The 4 best cheap eats in Taketa

Wow - what a find. If you are hankering for some non-Japanese food this is the place. Delicious, beautifully prepared and wonderful friendly service. And great wine and a craft beer.

Absolutely delicious food. The chef (and owner) uses fresh foods picked that day. Exceptionally fresh and perfectly cooked. Kindly catered for dietary requirements. Service was attentive and helpful.

Highly recommended! Fresh and tasteful ingredients are cooked to perfection, and beautifully presented. The chef only uses vegetables freshly picked that morning. My new absolute favorite!

Very delicious French cuisine.

(Translated by Google) I had the evening course for 5,500 yen. It's about 6000 yen including drinks. The food was unique and very delicious. It takes about 2 hours to make each item carefully, so it's best if you have time. The portion was a bit large and I was full. (Original) 夜のコース5500円を食べました。飲み物入れると6000円ちょっとです。料理は個性があり、とても美味しかったです。一品づつ丁寧に作っているので2時間くらいかかるので、時間がある時がいいです。量は少し多めかな～くらいで、お腹いっぱいになりました。

(Translated by Google) Here is the lunch menu as of June 2025. I hope it helps. This is a restaurant where you can enjoy delicious French cuisine made with locally produced ingredients. I highly recommend this restaurant! Below is the menu for the B lunch (beef) (6,000 yen) that I ordered this time. ・Grilled eggplant blancmange ・Seared sea bream carpaccio Homemade ricotta cheese, plums, purple cabbage, etc. ・Takeda corn cold soup Raw corn and fried corn silk ・Sautéed sweetlips Potato vichyssoise with potato fritters to represent scales ・Grilled Oita Wagyu beef thigh Ratatouille with basil in red wine sauce ・Ueki Farm carrot cheesecake and roasted green tea gelato (Original) 2025年6月時点のランチメニューを載せておきます。ご参考になれば。地産地消のとても美味しいフレンチ料理を満喫できるお店です。とてもおすすめのお店です！ 以下、今回お願いしたB lunch（牛肉）6,000円の内容です。 ・焼きナスのブランマンジェ ・炙った鯛のカルパッチョ 自家製リコッタチーズ、プラム、紫キャベツなど ・竹田のコーンの冷製スープ 生のコーンとトウモロコシの髭を揚げたもの ・コショウダイのソテー ジャガイモのフリットを鱗に見立てて、ジャガイモのビシソワーズ ・大分和牛モモ肉のグリル 赤ワインソースにバジルを含ませて、ラタトゥイユ ・植木農園のニンジンのチーズケーキとほうじ茶ジェラート

(Translated by Google) It takes about 1 hour to get from Oita to Takeda by train while drinking. Arrived in no time! Well, how close is it? As soon as you enter the store, you will be greeted with a friendly and wonderful smile. That alone is a happy charge. We use plenty of ingredients from Takeda, purchase fresh vegetables every morning, and make these very elaborate dishes ➕ We will explain them to you in detail ♡ Why not enjoy the feeling of a short trip while strolling through the castle town of Takeda (*´꒳`*) (Original) 大分〜竹田まで電車呑みしながら1時間程度で あっという間に到着！ まぁ何て近いのよぉー 店内入るとすぐに優しい素敵な笑顔で出迎えてくれます。それだけでも幸せチャージ。 竹田産の食材をふんだんに使用し、毎朝新鮮なお野菜を仕入れ、このようなとても手の込んだお料理➕丁寧に説明してくれます♡ 竹田の城下町を散策しながら小旅行の気分を味わいませんか(*´꒳`*)

Only visited the restaurant for lunch but it was very good. Lots of choice, I had the tofu set which was delicious.

(Translated by Google) I stayed here for one night with breakfast. I used to go on a long business trip to Oita, and I visited Nagayu quite often when I was touring 88 hot springs on JR Kyushu. The water here is below average. The day trip is open until 11pm, so it feels like there are people in the bath all the time. You can't take your time. The water is probably quite dirty. The first thing you see in the morning in the indoor bath is a thin layer of hot spring water, but I think Nagayu Onsen could do with a thicker layer. The cold bath next to the sauna was good. It was the kind of thing that is common in carbonated springs with bubbles that smell like iron. It was a shame that there was no water in the cold bath in the morning, so I couldn't use it. The breakfast was good. Highly rated. (Original) 一泊朝食付で利用しました。以前、大分に長期出張時にはJR九州の88湯めぐりで、長湯は結構、訪れていました。 ここのお湯は、普通より下かな。 日帰りが夜11時までなので、いつまでも風呂に人がいる感じ。ユックリ入れない。お湯の汚れもそれなりに有るでしょう。 内湯の朝イチのお湯にはうっすらと温泉膜がありましたが、長湯温泉ならもう少しバリバリと膜が張ってもいいかな。。 サウナ脇の水風呂が良かったです。鉄臭を感じられる泡付き炭酸泉系に良くあるやつでした。朝の時間帯に水風呂に水が入ってなくて入れなかったのが残念。 朝食は、良かったです。高評価です。

(Translated by Google) This is a ryokan in Nagayu Onsen. I visited it in conjunction with a soak in Ramune Onsen. It's a little old, but it's very clean and comfortable. The restaurant attached to the ryokan (Serikawa) is also delicious, and they serve a truly Japanese breakfast. In addition to breakfast, dinner is also available, with a variety of options, including izakaya (Japanese pub) and set meals. I tried the seared fish and chicken called Enoha, which is not often seen in the Kanto region, and it was absolutely delicious. The Enoha in particular was surprisingly tasty. The hot springs have both indoor and outdoor baths. The outdoor bath is particularly lukewarm, and although the indoor bath is also lower in temperature, it allows for a relaxing soak. The carbonated water, with a high concentration of carbon dioxide, was very relaxing. After soaking here and in the nearby Ramune Onsen, I was truly surprised at how well it relieved my fatigue. It was a really great ryokan. I would definitely like to visit again if I have the opportunity. thank you very much. (Original) 長湯温泉の旅館です。 この度、ラムネ温泉と合わせてお伺いしました。 少し古い旅館ですが、非常に綺麗にされており、 居心地がとてもよかったです。 旅館に併設されている食事処（せり川）も非常においしく 日本ならではの朝食、という朝食を頂く事が可能です。 また、朝食以外にも夕食も頂くことが出来て、 居酒屋メニューや定食メニューなど複数がありました。 あまり関東ではみないエノハという魚や鳥のたたきを 頂きましたが非常においしかったです。 とくにエノハはびっくりするほど美味でした。 温泉については露天と内湯があり、 露天は特にぬるま湯であり、 内湯も温度は低いですが、その分ゆっくりつかれて 二酸化炭素の濃度が高い炭酸線のため、 非常に疲れが取れました。 こちらと近隣のラムネ温泉につかったら 本当にビックリする程疲れがとれました。 とても良い旅館でした。 また機会がありましたら是非お伺いしたいと思います。 どうもありがとうございました。

(Translated by Google) It's a very quiet place, and I was looking forward to the bedrock bath, but unfortunately it was under maintenance. But the hot springs are truly amazing. The indoor bath is hot, the outdoor bath is a little lukewarm, and the cold spring is the best. I also had food at the restaurant, and it was delicious. I'd love to come back! A hot spring you'll want to stay in forever ♨️ (Original) とても静かな場所で、岩盤浴楽しみにしてたのですが、メンテナンス中で残念でした。でも温泉本当に最高です。内風呂は温かい、外風呂は少しぬるめと 冷泉最高です。ご飯もレストランで頂きましたが、美味しかったです。 また、きたいです！ずっと入っていたい温泉♨️

(Translated by Google) Day trip to Nagayu Onsen. 600 yen for adults. There is a restaurant attached and if you eat, it costs 500 yen. It seems to be a new facility and is clean. There is a raised tatami waiting room, one massage chair, and spring water that you can use freely. The changing room is small but clean and neat. The bathroom has an indoor bath and an open-air bath, and it was quiet so I was able to take a relaxing bath. It felt the cleanest (newest) in Nagayu Onsen. The family bath (2000 yen per hour) and the tatami room and bathroom were very clean. It seems easy to use for families with children. There are baby beds in the large bath. There are some souvenirs at the reception and it seems that they also offer overnight stays. (Original) 長湯温泉で日帰り利用。大人600円。お食事処が併設されていて食事をすると500円に。新しめの施設なのか綺麗。小上がりの畳の待合もあり、マッサージチェア1台、湧き水ご自由にとありました。脱衣場もこじんまりしてますが綺麗で清潔。浴室は内湯、露天があってすいていてとてもゆっくり入れました。長湯温泉では一番清潔な感じ（新しい）がしました。家族風呂（1時間2000円）も畳の部屋、浴室もとても綺麗でした。子連れの方など使いやすそう。大浴場にもベビーベッド有り。受付にお土産も少し置いていたり、宿泊もあるようです。

(Translated by Google) The staff were all very kind. The bath was also very pleasant. Maybe because it was chilly today, the open-air bath was a little cold. A young man came from the bathroom into the changing room without even drying himself off. The floor was soaking wet. He left the hair dryer he had used lying around. Did he wash away his manners along with the hot spring water? (Original) スタッフの皆さんもとても親切。 お風呂も気持ち良いです。 今日は冷え込んだからか、露天はちと冷たかった。 青年が浴室から、体も拭かずに脱衣室に。 床はべしょべしょ～ 使ったドライヤーは、放ったらかし。 マナーも、温泉と一緒に流してきたか？

(Translated by Google) I stayed in a single room. The starry sky seen from the open-air bath was beautiful. Of course, the hot spring water was of the best quality. The food was also delicious. (Original) 一人部屋に宿泊しました。露天風呂から見た星空がとても素敵でした。もちろん温泉は最高の泉質でした。食事も美味しかったです。

We had a disappointing experience at this place. Staff at winery shop and restaurant were very unwelcoming and seemed not happy to serve us which made is felt very uncomfortable. The lady at shop was not interested in giving information about wines. Since it was late we didn’t have other options and had a food there. Pizza was just average, pasta and starter not so good. However vineyard had beautiful views, just a shame that customer service is poor.

The technique for baking pizza needs to be improved. The pizza was too burnt.

The wine is rather poor and to young. The place has some great views

Delicious food... Try the cheese pizza with honey... Yum!

A very nice place.

(Translated by Google) It was right after the holidays and there were fewer staff on hand, so it seemed like a lot of customers and it was a busy time. However, all the staff, both in the dining area and in the kitchen, were always smiling and very friendly! The seasonal menu is great, and the pizza is delicious all the way to the crust! ✨ (Original) 連休明けでスタッフさんが少ない中、お客は多く大変そうでした。 しかし、ホール、キッチン、どのスタッフの方も笑顔を絶やさずとても感じ良く応対してくださいました！ 季節感のあるメニューが嬉しいですし、ピザは耳まで美味しいくて絶品です✨

(Translated by Google) Wine tasting is available for both a fee and free, and you can try a variety of delicious wines, from dry to sweet. The pizza from the stone oven workshop next door is also delicious, and it's a great location, but since people who drive can't drink, I think it would be nice if there was a shuttle service from nearby accommodation, even if it cost extra. (Original) ワインの試飲は有料、無料どちらもあり、辛口から甘口までさまざまな美味しいワインを飲めます。 隣接する石窯工房のピザも美味しく、最高のロケーションですが、運転する人は飲めないから、有料でもいいので、近辺の宿からの送迎があるといいなーと思いました。

Tasty Pour-over coffee, i could smell berries when it was being served... 👍 Not just the typical dark roast like many other coffee shops.

(Translated by Google) A simple yet stylish coffee shop in front of the station. You can choose the type of beans and even purchase the beans themselves! The cafe au lait was delicious. The food looks good too, so I'd like to try it next time. (Original) 駅前にあるシンプルオシャレなコーヒー屋さん 豆の種類が選べて、豆自体も購入できるそうです！ カフェオレが美味しかったです フードも美味しそうなので、次回試してみたいです

(Translated by Google) I visited at the end of June after seeing reviews on Google Maps. I ordered a cold brew coffee? Or maybe a regular iced coffee. You could also choose the type of beans. I don't remember what I ordered, but it was absolutely delicious. I think the description said it had a chocolate flavor. I usually drink Seven Coffee, Starbucks, and Doutor, but the flavors here were completely different. I thought it was a bit pricey at 600 yen, but it was worth it. (Original) Googleマップの口コミを見て6月末に訪問。 水出しコーヒー？だったか、普通のアイスコーヒーを注文。 豆の種類も選べました。 何にしたか覚えてないけど、めちゃくちゃ美味しかったです。 説明にはチョコレートの風味がするとか買いてあったと思います。 セブンコーヒーやスタバやドトールばかり飲んでいますが、味の種類が全く違いました。 600円で高いなと思いましたが、飲む価値あります。

(Translated by Google) This cafe has a calm atmosphere in front of the station. Instead of coffee, I had a kabosu lassi. It was sweet and sour and delicious. (Original) 駅前の落ち着いた雰囲気のカフェ。コーヒーではなく、かぼすのラッシーをいただきました。甘酸っぱくておいしい。
