Hamburger vending machine
November 2nd, 2009 by James
“Nanikore Chin Hakkei” finds a restaurant in Tokyo’s Katsushika ward that has a hamburger vending machine:
The vending machine sells hamburgers for 100 yen each. Upon inserting a single 100 yen coin, a hamburger quickly comes out of the machine. However, a second try fails to produce a hamburger. It turns out that it can only hold a single hamburger and is operated manually by the man who runs the store. If you want more than one burger, you’ve got to go inside and order it.
After his restaurant got featured on TV for its weird vending machine, the owner installed a second manual vending machine that sells 300 yen “royal” burgers (normal burgers with some added tomato and bacon).
If you want check it out for yourself, you can find it here on google maps:

So there’s no Public Safety Food Inspectors in Japan eh?
That is, I am going to this place when I go to Tokyo Feb 2010!
They have a similar system in The Netherlands with various fast food in vending machines. There’s usually a few lined up in a row so that they don’t run out as quickly as this.
Good stuff
lol, i like how it says ”バーガー 自動販売機？” a burger vending machine? whhaaaaaaaaaatttt
you can read/write kanji ??
Is that sarcasm or are you really asking? I can never tell on this site anymore. I’m an EAS major and I lived in Japan before so, yup.
Whoa, this is so close to where I live!
I’d even try it if it weren’t for fears of old burgers as Vonskippy points out.
this is really is really some luxury
He he, nice… it’s like erm… “I’m hungry, but ~ Do I dare??.. or should spend my 100yen on hookers?”…. hmmm, decisions in life can be hard sometimes.
Hahaha! This is hilarious! I actually think it’s kind of a cool publicity thing by the owner of the restaurant. I wonder if his hamburger recipes are any good, though. Even if they are, are they still good after sitting in a vending machine for a while? Eeek!
