Flow of the course

About this spot

Located along Route 10 in the heart of Tono Town, this roadside station gathers the bounty of an agriculturally rich region. The direct sales shop displays freshly harvested local vegetables, fruits, and processed products made from the region's specialty tomatoes. The dining area serves dishes featuring signature tomatoes and local ingredients, perfect for a lunch break during your drive. The sweetness and acidity of fully ripened tomatoes—the result of abundant sunshine from the Hyuga-nada coastal fields—offer a distinctive flavor experience. This is an ideal stopover for touring, dining, and experiencing the agricultural abundance of Tono Town all at once.

Tips

The lunch rush can be crowded, so visiting slightly off-peak hours allows for a more relaxed meal and shopping experience. Vegetable and fruit selections are more abundant in the morning, so consider shopping first. A cooler bag is recommended for transporting fresh produce like tomatoes.

Best time to visit

Allow approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. Visiting slightly outside the midday peak allows for both dining and shopping at a leisurely pace.
