About this app

1000Yen Eats helps you find cheap meals in Japan. Every restaurant on the map serves at least one main dish for Y1,000 or under.

WHATS INSIDE
• 26,423 restaurants across 78 Japanese cities
• Real yen prices — sourced from menus, not guessed
• JST-aware Open Now toggle (works correctly across timezones)
• Cuisine filters: ramen, sushi, izakaya, curry, conbini, café and more
• Tap a restaurant for hours, price range, address, photos
• Save spots you want to try
• Works offline — download a city, browse without signal

NO SIGNUP REQUIRED
Use the whole app anonymously. Optional sign in if you want to log meals, build streaks, and follow friends across devices.

PRIVACY-FIRST
• No ad networks, no tracking SDKs, no analytics SDKs
• Location is used only while the app is open, never stored on our servers
• Your meal logs and photos are private by default

WHO ITS FOR
Travellers on a budget. Students living in Japan. Anyone who wants to eat well without spending much.

WHAT ITS NOT
Not a review site. Not a ranking. Not a reservation engine. Just a map of places where you can eat for under Y1,000.

DATA SOURCES
Restaurant locations and basic info from OpenStreetMap and Google Places. Map tiles from Mapbox. Provided as-is — always verify hours and prices with the restaurant before going.
