1.Directly connected to Ikebukuro Station! Udon【2 Restaurants】
1-1.【Closed in June 2024】Karukaya/かるかや
Karukaya has been operating at Seibu Ikebukuro Main Store since 1968.
Homemade Udon noodles that can be eaten on the roof of a department store.
The whole process is done by hand without using a machine, so the noodles have a firm texture.
Ikebukuro geek love Karukaya
There is a menu with photos, so let’s take a picture and point and order with smile (* ̄ー ̄*)
1-2.Sanuki Udon Merikenya Ikebukuro store
“Merikenya” is located in the “IKEMEN Kitchen Food Court” next to Ikefukuro at Ikebukuro Station.
IKEMEN has two meanings in Japanese.
One is a nice guy and the other is delicious noodles.
You can enjoy soft and chewy udon noodles from morning till night.
Of course, you can add as many tempura toppings as you like!
Recommended not only for udon lovers but also for tempura lovers.
2.Udon 3 Restaurants at the east exit of Ikebukuro
2-1.Musahi no Udon Uchitate-Ya/武蔵野うどん うちたて家
“Musashino Udon” is thick, strong.
Let’s chew & chew & chew.
After you ate Udaon,Add the boiled udon juice to the soup and drink.
There seems to be an English menu

2-2.Suzuriya/うどん処 硯家
I recommend spicy curry udon at suzuriya.
Not just curryudon
Homemade curry soup is topped on the crispy noodles.
The menu seems to be Japanese only, so let’s go eat with a friend who can use Japanese.
2-3.Maruka/満留賀(まるか)
Proceed along Meiji-dori toward the Toshima Ward Office and the expressway, and you will see it on the left.
I love the lettering on the sign.
Maruka was founded in 1969 and has been loved by the people of Ikebukuro ever since.
It’s not authentic spice curry, it’s a nostalgic curry with pork and dipped in Seiro udon ( ̄Д ̄)ノ
2-4.Himokawa Udon Kiryu/ひもかわうどん桐生
Enter Higashi Dori(Street) from the east exit of Ikebukuro Station, pass a UchitateYa(Popular udon restaurant), and continue on until you arrive at Himokawa Udon Kiryu.
This restaurant’s signature menu is “Himokawa Udon,” a local udon noodle dish from Kiryu City, Gunma Prefecture, which is made with super wide noodles.
We recommend the menu you can eat both Himokawa and Udon!
Enjoy the smooth and chewy texture♪
3.Udon 3 restaurants at the west exit of Ikebukuro
3-1.Ampuku Ikebukuro/あんぷく 池袋店

At Anpuku, udon is cooked freely.
The photo is beef black Curryudon
It is in harmony with the Japanese stock.
3-2.Curry Udon Hikari Tokyo/カレーうどんひかりTOKYO
After passing through the semi-basement of the building, a two-story house appears.
The flat, chewy noodles and various spices created a delicious harmony ( ̄▽+ ̄*).
At night, it becomes an izakaya.
