Delicious oyaki!

We basically pigged out on oyaki, as I'm a bit nervous about where I'll get my next meal from in Japan! Nice to have local food, not have to struggle with language/working out if something can be made vegan and for it to be delicious! We had the following oyaki and would recommend them all 😜: mixed veg, radish, pumpkin, mushroom and some sort of green veg. Enjoy!

Delicious warm dumplings!

Omg these are so good. I tried nearly every flavour, they were all good, radish and mushroom both amazing! Available inside the train station and a couple of other locations in Nagano

Really good food especially in the winter

The dumplings are really good and tasty, can either grab them on the go or get them heated up! The location changed to the street along before the Zenkoji Temple. #Veganuary

Stand Irohado au Nagano Tokyu (1BF)

J'ai trouvé un petit stand Irohado au magasin Nagano Tokyu (1BF). J'y ai pris 3 Oyaki : Nozawana, Patate douce et pâte de haricots rouges sucrée. Tous les 3 étaient très bons, mais un peu secs.

Pros: Beaucoup d'options !

Cons: Rien n'indiquait que c'était vegan

Tasty

You can find this store in the train station, nearby mall and on the walk to Zenko-ji temple. They are very tasty and one of the only vegan options in town. If they aren't warm make sure you ask them to warm them up. Our favourite flavour was oriental veg.

Amazing!

We were so pleased with this place!
We tried lots of filling and each one of them was delicious. We recommend green onion, the pumpkin and the azuki.
It’s located inside Midori at 2f, stand number 4.
There is another store near the Zenkoji.

Must try

I came here twice and have tried every flavour LMAO except green onion because I didn’t want my breath to smell. I don’t know which to recommend but they’re all delicious - it honestly comes down to your personal taste and preference. My top 3 were spinach, radish and mixed veg. But I also very much enjoyed them all, truly. They’re soft, squishy and the flavour of the filling shines through without the taste of salt or sugar (idk whether they add this but the flavour of the veg used is authentically vegetable-y)

Delicious train food!

Got a bunch for my train trip to Tokyo.
Lots to choose from. Around 220¥ a pop with delicious filling. Shop is easy to find inside Nagano station, on the second floor of the little shopping mall inside the station.

All Vegan Oyaki

We first stopped by their branch by Zenko-ji Temple (not listed on Happy Cow) and got the pumpkin, miso onion, shimeji, and mixed veggie oyaki. Everything was so delicious that we went back for two more of the shimeji ones. Then we visited the Nagano station branch and had one more of the shimeji and one maitake. Really really recommend! So good! They also sell them frozen in some souvenir shops around, even saw them in Karuizawa. Get some, if you have a chance!

Delicious, fast and unique

I am a big Oyaki fan thanks to Irohado. Fantastic selection of flavours and perfect to eat nearby or take away. They have full range frozen as well to stock up the freezer. Perfect winter travel food.

Pros: Fresh or frozen, Good range.

Cons: I live very far away

Delicious, Unique, Fast

Open and fully operational as of October 2020. Very tasty, cheap, and fast. I particularly liked the radish and mixed vegetable buns. A good option to pick up for a train ride or snack.

Pros: All vegan, Variety

Pretty sure it’s fully vegan EDIT: YES CHANGED

Firstly, these oyaki are AMAZING. I’ve had them four times now and they’re just so so good. My savory favorites are green onion and mixed vegetables and my favorite sweet is azuki bean. Secondly, I asked the staff and they said all the balls are vegan. Might’ve been only on that specific day, but I haven’t seen them serve any balls with meat. I’d assume the place is at least fully vegetarian, maybe vegan.

Pros: Might be fully vegan, Delicious food, Instant serving

Tasty Oyaki

Our first time trying oyaki! We tried the mushroom, mixed veg, green onion, potato, and nozawana. The mixed veg was the best!

Pros: Takes credit card, Easy to find, English signs

Delicious vegan oyaki

We were very pleased to have delicious vegan oyaki in such a convenient location. We ate here multiple times trying almost every flavour. The adzuki bean ones were slighty sweet and we liked having that one for dessert. Of the savoury ones, we particularly enjoyed the mixed vegetable and one of the types of mushroom varieties.

Grab some to take home, too.

Easy access if travelling through Nagano train station. Eat some there (or the lounge area in that food court) and take some with you, too. We ate there in the morning, as we arrived in Nagano for a day trip, then grabbed some for the train back, as well as some frozen ones to eat at our on-snow accommodation! Staff were very friendly and helpful. The buckwheat flour dough has a lovely non-gummy texture and every filling we tried (almost all of them) was delicious- very hard to narrow our choices down.

Pros: All vegan, Quick, healthy food, Delicious!

Cons: Not a cafe (but seating options available)

Amazing find in Nagano

In the middle of Nagano train station was the last place I expected to find vegan food. Not only that, vegan local specialties. Super sweet people - I asked via Google Translate to make sure all vegan and they are! SO. GOOD.

Pros: All vegan!! , Lots of selection , Not expensive

So good!

After reading the reviews, had to try them all!🥴😄 well not all but several... had the thistle, red bean, green onion, mushroom, and pumpkin. My favorites were pumpkin and mushroom! Will definitely be having some more tomorrow before returning to Tokyo!

Pros: Easy to find

Cons: Wish they were a bit bigger 😄
