Beautiful flowers decorate the entrance hall

Menu of Hacchouya. Unfortunately, an English menu is not available, but you can choose dishes by looking at their pictures!

Look! The Sake pitcher is made of genuine bamboo!

There's a small hole from which the sake can be poured

Rice with Heshiko (mackerel pickled in rice-bran paste) and hot soup, which is called, 'Heshiko Chazuke'. A Fukui specialty!

You may not know it, but in Fukui, when you arrive at the JR Fukui station late at night (after 9 p.m.) it is hard to find a place to have a late dinner. Restaurants in Fukui close early! But rest assured, there's one good place that stays open until 11PM near the station; HACCHOUYA, Fukui. At this restaurant, you can enjoy not only local Fukui food but also specialties from nearby Ishikawa prefecture as well, since the restaurant originated in Ishikawa. They have a variety of tasty Japanese dishes and local sake. Most importantly, it's open till 11PM! HACCHOUYA is surely Fukui locals' and tourists' savior restaurant! Prices depend on what you order, but it could be around 3,000 to 5,000 yen.
