Miki Service Area
A large service area on the Sanyo Expressway with a wide range of facilities, including restaurants, a convenience store, cafés, and a bakery. Both sides of Miki Service Area feature dining options, shopping areas, dog parks, and more, making it a convenient stop for meals, shopping, and rest breaks.
What impressed me most was actually the Starbucks. The whole store has a simple, tasteful design, with large glass windows that let in plenty of natural light, and there’s also outdoor seating where you can relax. Although the coffee tastes about the same as at any other Starbucks, finding such a comfortable place to sit down and take a break during a long drive really makes you appreciate how thoughtfully planned Japan’s expressway service areas are.
