Features and Specialties
- The “Conscience of Hokuriku” Welcoming You at Fukui’s Gateway—An Essential “Hachiban” to Start and End Your Trip : Located within the Fukui Station building “Curufu Fukui Station,” this is a sanctuary for residents of Ishikawa and Fukui. Between travels or immediately upon arrival, Hokuriku’s most famous “Number 8” warmly welcomes your stomach and soul.
- Immovable Popularity. “Yasai Ramen” Where Vegetable Sweetness Melds : The symbol of Hachiban Ramen—crunchy, abundant vegetables. Their umami, finished rapidly over high heat, entwines with special thick crinkly noodles, letting you fully enjoy the “taste of Hokuriku” that you’ll never tire of.
- Unwavering Reassurance Promised by “Hachikama”: Convenience and Quality Unique to a Station Building : The red “8” fish cake—Hachikama—reigns in the center of the bowl. Despite the prime station location, it continues to provide the same quality and vitality as roadside shops, supported by everyone from tourists to busy professionals.

Positive Review Trends
- Extremely convenient being directly connected to the station. Having Hachiban as soon as I arrive in Fukui is my routine.
- Service is very fast and polite. Reassuring to use even when time is limited.
- Consistently delicious. I personally like “Shio” (salt) best as I can taste the vegetables.
Improvements/Negative Review Trends
- It gets very crowded during lunch and after train arrivals; often a wait at the entrance.
- The shop isn’t very large, so be careful if you have large luggage (using station lockers is recommended).
Summary & Recommendations
Recommended For:
- Travelers wanting to enjoy Hokuriku’s soul food “easily but surely” right upon arrival or before departure from Fukui.

Tips for Your Visit:
- Prime location inside “Curufu Fukui Station” directly connected to JR Fukui Station. It’s very bustling during lunch breaks and evening rushes, but the staff’s brilliant coordination makes for quick turnover. Start with “Yasai Ramen” in your preferred soup. While inhaling the Hokuriku air, savor Hachiban’s history along with Hachikama.
