Hello! I’m HitaPapa, and I love Onsen and Beppu .
I’m a working father of three boys, and whenever I go to Beppu, I introduce the hot springs, gourmet food, and tourist spots in my blog.
This time we came to the Okamotoya Shop in Myoban Onsen, Beppu City, Oita Prefecture!
The one I’m looking for is the very popular “Hot spring Steamed Pudding” 😆
“Hot spring Steamed Pudding” is made by steaming it with hot spring steam, and is smooth and creamy, with a bittersweet caramel flavor that is absolutely delicious .
Around the “Okamotoya Shop”, hot spring steam is spewing out, there is a hot spring flower hut, and the smell of sulfur is strong, stirring up the hot spring atmosphere .
Now let us introduce you to the “Okamotoya Shop” in Myoban Onsen!

The exterior of the “Okamotoya Shop”
The Okamotoya Shop is located in Myoban Onsen, a hot spring in Beppu that has a cloudy, sulfurous spring with a strong sulfur smell.
There are many day-trip hot spring facilities and inns in the surrounding area.
It seems that not many people know this, but the Okamotoya Shop is actually run by Okamotoya, a long-established inn in Myoban Onsen.
At Okamotoya, you can enjoy the pale blue hot spring water in the spacious open-air garden bath.
Myoban Onsen has a strong sulfur smell.
Opposite the Okamotoya Shop is Myoban Jigoku, where hot spring steam with a strong sulfur scent gushes out.
“Okamotoya” is also open for business at “Myoban Jigoku” and you can visit for 200 yen.
The parking lot is quite large and has many spaces, but there are so many tourists that it fills up at lunchtime and in the afternoon, making it impossible to park and forcing people to line up on the road.
The Okamotoya Shop opens at 8:30, so if you have the time, we recommend going early in the morning.
The parking lot gets crowded with customers, so we recommend coming in the morning!
At the Okamotoya Shop, hot spring steam is billowing out and the smell of sulfur is strong.
The soft-boiled eggs are made right outside the store.
There are tables and chairs outside, so you can enjoy your hell steamed pudding and hot spring eggs while taking in the view of Myoban Onsen.
There is also a wide variety of takeaway meals on the menu.
You can take it out and eat it outside.
The atmosphere of “Okamotoya Shop”
The interior of the restaurant is filled with the warmth of wood and has both table and counter seating.
The interior of the store is bright with plenty of sunlight.
Tea and water are free.
From your seat you can enjoy a spectacular view of Myoban Onsen.
You can look down on Beppu Bay and the city in the distance, and the row of hot spring huts in front of you adds to the hot spring atmosphere.
The restaurant fills up at lunchtime, so if you want to relax inside, we recommend going early in the morning.
You can see the magnificent view of Beppu and Myoban Onsen.
Menu of “Okamotoya Shop”
In addition to the extremely popular “Hot spring Steamed Pudding”, they also have a wide variety of other menu items such as “Udon,” “Chicken Tempura,” and “Drinks.”
We also have a wide selection of take-out options.
Hot spring Steamed Pudding (440 yen)
Okamotoya shop’s specialty “Hot spring Steamed Pudding”!
A finely textured pudding topped with plenty of dark caramel sauce 😆👍
Looks delicious!
When you enjoy pudding and green tea at a hot spring resort, you’ll feel like you’re eating Japanese sweets.
A creamy pudding.
It’s extremely smooth to the touch!
It’s very sweet, but the bitter caramel sauce makes the sweetness feel milder.
Delicious😆👍
Enjoy the blackened part of the top of the pudding where the caramel has soaked in!
The bittersweetness is the best!
It has a bitter, adult taste.
The bittersweet caramel is a perfect combination with the smooth, sweet pudding.
The plate is covered with plenty of caramel sauce.
It’s also delicious to eat just the white pudding part and then lick off the caramel sauce.
Although it is steamed with hot spring steam that is rich in the scent of sulfur, there is no smell of sulfur at all.
The pudding is a little pricey at 440 yen, but it’s a pudding that can only be eaten here, and if you think of it as the cost of a relaxing cafe where you can enjoy the view of Myoban Onsen, it might be cheap.
The finely textured pudding and bittersweet caramel sauce are absolutely delicious!
The surrounding area is filled with the smell of sulfur from the hot spring steam!
Right next to the Okamotoya Shop is the Yunohana Hut, which is run by Okamotoya and produces natural Yunohana.
This is an old-fashioned method, where the hot spring steam gushing out of the ground naturally creates yunohana inside the hut.
Around the Okamotoya Shop, hot spring steam is spewing out from the ground all over the place.
The sulfur-scented steam is incredibly wonderful!
There are many parts of the ground that are stained white and yellow by hot spring components.
It’s great to take a break at “Okamotoya Shop” where you can enjoy the spectacular view of Myoban Onsen and the scent of sulfur 😊♨️
The hot spring steam gives off a strong sulfur scent.
