A Local Specialty Burger to Savor Under the Dappled Shade of the Pine Forest
About this spot
A soul food of Karatsu, operating from a retro bus body parked within the pine forest of Niji no Matsubara. The signature Special Burger features layers of patty, ham, egg, and cheese finished with a house-made slightly sweet sauce. Cooked to order on a griddle, the moment you open the wrapper, a savory aroma fills the air that is simply irresistible. The correct way to enjoy your burger is to savor it in the dappled sunlight of the pine forest while feeling the sea breeze. The unpretentious nostalgic flavor combined with the location's charm has made it a long-beloved Karatsu specialty among both locals and travelers.
Tips
This popular shop draws lines during lunch hours, so arriving a bit early is recommended. Since seating for eating in is limited, bringing a picnic sheet allows you to enjoy the burger picnic-style in the pine forest. The sauce tends to stick to hands, so don't forget wet wipes.
Best time to visit
Approximately 50 minutes. Early afternoon, from opening until noon, is the best time to avoid long lines.
