## Funabashi/Honcho Wine Bar 'reposant' Celebrates 1st Anniversary
'Wine, Snacks, and Relaxation Bar reposant' (located in Honcho 2-chome, Funabashi, Chiba) will celebrate its 1st anniversary on Monday, May 11, 2026. To commemorate this milestone, the shop will host a 4-day anniversary campaign from Tuesday, May 12, to Friday, May 15, 2026, offering one free glass of sparkling wine to every customer who visits during this period.
### A Wine Bar Created from Architectural Insight
'reposant' is a French word meaning 'to give rest' or 'peace of mind.' True to its name, the shop focuses on creating a space where people can truly relax while enjoying wine and food. Located within walking distance of Funabashi Station and Keisei Funabashi Station, it has become a popular spot for local residents and workers.
The owner, Jun Ishinao, is a Funabashi native. After graduating from an architectural vocational school, he worked as a construction site manager. Driven by a long-held passion for the restaurant industry, he began formal culinary training at age 23 and gained experience in restaurants in Kaihin-Makuhari and Urayasu. His goal was not just to build a restaurant, but to design a 'restful space' using his architectural sensibilities and service experience.
### Interior Design and Curated Music
The interior features a warm greige color palette with wooden elements, striking a balance between modern minimalism and soft comfort. The design was handled by a friend from his architectural student days to realize Ishinao's vision of 'Nagomi' (harmony/relaxation). Additionally, the shop uses background music composed by Nagano-based Junichi Kamiyama, specifically designed to balance the autonomic nervous system, aiming for an atmosphere that encourages guests to linger.
### Approachable Wine for Everyone
Currently, the shop offers 24 varieties of wine by the glass at all times. Ishinao wants guests to feel comfortable ordering even without expert knowledge. This philosophy stems from a past experience when a customer hesitantly asked, 'Is it okay to order even if I don't know anything about wine?' To ensure guests feel at ease, the shop prioritizes a conversational style to suggest wines based on mood and preference. In total, they carry over 49 types of bottled wine.
### European-Inspired Snacks
The food menu consists of Italian and French-inspired casual dishes starting from 680 yen. Popular items include:
- Chicken breast and leek with balsamic marinade (680 yen)
- Daily quiche (1,000 yen)
- Pate de Campagne (1,200 yen)
### 1st Anniversary Campaign Details
This campaign is a gesture of gratitude to the local community. Visitors between May 12 and May 15 can enjoy a complimentary glass of sparkling wine to toast to the shop's successful first year.
