Located north-east of the heart of Tokyo, Ueno has been a perfect destination for those who desire good food and cultural exploration. What makes Ueno distinctively unique is its dynamic blend of contrasts; chaos and serenity, urban development and natural beauty, modernity and tradition, common touch and nobility.
Ueno Park is located on what was once the grounds of the largest, most prestigious temple in Edo (old Tokyo), from the 17th to 19th century. It is one of the most beloved cherry-blossom viewing spots in Tokyo. Local Japanese and tourists flock together for shopping and eating at its nearby district Ameyoko, where you will find a countless number of unique bars and dining places.
Mon - Sun 10:40 a.m.
Inside JR Ueno Station

All the delicious food and drinks mentioned above, but if you want more alcohol (and who doesn't?) We offer a upgraded drinks package that gives you 2 drinks.
You can find the meeting spot here and if it's not clear you can always contact us.
We'll meet inside JR Ueno Station building (outside the JR Central Gate), near the entrance of Hard Rock Cafe. Be reminded that there are a few entrances to the Hard Rock Café. We are waiting for you near the one on the other side of the bakery named 'ANDERSEN.' In case you can't find the meeting spot, you can ask by showing this (JR上野駅 中央改札外のハードロックカフェ入口付近) to the local people. Our guide will be standing there to greet you with our Secret Food Tours orange umbrella, so we're easy to spot!

We end our tour at the Central Gate of JR Ueno station, the same location we meet to start the tour. However, you can depart at any convenient spot, please advise your guide and you will be pointed in the right direction to explore on your own.
You can always tell our guides of any food allergies or special dietary requirements. We will adapt the menu so you can fully enjoy the tour! If you have any doubts or concerns, feel free to email us at [email protected] before booking.
Children are quite welcome and it's free for any child 2 years or under. We can give them non-alcoholic drinks and you are free to enjoy the tour with your entire family of all ages.
There is one alcohol drink on this tour, but it can be easily replaced for a non-alcoholic option. Just inform our guide before your tour starts if you have any special request. During the tasting, water is available in most of the food locations.
Think of the tour as a tasting menu. As we travel you get many delicious treats that comprise a meal with desert, fruit, and snacks. You will not feel hungry after the tour.
Our tours are often sold out very quickly. If the date requested is not available, please do not hesitate to email us and see if there is anything we can do. We cannot promise, but we will try our best to sort something out for you.
To join our food tour, you must wear comfortable shoes. There will be around 45 minutes to one hour of walking, but it is not too difficult and is broken up between food stops. The guide walks at the pace of the tour members.
We take 10 people maximum. If you are more than 10 people, please do not hesitate to email us and we will try to see if we can accommodate.
You do not have to print your voucher. A confirmation on your phone will be fine!
All of our vouchers expire one year from the date of purchase.
Our guide will take care of everything. Should you wish to try something special, please inform our guide and they will do their best to make you happy.
Top-quality, fresh and local!
Unfortunately, the weather is unpredictable in Tokyo especially in early and late summer seasons. Bring an umbrella with you. We will try rerouting so we are not affected as much but please come prepared for the weather. In the case that a huge typhoon is approaching and any considerable difficulties and risks are predicted, the tour will be cancelled for your safety. Such cancellation will be notified to you in advance, at least a few hours before the tour. You will receive full refund in that case. Also, there are no tours during the period from December 29, 2018 to January 6, 2019 as most Food Houses will be flooded by locals and very difficult to run the tour. We do not issue refunds as per our terms and conditions if this is a case that you change your plan.
You must book directly on our website. We do not accept cash payments. Our online payment is safe, secured and SSL protected.
The booking fee that you have to pay is up to our ticket provider and we can't change it. All our clients need to pay for it upon booking. The booking fee charged contributes to the cost of the ticketing system to provide an excellent service to our customers.
A few banks have charged their customer an extra fee while booking with us (this isn't the booking fee but another fee added by the bank). We think this is unfair, if this happens let us know by showing us in your bank statement and we will refund this fee as a gesture of good will.
