What to expect

Omoide Yokocho, also known as Memory Lane, is a nostalgic area tucked away in the backstreets of Shinjuku that captures the charm of old Japan. It’s a special spot for foreign travelers where you can find small eateries lined up, offering traditional izakaya-style dishes like yakitori (grilled chicken skewers), kushiyaki (grilled skewers), oden (Japanese hot pot), and more. The interiors of these cozy establishments radiate a retro vibe, making you feel as though you’ve stepped back in time to Japan’s Showa era. Visiting Omoide Yokocho also provides an opportunity to interact with locals, allowing you to experience a genuine side of Japanese culture and daily life that you won’t find in typical tourist spots. It’s a place where you can feel the warmth and friendliness that make it so unique.
