Hakodate Hikari no Yatai Daimon Yokocho

Follow the warm glow of lanterns and discover the flavors and friendly spirit of Hakodate nightlife

Located in the historic Daimon district near Hakodate Station, this lively yatai (food stall) village captures the nostalgic charm of old Hakodate, a town once thriving with the Seikan Ferry and the northern fisheries. Over 20 small eateries line the narrow alleyways, each offering its own take on Hokkaido cuisine — from fresh local seafood and handmade home-style dishes to oden and Chinese-inspired plates.


Each stall typically has around 10 counter seats, creating a cozy atmosphere where conversation flows naturally between visitors, locals, and friendly owners. The intimate setting and soft lantern light evoke a sense of warmth and nostalgia, making every visit feel personal and memorable.


Beloved by both tourists and locals alike, Daimon Yokocho is the perfect place to experience Hakodate’s culinary culture and hospitality. Enjoy hopping from stall to stall, tasting the region’s flavors, and sharing stories over a drink — it’s the ideal way to spend a memorable evening during your Hokkaido trip.
