Food Stalls (Yatai)

Nakasu Yatai, located in Fukuoka City, Japan, is a unique and vibrant dining district famous for its traditional open-air food stalls known as “yatai.” These yatai are iconic in Fukuoka’s culinary scene, providing a nostalgic and immersive dining experience that has been cherished by locals and visitors alike for decades.

The word “yatai” translates to “food cart,” and Nakasu Yatai is home to a cluster of these charming, mobile food stalls lining the banks of the Nakasu River. Each yatai is typically small, accommodating only a handful of guests, creating an intimate and convivial atmosphere. Visitors can enjoy a variety of delectable dishes, including Fukuoka’s signature Hakata ramen, yakitori (grilled chicken skewers), tempura, and more.

Nakasu Yatai comes to life in the evenings, when the neon lights and lanterns illuminate the riverside, creating a lively and welcoming ambiance. It’s a fantastic place to savor local Fukuoka delicacies, mingle with the friendly stall owners, and experience the heart and soul of Fukuoka’s street food culture.

This culinary haven has become a beloved cultural and culinary attraction, offering an authentic taste of Fukuoka’s gastronomic traditions. Whether you’re a food enthusiast or simply looking for a memorable and immersive dining experience, Nakasu Yatai is a must-visit destination in Fukuoka.
