A free factory tour with no reservation required! A new spot with an all-you-can-eat Spicy Fish Eggs buffet (Sasaguri-machi, Kasuya-gun)
Hello! I'm hicho_cafe, who posts information about Fukuoka, mainly about cafes, on Instagram.
This time, we will introduce a new facility that opened on September 1st, 2023, which is perfect for a short drive as it is both educational and delicious.
Yamaya Factory Terrace, a facility where you can learn about, buy, eat, and experience Spicy Fish Eggs (Sasaguri Town, Kasuya District)
Yamaya's headquarters and factory, located in Matsushima, Higashi-ku, Fukuoka City, will be relocated to Sasaguri-machi, Kasuya-gun in April 2023.
Adjacent to the company's head office and new factory is the Yamaya Factory Terrace, an experiential facility where you can enjoy Spicy Fish Eggs.
It is located about 6 minutes by car from the Kyushu Expressway Fukuoka IC.
