Izakaya and tachinomiya run the gamut from grubby to pristine, seedy to swank. What they all have in common is low priced alcohol and light food. The tachinomiya and her sister, the izakaya, appeared around the beginning of the Edo period. The last decade has seen a tachinomiya revival in Tokyo. New, sparkling clean, nicely appointed shops, purveying drinks and snacks some with stools or beer crates as seats have supplanted the "standing room only" rule of tachinomiya, blurring the lines between tachinomiya (standing bar) izakaya (bar with seats)
