What the guides say about mAAch ecute Kanda Manseibashi
The area around the shrine has some of the best old-style eating in the city. Kanda Yabu Soba has served hand-cut soba since 1880 and is a short walk south of the shrine. Expect a queue at festival lunchtime. If you're after heat, Kikanbo near Kanda Station does chilli and sansho miso ramen. mAAch ecute Kanda Manseibashi, a row of cafes and shops in a converted railway viaduct, is a calm place to reset between processions.
