Kamaage Makino Udon Hakata Bus Terminal Branch

If you're visiting Fukuoka, Kamaage Makino Udon Hakata Bus Terminal Branch is a must-try spot loved by locals. Located on the B1 floor of Hakata Bus Terminal, right next to Hakata Station, it's a convenient place to grab a quick meal between sightseeing.

The udon here is freshly boiled straight from the pot, giving it a delightfully chewy and satisfying texture. You can choose your preferred noodle firmness from three options: soft, medium, or firm. One unique feature is how the noodles absorb the dashi broth and expand over time, creating an ever-changing texture. To keep the balance just right, each bowl comes with a small kettle of extra broth for refills, ensuring you enjoy every last bite.

The most popular dish is the Goboten Udon, featuring crispy burdock tempura paired perfectly with a savory broth made from Rishiri kelp. Another favorite is the Niku Udon, generously topped with sweet and savory simmered beef, making for a hearty and satisfying meal. With a wide variety of toppings available, you can customize your bowl to suit your taste.

One of the best things about this shop is its fast service—your order is served almost immediately. Even if you're short on time, you can enjoy authentic Fukuoka-style udon quickly and casually, making it an ideal stop for travelers on the go.
