Hanamaru Udon is celebrating “Hanamaru Udon Day” on August 7 by offering a special Gratitude Udon topped with three large shrimp tempura for a special price of ¥870 (tax included). This offer runs from August 7 to August 31, 2026, at most Hanamaru Udon locations across Japan.
For those planning a casual meal during summer nationwide, Hanamaru Udon is an easy choice to enjoy a satisfying bowl of Sanuki-style udon at an excellent value. The campaign also features a collaboration with Sanrio’s character “Hanamaru Obake,” adding fun activities and collectible items for families during the summer holiday.
About Hanamaru Udon’s Gratitude Campaign
To thank customers, Hanamaru Udon is serving a limited-time menu item called “Hanamaru Gratitude Udon,” which includes three generous jumbo shrimp tempura atop hot or cold bukkake udon, garnished with grated daikon radish and decorative fish cake. The dipping sauce is served separately to keep the tempura crispy or allow it to be mixed in for extra flavor. This dish offers about ¥300 worth of savings compared to the regular price, all for ¥870 (tax included). The small size is the only option available.
