What to eat at Takashimaya Food Hall

When it comes to food options, Takashimaya has a huge selection from cafes and restaurants to kiosks and food court stalls, but this list will mostly focus on the mall’s iconic and sprawling Takashimaya Food Hall at Basement 2. It’s long been a pit stop for locals and visitors looking for imported Japanese food gifts or just a quick Japanese meal. A variety of bakeries, street food kiosks and ice cream joints are also clustered here.

Here are the 20 best places to visit at Takashimaya Food Hall.
