Founded Over 70 Years Ago – Established Favorite Grilled Fresh to Order
About this spot
A long-established hamburger shop known as a pioneer of Sasebo burgers. Inheriting American-style hamburger culture brought to this former U.S. Navy base town, this shop has maintained its tradition of hand-made burgers for over 70 years, grilling each patty fresh on an iron plate to order. The signature menu item is their special burger with bacon and egg layered on the patty. Bite into the hot-off-the-grill burger wrapped in paper, and your mouth fills with the juices and savory aroma of the meat. Located near Sasebo Park, this main branch is the perfect starting point for your burger-hopping adventure, and it's the classic route to begin your harbor town burger tour here.
Tips
Since burgers are grilled to order, there is a wait time before they're ready. On weekends around lunch hours, lines often form, so visiting shortly after opening ensures you get a freshly grilled burger quickly. Since your second stop awaits, consider splitting a burger between two people to pace yourselves for enjoying all the stops.
Best time to visit
Approximately 1 hour. Visiting shortly after opening, before long lines form, lets you enjoy a freshly grilled burger right away.
