The city of Hakodate, where Western food culture has taken root early on, is rich in local ingredients. You can enjoy a variety of meals throughout the city, from fresh seafood to uniquely themed restaurants.
We also introduce the series of restaurants themed on local production for local consumption, featuring local ingredients and specialties, such as Restaurant LE UN.
Hakodate's food culture
As a port city,
the Western food culture blossomed early
函館は1859（安政6）年、横浜や長崎などとともに開港した街のひとつです。幕末から明治にかけ、各国から商人ら多くの外国人が訪れたことで、いち早く洋食の文化が芽生えました。
Nearby The Old Soma Residence, there are several historic long-established shops, including "Goto-ken Restaurant," which was founded in the 12th year of the Meiji era.
Seafood nurtured by a peninsula surrounded by the ocean
The waters surrounding Hakodate are an excellent fishing ground where warm and cold currents meet. You can enjoy outstanding seafood, including the local specialty of live squid sashimi, rock sole, sea urchin, abalone, and kelp, which is said to be the best in Japan.
At Kazeno Heritage, we offer the 'Wholesale Market Morning Auction & Breakfast Tour', where you can closely observe a lively auction held early in the morning and enjoy fresh fish for breakfast at the cafeteria inside the market.
Enjoy Hakodate with your five senses
