Ameya-Yokocho (Ameyoko) – Ueno’s Lively Street Market
Ameya-Yokocho is a lively street market that runs alongside the railway tracks between JR Ueno Station and Okachimachi Station. The street features a huge variety of small retail businesses selling seafood, fruits and vegetables, general groceries, discount clothing, accessories, cosmetics, watches, and confectionery. There are also a large number of stalls selling street-food snacks, along with cheap restaurants, cafes, and bars.

Ameyoko Street is the main street of the Ameyoko shopping district. If you head out from Ueno Station and walk towards Okachimachi Station, you’ll find that it’s the street right in the middle of the Ameyoko area, or that it’s on the east side of Ameyoko Center Building. You can hear food stall owners shouting loudly in an effort to stand out amongst the others and sell their products.
