Take-no-Chaya Ippuku

Reopened after renovations in April 2021.
Located at the far end of the Historic District, this shop is famous for its Kawara Soba (soba noodles served on a roof tile).
The specialty “Onigawara Soba (serves 2)” is served on a unique plate shaped like an ogre’s face.
The Japanese buckwheat noodles, grilled on Edo-period roof tiles, are so fragrant you won’t be able to stop eating.
The “Gyohan” (fish rice) is also popular and can be ordered on the day of your visit.
Enjoy a nostalgic time in a shop surrounded by Showa-era movie posters and photos and autographs of celebrities who have visited Takehara.
