Lucky Pierrot
Only in Hakodate: Local burger chain serves zany, cheap, tasty fast food. Try the Chinese Chicken Burger!
Lucky Pierrot is not your ordinary fast-food chain. They serve themed burgers that are out of this world.
Furthermore, every one of their shops also has a fun (and even strange) interior. But you won’t find Lucky Pierrot restaurants outside Hakodate, Hokkaido Prefecture. Their management would like to keep it that way.
Lucky Pierrot is a local Hakodate stalwart with 17 restaurants in and around Hakodate. Lucky Pierrot is best known for its juicy burgers, the most famous being the “Chinese Chicken Burger.” This burger contains their signature fried chicken glazed with a sweet and tangy sauce.
They’ve got plenty of other burger choices, including the Lucky Egg Burger (No. 2 best seller), the Pork Cutlet Burger (No. 3 best seller), the Lucky Cheeseburger (No. 4 best seller), the Genghis Khan burger (lamb meat), the Shrimp Mayo Burger…the list goes on and on.
Beyond burgers, their menu is huge and has something for everyone. They’ve even got Japanese-style curry branded as “Milk Curry.” Quite frankly, the milk is difficult to taste, but the curry is still darn good. Their best seller in the curry department is one with the same “Chinese Chicken.” Also on the menu are hamburg steak, omurice (omelet with rice inside), donburi, spaghetti, french fries, ice cream, and more.
Pierrot” means “clown” in French — hence their clown logo.
But Lucky Pierrot’s interior doesn’t really feel like they’re going for the circus theme. Instead, it has gaudy and over-the-top religious decorations, including angels complete with halos. It’s all quite strange and doesn’t make much sense. But that’s probably the whole point. It’s a lot of fun.
If you’re seeking tasty and fun fast food in a unique setting, make sure to check out Hakodate’s pride and joy, Lucky Pierrot.

The first Goryokaku Tower (60 meters in height) was built in December 1964 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Goryokaku. Although the former tower was a popular attraction among the citizens and tourists for 41 years, it was demolished in June 2006 after entrusting its mission to the new tower.
The new tower (second generation) opened on April 1, 2006, and stands 107 meters tall (including the height of a lightning rod). From the observation deck, you can see Mount Hakodate, the Tsugaru Straits, and the Yokotsu Mountain Range, as well as a superb view of the star-shaped moat shining on the grounds of the national historic site Goryokaku. The observation deck has the Goryokaku Historic Corridor with exhibitions for learning about the history of Goryokaku, the See-Through Floor, which is made of clear hardened glass to look down through the glass floor, gift shop, cafe stand, and more.
The new tower itself is designed to express the special features of Goryokaku. The observation deck has a pentagon shape, and even the tower body is star-shaped in section to thoroughly feature the shape of the star fort.

The Starbucks Set In A Historic Warehouse Along Japan's Hakodate Bay
Coffee-loving travel enthusiasts have some interesting itineraries, thanks to impressive Starbucks locations worldwide. Whether marveling at artwork or sampling unique seasonal recipes found only in specific countries, Starbucks stores can keep explorers fully engaged. In Japan, Starbucks' regional stores have been designed with local history and traditions in mind, and the stores themselves have set out to deliver modern coffee culture while simultaneously honoring days of the past.
In the port city of Hakodate in Japan's Hokkaido region in the north, one Starbucks location is located in a restored early 20th-century building that is part of the Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse district. Hakodate was one of Japan's first international trading ports, and the Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse was the area's first commercial warehouse. This collection of buildings has been renovated and converted into restaurants and shops. The two-story Starbucks is ready to keep visitors fueled for busy days of recreation and business — or easy days relaxing with a warm cup of joe.
Though the building features industrial details and large, glass windows, the Hakodate Bay Starbucks is imbued with rustic old-world charm thanks to its lumber exterior and original wooden-paneled flooring. On the top floor, an outdoor patio offers visitors views of Hakodate Bay, and a fire pit keeps guests warm during colder seasons.
The original warehouses date back to 1887, but a fire resulted in a rebuild in 1909, and the collection of buildings that make up the warehouse district has remained ever since. In addition to the Starbucks store, the complex boasts a chapel, beer hall, and various souvenir stores for visitors to browse and take a piece of Hakodate history home with them.
Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse district and Hakodate certainly have enough to offer to keep any tourist busy for the day, with nearly 30 landmark Starbucks

The name of this slope can be traced to Hakodate Hachimangu Shrine, which used to be located nearby. Climb the slope from the Kanemori Red Brick Warehouses, look back, and you will be able to see the sky, the bay, and the stone pavement. This is one of the most famous views in Hakodate, along with the nighttime city view seen from Mt. Hakodate.
Mashumaru, a ship anchored at the bay and open to the public as the Hakodate Seikan Ferry Memorial Hall, can also be seen in the background.
Near Motomachi Park, Western-style buildings and cafes renovated from old houses can be seen along the Motoizaka and Hiyorizaka slopes, so the area is an ideal spot to take a walk.
Nishi Koko Mae bus stop, located on top of Hachimanzaka, is another famous spot that has been used in commercials and movies. In winter, the Hakodate Illumination is held along these streets, creating fantastic scenery.

By signing the Treaty of Shimoda in 1855, the government of Japan committed itself to providing land and housing for the Russian Consulate. By the Treaty of 1858, the right of permanent residence in Japan was granted to Russian diplomatic representatives. Then the first Consulate of the Russian Empire was opened in Hakodate.
Late in 1858, the first mission of the Russian Consulate, led by Iosif Antonovich Goshkevich arrived in the Japanese city of Hakodate. The Russian mission was temporarily housed in the local Buddhist temples. The Consul, I. A. Goshkevich immediately started negotiations with the Japanese authorities to allocate a plot of land for the mission. Finally, they agreed to allot land in the coastal zone on the foothills of Mt. Hakodate, the present location.
In 1860 a two-story consulate building, four one-story buildings for accommodating the Russian families, and an orthodox church attached to the consulate were first built on this land. A priest Vasily Makhov, who arrived in Hakodate in 1859, did not remain for long. In 1861 Priest Nikolai, who was later canonized for his activities in Japan as St. Nikolai of Japan was sent after Makhov. St. Nikolai became the first priest who conveyed the Orthodoxy to Japan.
In the same land, they also built an elementary school, a sewing school for girls, and a hospital, which contributed to developing the education and medical treatment for Japanese. Officers of the consulate gladly taught people medical technology, photography, sewing, baking, and other arts of living to the people in Hakodate.
The Russian Consulate staff moved to Tokyo in 1872 and the church was transferred to the Orthodox Church in Japan. At the same time, St. Nikolas established a base in Tokyo to begin his missionary work throughout Japan.
The current Hakodate Orthodox Church was constructed as a replacement for a wooden church that had burned down in 1907. It was completed in 1916 and is an iconic example of Russian Byzantine
The Funadama Shrine, which stands guard over "Tomoe Port" from the foot of Mount Hakodate, is said to be the oldest shrine in Hokkaido. The shrine enshrines the god of tidal currents and the god of the sea and is said to benefit maritime navigation and road traffic. Because of the shrine's significance as a place of safety on sea routes, it is also visited by students preparing for entrance examinations and job hunting who decide their life paths.
The Tsugaru Straits, which Hakodate faces, have long been the scene of many maritime accidents due to the rough currents. Legend has it that the famous medieval warlord “Minamoto no Yosh*tsune” was nearly lost on a voyage, but could land safely in Hakodate thanks to the blessings of the deity Funatama Myojin. Legend has it that a child god appeared to “Minamoto no Yosh*tsune”, who was thirsty and looking for water after landing, and when he looked in the direction he was pointing, he saw clear water gushing out of the rock.
At the shrine office, a "rudder charm" with a picture of a ship's rudder woven into it is awarded, and is popular among people involved in the fishing and shipping industries, students preparing for entrance exams, and young people looking for work.

Old Public Hall of Hakodate Ward
旧函館区公会堂
East meets West in exquisite style
Following the opening of the Hakodate Port to foreign trade, European influence began shaping the city. A prime example of this is the Old Public Hall of Hakodate. Completed in 1910, the hall is a stunning showcase of elegant colonial architecture.
Quick Facts
-The glamorous building replaced the old town hall, which was lost in the Great Fire of Hakodate in 1907
-Imperial visitors used the elegant guest rooms here during their stays in Hakodate
-The main hall is still used today for concerts and other events
-The balconies offer spectacular views of Hakodate Bay
A bright, bold architectural gem
The large symmetrical windows and balconies balance the building, while the blue-gray walls contrast with the yellow window frames to catch the eye. Nestled among green trees, the elevated structure offers spectacular panoramic views of Hakodate Bay.
A fusion of Western and Japanese design
While the structure of the Old Public Hall is predominantly colonial, Japanese design traditions are still evident. You can find elements of the Japanese aesthetic in the scrollwork of the columns and balconies outdoors. Inside, look for Japanese patterns integrated into the decor of the art nouveau rooms.
