Hamura, Tokyo, Japan｜石臼自家製粉 手打ちそば 櫓

I stopped by on my way back from the zoo. A soba restaurant surrounded by antiques. I had the tempura bowl and soba lunch set, and both were delicious. Although it was during the peak lunch time, the customer service was courteous.

The soba noodles here are truly amazing, or rather impressive. It's quite a walk from Hamura Station (there is a bus, but the bus stop is far away and it doesn't run very often), but when you visit, you're really looking forward to it and don't feel the distance. There are also single items available, but since you're taking the time to go there, it's best to reserve a course and enjoy your drinks at your leisure. There seem to be a lot of fresh-faced part-time workers working at night, but you can tell that the owner is calm yet attentive, making sure that every customer has a comfortable time. Just writing about this shop makes me want to go back again.

It is a hideaway shop that is quietly located off the main street. The recommended point is that you can enjoy delicious soba noodles in a calm atmosphere along with a set menu and a la carte dishes. The parking lot 🅿️ is about 4 cars in front of the store, so it's safe to visit when the store opens. The inside of the store has a quiet and calm atmosphere, but the threshold is not high at all, so I was able to feel at ease even with an infant. The customer service is also very polite and they always have a pleasant meal. It's the taste that matters, but the quality of soba noodles, Tsuyu, and Shinshu people are all satisfactory. I was very satisfied with both the volume and taste of the sea bream pickled rice bowl and mini tempura rice bowl from the set menu. Although the price is not cheap at all, I think that it is commensurate with the quality. In addition, you can change the set menu soba to Hikigurumi or a large serving, and it will respond to the detailed preferences of the customer. As well as the variety of menus, I feel that they are doing business from the customer's point of view. 👏 Payment is made at the seat. You can choose cash or credit card. In addition, since it is located near Hamura Zoological Park, it is recommended that you plan to take a leisurely walk around the park after having soba noodles with your children.
