Last update :

Established in 1903, coinciding with the opening of Hibiya Park, Japan's first Western-style park, this venerable Western restaurant has been a distinguished establishment beloved by literary giants including Natsume Soseki and many prominent figures across various fields. Despite experiencing two devastating fires, it has been rebuilt and continues to preserve its rich history.

The signature dish, 'Haikara Beef Curry', has remained largely unchanged since the opening. This mild, flavorful British-style curry offers a nostalgic yet deep taste that stands out as a specialty.

Other classic offerings include 'Omelet Rice with Hayashi Sauce' and 'Haikara Hayashi Rice', along with a variety of traditional 'Haikara Western cuisine'. Seasonal limited menus, chef-special homemade cakes, and course meals are also available, providing options for every occasion.

Diners can enjoy their meal surrounded by the iconic ginkgo trees of Hibiya Park and its ever-changing verdant scenery. The terrace seating, which welcomes pets, is an ideal spot for a relaxing break during a walk.
