Yebisu Garden Place (恵比寿ガーデンプレイス) is one of Tokyo's many pleasant cities within the city. Consisting of roughly a dozen buildings and skyscrapers, it features a large array of restaurants and shops, the Westin Tokyo hotel, the Michelin 3-star Chateau Restaurant Joel Robuchon, offices, residential space and a photography museum.

Yebisu Garden Place is built on the former site of a beer brewery, where the still existing Yebisu Beer brand had been brewed since 1890. Interestingly, it was the beer brand which gave the later developing town and railway station of Ebisu* its name, and not the other way around.

Opened in April 2024, the Yebisu Brewery Tokyo is a small brewery and museum with exhibits about the history and science of beer brewing in Japan. The museum can be entered for free, while beer produced exclusively here can be purchase and tasted at the tap room. Paid guided tours of the museum are also available, but held only in Japanese. There is also a shop.

* "Ebisu" is the modern way to write "Yebisu", as the syllable "ye" and corresponding kana characters have almost completely disappeared from the modern Japanese language and been replaced by the "e".
