APÉRO AOYAMA CLOSING Notice
Dear friends, guests, partners, and everyone who has been part of APÉRO AOYAMA,
It is with a very heavy heart that I have to announce the sudden closure of APÉRO AOYAMA.
I am deeply sorry for the abruptness of this announcement, and especially for those of you who had planned to visit us, or who supported us from the very beginning. If you would like to understand more about what has happened, please feel free to contact me directly. I will be more than happy to speak with you personally and answer your questions.
With all my gratitude,
Guillaume
Concept / philosophy
Born from a conviction: a defence of soulful hospitality. We are a modern sanctuary for the craftsman and the vigneron.
And this is all expressed through the French art of "Accessible Sophistication," where the warmth of the apéro meets Japan’s reverence for season and craft. Our mission is to maximise your effortless delight in a refined escape where every detail feels intuitively right.
The result is a third place between home and work in Tokyo, where every guest is welcomed as a friend.
WINES / LA CAVE
Our cellar is a curated journey, not just a list. We focus on characterful, story-driven wines from passionate, independent producers, celebrating authenticity over acclaim.
Our sommeliers are your Expert Guides. Tell us what you enjoy. We’ll translate that into a perfect glass or bottle that suits your mood, your meal, and your curiosity, demystifying the world of wine with warm, intuitive guidance.
Menu & la carte
A seasonal story of Japan’s terroir, interpreted with a French soul, our cuisine highlights pristine, often organic ingredients, treated with French technique and a spirit of playful surprise.
Every dish is a harmonious partner to wine. Think of the menu as a map of flavours—we’ll help you navigate the perfect pairing from your first apéritif to your final, memorable sip.
TEAM / L'EQUIPE
Led by founder Guillaume Dupérier and Chef Timothée Barthélémy. They embody our philosophy: deep mastery delivered with genuine warmth.
Guillaume's journey from finance to hospitality fuels his vision for APÉRO as a home for authentic connection. Timothée crafts cuisine that respects local produce through French gastronomy.
Together with our sommeliers, they aim to be your guides on a curated journey of taste—offering precise, unpretentious knowledge with genuine care.
