Golden Gai's 200 closet-sized bars can feel unenterable without an introduction — this is the introduction. You'll drink highballs elbow-to-elbow with regulars, then eat smoke-blackened yakitori in Omoide Yokocho under the rail tracks. It runs late, the seats are stools at best, and a couple of the bars are cash-only and smoky; that's not a bug, that's Shinjuku.
