Visit Asakusa for its rich history and excellent souvenir shopping, stay for the endless amounts of delicious food on offer. Whether you are craving a bowl of chewy noodles or crispy fried dumplings, it’s impossible to go hungry in this neighbourhood—even in the wee hours of the morning. Getting in on a late flight? Finishing off a night on the town? Got hit with the midnight munchies? You’re in the right neighbourhood.

Tavern Koji Asakusa

Come hungry, leave full of various grilled meats and beef stew. Grab a chair (and a beer, while your at it!) and prep your chopsticks, this streetside izakaya has plenty of bites to hold you over until morning. The adventurous should go for the pan-fried to perfection natto dumplings!

Onigiri Asakusa Yadoroku

Not only is Yadoroku the oldest onigiri specialist in Tokyo, but the shop also makes some of the most satisfying rice balls around. Choose from toppings like salmon, tarako, okaka, and ume, and make it a meal with miso soup and a side of pickled radish!

Ramen Benkei Asakusa

Ending the night with a steamy bowl of ramen should be an Asakusa requirement. The area is teeming with ramen joints, but you’ll want to go here to get your tonkotsu fix. Leave your guilt at the door, because this bowl of noodle soup is rich and fatty in all the best ways.

Paku Paku

If you’re on the move, or would rather snack in the peace of your hotel room, stop by this sidewalk stall for a bento stuffed with crispy chicken, pork katsu, omelette, or even pasta! The shop is filled with everything you could need to satisfy your after-hour cravings, whether that be takoyaki, crispy egg roll, or french fries.

Uuto Cafe

For a more low-key option, Uuto Cafe offers luxurious desserts (you’ll want to go for the chocolate cafe), pasta, or hardy sandwiches in a space that will make you feel like your hanging out at a friend’s house.   Stay at Red Planet Tokyo Asakusa to be near all the neighbourhood’s best eats! With low room rates, you’ll have extra funds for foodie outings and snacks.
