'''Ebisu Station''' (恵比寿駅) is a primary railway station found in the Ebisu neighborhood of [[Shibuya-ku]], [[Tokyo]]. The station is originally named, along with the rest of the neighborhood, for [[Yebisu Beer]], which was brewed in a nearby brewery during the late 1800s and early 1900s before moving. The name of the beer itself is a Japanese god and patron of alcohol.

==Lines and Service==

Railway companies that use Ebisu Station include [[East Japan Railway Company]] and [[Tokyo Metro]]. The lines operated by each company include:

*[[Tokyo Metro]] – [[Hibiya Line]]
*[[JR East]] – [[Yamanote Line]], [[Saikyo Line]], [[Shonan-Shinjuku Line]]

==Station==

The station is laid out to accommodate both companies with two primary side platforms and two island platforms. The service for the four platforms consists of the following:

==JR East Platforms==

*Yamanote Line – Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro
*Yamanote Line – Shinagawa, Tokyo, Ueno
*Saikyo Line – Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, Akabane, Omiya
*Shonan-Shinjuku Line – Omiya, Oyama, Utsunomiya

In either direction the nearest stations to Ebisu Station are Shibuya Station, Meguro Station, Osaki Station, Hiroo Station, and Nakameguro Station – all accessible within 1 stop on one of the four lines that run through Ebisu Station.

==Outside Station==

The area around Ebisu station is now known as [[Ebisu Garden Place]], which was originally built in 1994 in the same site as the old Yebisu brewery. Restaurants, shops, and tourist traveler information spots have opened here to make it a well traveled location within [[Shibuya-ku]]. While not as fashionable or stylish as nearby stops, Ebisu’s brick façade has become a symbol of the Tokyo railway system.
