Treat yourself to a break along the hike for signature soba and dango, all served with a view.
Hike up Route 1 on Mount Takao to find Juichichome Chaya shortly after passing the Takaosan Cable Car Station near Kasumidai Observatory. Established in 1899, this long-standing teahouse offers delicious soba, miso oden, and freshly grilled dango prepared right in front of the shop.
One of the highlights of this teahouse is its terrace seating. From the tables or tatami mats in the back, guests here enjoy the promise of breathtaking views—on clear days, you might even see Enoshima or Yokohama.
The soba served here is slightly thicker and pairs perfectly with Mount Takao's specialty: tororo (grated yam). Other popular items include the "miso oden”, generously coated with sweet miso, and refreshing shaved ice in the summer.
With a souvenir shop on-site, this scenic teahouse is the perfect spot to enhance your Mount Takao hiking experience.
