Good to know
Most visitors eat in three parts of Sapporo: Susukino for dinner and late at night (miso ramen, jingisukan, crab, zangi, night parfaits), the Sapporo Station area for meals on arrival and departure days, and the two seafood markets — Nijo Market near Odori and the Curb Market to the west — for seafood in the morning. The 16 places below are grouped by what you eat, with hours, closing days and access checked on 20 October 2026 against each place's own site or Sapporo's official tourism site.
Late hours are in Susukino. On their listed hours, Daruma serves jingisukan until 5:00, Keyaki serves miso ramen until 2:00 and Parfaiteria PaL serves parfaits until 2:00 on Fridays and Saturdays. The markets keep morning hours: the Curb Market gives 6:00–15:00, and Nijo Market about 7:00 to about 17:00 depending on the shop.
Stellar Place, the shopping building at Sapporo Station, closed from 15 to 18 October 2026 after a fire on 14 October; the Hanamaru sushi branch there gave 19 October as its reopening day. For which dishes to prioritise rather than where to eat them, see Sapporo Food, Ranked under In depth.
