Osaka Street Food Tour

Step off Osaka’s busy tourist trail and explore a true local gem - Japan’s longest shopping street.

 

While most visitors stick to the crowds of Namba and Shinsaibashi, this walking food tour takes you into the heart of Tenjinbashisuji, a nearly 2-kilometer-long arcade filled with locals, not tourists. It may be Japan’s longest shopping street, but it’s also home to some of Osaka’s most underrated street food spots - hidden in plain sight.

 

As we stroll through this lively neighborhood near Umeda, you’ll sample a variety of Osaka’s iconic street foods, including:

​

• Crispy kushikatsu (deep-fried skewers)

• Classic takoyaki (octopus balls)

• Savory okonomiyaki (Japanese-style pancake)

• Fresh-fried croquettes

• Warm, sweet taiyaki

• Silky tofu pudding

 

Along the way, your guide will share stories about Osaka’s unique food culture, the history of this vibrant neighborhood, and what makes this city Japan’s true culinary capital. Whether it’s your first time in Osaka or your fifth, this is a food tour designed to take you deeper - and leave you full.
