Favorite Snacks & Food from the Convenience Store in Japan

Whether it’s 7-11, Lawson, or Family Mart, the convenience stores in Japan are the best!

There is a lot of walking, commuting, and go, go going in the cities in Japan and so having snacks in the bag or quickly grabbing food to take back to the hotel room for the next morning’s breakfast is key. Not only is it quick and easy because there seems to be convenience stores on every corner, but it is also so affordable and so oiishi delicious!

But when you first go, it can be overwhelming. So where to start?

Here are some of our family favorites that we pick up regularly on our past several trips to Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe, Sapporo, and Nagoya. Start here for comfort and then explore other options and be sure to tell me about them too! ;)
