Yayoiken Chikushiguchi Store Reopens with a Modern Design

Yayoiken, a popular chain of Japanese set meal restaurants run by Plenus Corporation, will officially reopen its Chikushiguchi location on June 4, 2026, at 10 AM after undergoing a significant renovation. This revamped branch will be a statement of Yayoiken's brand image that was launched in December 2023, reflecting a modern interpretation of traditional Japanese aesthetics.

Modern Design Meets Japanese Tradition

The newly designed store encapsulates a sophisticated ambiance using modern “Wagata” (Japanese-style) elements. Notable features include noren curtains that invoke a sense of cultural authenticity and wallpaper inspired by historical materials related to the brand's origins, particularly “Yayoiken”. Visitors can expect a dining experience that not only celebrates Japanese culinary traditions but also provides a serene environment for enjoying meals.

Guests at Yayoiken have the unique opportunity to place their orders via tablets installed at each table, allowing them to browse the extensive menu comfortably. Moreover, the restaurant maintains its popular ‘Okawari-dokoro,’ where patrons can enjoy unlimited refills of rice, broth, and pickles, ensuring a satisfying dining experience.

Captivating Logo and Symbol
