Year's Day.
Kintetsu Nagoya to Kintetsu Yokkaichi is about 28 minutes by express, and Yokkaichi to Tsu about another 20. From Tsu, Kintetsu limited expresses take about 45 minutes to Kintetsu Nagoya and about 81 minutes to Osaka Namba.
The nearest airport is Chubu Centrair in Aichi; the Tsu Airport Line high-speed boat links it with Tsu in about 45 minutes. On JR, JR Central's Rapid Mie runs from Nagoya towards Ise and Toba.
Mie is listed in two parts, Yokkaichi/Kuwana/Suzuka/Tsu and Matsusaka/Atago/Ise. The northern part has the Yokkaichi/Kuwana and Suzuka/Tsu areas, the southern part Matsusaka/Atago/Ise and Nabari. Suwasakaemachi falls under Yokkaichi/Kuwana, Daimon under Suzuka/Tsu and Atago-machi under Matsusaka/Atago/Ise.
Mie is generally fine for a night out. The main risk is bottakuri, a padded bill at the end. Stick to venues that post their prices, skip street touts steering you into ‘free’ bars, and confirm the set fee plus any nomination or bottle charges before you order.
Payment methods vary by venue. Check the listing and confirm with the venue before booking.
