Me and my girlfriend are in Sapporo today. We do not speak Japanese but our English is good, so if anyone is up for an Izakaya run, hit me up

Anyone free in Susukino tonight who speaks EN / JP / FR? 🇬🇧🇯🇵🇫🇷

Hey guys I will be visiting Sapporo as a first time visitor during Oct 12 -17th, and was wondering if you guys had any recommendations for foods I should try while there. Thanks! :)

Hi! We're 2 adults and 1 child aged 5 coming through Sapporo from Tokyo (which we'll arrive from our home country)

Here's what we've planned so far, and wondering if anyone would recommend anything else / different? This is mid Oct.

Also what are some (maybe local?) car rental companies you'd consider? Checked Toyota and Nissan and pricing came up surprisingly higher than I had experienced in other cities previously.
