Niima Soba in Karimata on the road to the Ikema Ohashi runs a morning sign-up board, and reviewers describe it as booked out by mid-morning.

Niima makes two noodles, a curly chijire and a thin straight one, and lets you choose the cut of pork on top. September 2026 reviewers describe arriving at 7:00 on weekdays and 9:00 on Saturdays to write their names on the board outside. That makes it awkward in the middle of a ride, so pass by on the way north, sign up, ride out to Ikema and come back for your slot. Karimata is the last village before the bridge.
What to order
- Pork belly soba with the curly noodles
- Thin noodles with soki
