Ippudo Daimyo Main Store
SaveIppudo's main ramen shop in Fukuoka, with two bowls named after the store itself.
A store-only ramen is on the list here, so you can order something no other Ippudo serves.
MoreWhat kind of place
In the Daimyo neighborhood of Fukuoka's central ward, this is the original Ippudo, the shop the whole ramen brand grew out of. The menu here includes a ramen you cannot order at any other Ippudo, and two of the bowls carry the shop's own name: honten shiromaru and honten akamaru.
Sources and evidence (3)
- Besides cash it takes credit cards (VISA, Mastercard, JCB, AMEX, Diners Club, DISCOVER and UnionPay), transit IC cards, QR code payments and e-money, so you can walk in without any cash on you.source
- The phone number, 0570-031-206, is a navi-dial line the caller pays for, and nothing is stated about whether it can be reached from an overseas cell phone.source
- The ramen listed for this shop comes to three bowls, honten shiromaru, honten akamaru and Hakata soy sauce ramen, with no prices given.source
With kidsThe part that matters
Ramen comes out hot and it does not wait, which is a problem when one of you is holding a baby.
Ask, and the kitchen will cook the bowls one at a time, so one of you eats while the other holds the baby and then you swap, and neither bowl sits going cold.
The shop keeps children's chairs, so you don't have to carry a seat in, and it will bring a plastic sharing plate, small forks and a cutter to shorten the noodles.
The free drink is caffeine-free rooibos tea, which catches some kids off guard the first time, so ask and the staff will bring water instead.
It is open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., with last orders at 9:30, so an evening visit means having your order in before then.
Sources and evidence (4)
- The free drink is caffeine-free rooibos tea rather than water. Children tasting it for the first time are sometimes taken aback by the flavor, and you can ask for water instead; some shops, such as the food court locations, do not serve the rooibos at all.source
- No ticket machine: order from the counter staff. Kiwami Honten Akamaru ¥1,420, served in 3-4 minutes.source
- The bowl came in under five minutes. Spicy sprouts and takana are free if you ask.source
- Shiromaru ¥1,290, Akamaru ¥1,420, Hakata shoyu ¥1,390. Lunch sets weekdays 11-15; eggs peeled and onions cut by hand.source
By age0-1 / 2-3 / 4-6
- Ages 0-1You can bring baby food in and feed the baby first; if you want your own ramen after that, you can ask them to time the bowls to suit. When someone has to hold the baby, the shop offers "dakko change" — the bowls made one at a time, staggered — so the two of you can swap and both eat while it is hot. The water on the table is free rooibos tea, caffeine-free.The store page lists just four services — store-only ramen, credit cards, transit IC cards and a child's chair — and says nothing about a diaper changing table, a nursing room or strollers. The chairs vary by store: a tall high chair, one that clamps to the table, a Bumbo seat set on a sofa. The chain notes that when the shop is busy, or the staff member is still in training, they may not offer it, so ask for dakko change yourself.
- Ages 2-3Besides the child's chair, out come a plastic sharing bowl, a small spoon and fork, and noodle scissors. For a child who cannot finish a whole bowl, you add a half-size kaedama of noodles to your own and share it into their dish. On the way out, one candy per child.The water served is rooibos tea; a child tasting it for the first time can be startled by how sharp it is, and you can ask for plain water instead. Toppings and the chilli paste can be left out or served on a separate dish — no spring onion, no wood ear mushroom, no spicy miso in the akamaru — though anything mixed in during prep may not be possible, and none of this is a promise of allergy handling. Open every day 11:00-22:00, last order 21:30.
- Ages 4-6Three bowls are on the list here — honten shiromaru, honten akamaru and Hakata shoyu ramen — including ones no other Ippudo serves.Akamaru comes with spicy miso, so ask for it left out if they don't take heat. The whole shop is non-smoking. Alongside cash they take credit cards (VISA, Mastercard, JCB, AMEX, Diners Club, DISCOVER, UnionPay), transit IC cards, QR payments and e-money, so you can walk in without yen in your pocket. The phone number, 0570-031-206, is a navi-dial line charged to the caller, and whether it can be reached from an overseas mobile is not stated.

Where it is
1-13-14 Daimyo, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka-shi, Fukuoka 810-0041source
Before you go
- The shop keeps children's chairs, so you don't have to carry a portable seat, though how many there are, whether to reserve one, and what ages they suit are not stated.source
- These services apply at basically every Ippudo except the food court locations, the official note says, and it adds that when the shop is busy or a staff member is in training they may not be offered, so say what you need.source
- Toppings a child dislikes and the spicy seasoning can be left out or served on the side, such as green onion, wood ear mushroom or the chili miso in akamaru, though anything mixed in during prep may not be removable. This is about preferences, not a promise about allergies.source
Basics
- Hours: Open daily 11:00-22:00. Last orders are taken 30 minutes before closing, at 21:30source
- Time to allow: 45 min
Basics in detail (4)
Getting there
- The address is 1-13-14 Daimyo, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka (810-0041), and the store code 1001 is what tells it apart from the brand's other shops, such as the Nishi-dori branch.source
- The coordinates in the store page's structured data are 33.587850 / 130.395851, which is consistent with the official address in 1-chome Daimyo, Chuo-ku.source
Hours and closures
- It is open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day with no difference by day of the week, per the structured data on the store page, and since the page notes that last orders come 30 minutes before closing, that puts last orders at 9:30 p.m.source
- Last orders are 30 minutes before closing, at 9:30 p.m., so a dinner visit means having your order in by then.source
