We also want to talk about the singles nightlife here for a bit. Most will tell you that there are more bars to try and hook up with women in Osaka so you may want to take the train over that way if you plan to party and look for a one night stand.

But you can still find some cool pick up bars here, many of which are located in and around Sannomiya. This would be the main area for bars and singles nightlife in Kobe to hook up with girls, if you plan to do a lot of partying and hope to get laid stay in that part of town.

If you are new to Japan some bars may not be ‘gaijin friendly’ which means foreigners cannot enter. You should not have any problems at the ones we listed, but if you do don’t sweat it and just move on to the next.

Meet Kobe Girls During The Day

If you don’t speak any Japanese then meeting single women in Kobe during the day will be pretty hard. At least in a singles bar or club you can try to get them to dance and pick them up that way.

Day game on the street is all about conversation, and you shouldn’t expect them to speak much English. If you do want to try then hang out a block or two away from busy subway stations as they will be coming and going in those areas all day and evening.

Or try to pick up Kobe girls at malls or in shopping areas like:

• Sun Center Plaza
• Mint Kobe
• Duo Kobe
• Kobe Sand Premium Outlets
• SOGO

Chat With Girls Online

Japanese culture is very conservative and revolves around ‘not losing face. That is why you won’t hear any raised voices or see people arguing.

Well many of the Japanese women near you also don’t want to lose face by being seen leaving the bar for a one night stand with a foreign man she just met. Some won’t care, but many will feel shame and worry about gossip.

That doesn’t mean there aren’t thousands of girls in Kobe who want to date foreign men, and plenty who just want to hook up. Many turn to Japan Cupid to try to meet them, it is the biggest and best online dating site in the country.

Since not too many foreign men visit this city it won’t be that hard for you to set up date nights. We suggest you sign up for Japan Cupid a couple weeks before your trip to start to get the ball rolling.

By the time you arrive you should have plenty of contacts made and can start going on dates your first nights in town. If you wait until you arrive to try to pick up girls at bars in your area then who knows how it will go.

You should pipeline for all of the cities in the country you will be visiting to improve your chances of getting laid or finding something more long term.

Tips For Tourists & Expats

We aren’t going to go full Fodor’s Travel on you here but we do have some things to mention. Japan has great public transportation, you can check out the subway map for this city here.

The local currency is the yen and you get roughly 155 per USD as of our last update. We mentioned gaijin friendly bars before, if you know how to speak some Japanese or show up with locals you might be allowed in.

Generally speaking single women in Kobe who want to meet foreign men won’t be hanging out at bars that aren’t gaijin friendly anyways. If they wanted to meet or hook up with gaijin they know where to go.

Expect English levels to be very low, the more of the local language you can speak the better your chances. As far as the dating and hook up customs in Japan go just remember that whole losing face thing we mentioned before.

Don’t raise your voice, don’t argue, just smile and be polite. If a girl agrees to go on a date with you then she probably really likes foreigners, you don’t really need to win her over you just need to not mess it up.

Here is a map of the best date and pick up spots around town. We tried to do our best with addresses but it wasn’t easy, try to book a centrally located hotel to increase your chances of getting laid.
