Excellent soba shop next to the train station and the national museums. Has menus in English and you can pay with a credit card. Quiet. Food is delightful!

My wife likes Ramen. I like Soba and Ramen. A Soba place highly recommended so I must try. It was light. Sizes were good for tourists who liked to eat 4-5 meals a day🤣. No doubt the soup base is tasty, even it was clear but not blank at all. Soba noodles were a bit soft but full of flavour of soba. Atmosphere relaxing. Seating comfortable. I will go again next time in Tokyo. My wife still prefers Ramen with strong soup.

Good soba, great service. Ordered a mushroom hot soup soba and a tororo cold soba. Both are plant strong if not vegetarian. Too bad no yasai tempura soba. We just had sashimi dinner nearby but craved some carbs. So this was satisfying.
