A Menu with History

Originally available monthly from February 2015 to March 2021, the Hakone Soba Special was a much-anticipated end-of-month feature. However, due to the pandemic and other circumstances, it faced temporary suspension. Most recently, it made a one-day comeback on August 5 for the commemoration of Hakone Soba Day, showcasing the loyalty of its customers through various initiative innovations, including a customer-driven topping selection in 2023 and 2024.

Throughout 2025, patrons can relish the richness of freshly made soba, complemented by umami-rich broth. Known for its kakiage—crafted daily on-site—each location adds its seasonal dishes, ensuring unique seasonal flavors for each visit.

More Reasons to Visit

In light of this celebration, many exciting initiatives are planned. Customers are encouraged to engage and follow developments via Hakone Soba's social media channels, especially on their official X (formerly Twitter) page. The experience awaits the travelers along the Odakyu Line as well; each visit promises a cozy ambiance along with delectable meals.
