It looks like a soba noodle shop called “蕎麦saraba” is opening in Kōkomachi, near Hanshin Ashiya Station〜

Screenshot from Indeed
↑ A job listing for opening staff had been posted. It looks like it’s planned to be a “cozy soba restaurant” with 13 seats.
↑ It’s apparently opening on the 2nd floor of this building, “B-BLOCK ASHIYA.” On the 1st floor of the same building, “bistro &bar康平” and “トラットリア ジョヴァンニ” are currently operating.
↑ The floor map for “B-BLOCK ASHIYA.” Since the tableware shop “bonton.” on the 2nd floor closed this spring, it might be moving into that former space〜
Here’s the map↓
The address is B.Block 2F, 10-10 Kōkomachi, Ashiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
Area around “蕎麦saraba”
↑ If you head this way (west), you’ll come out in front of Hanshin Ashiya Station.
↑ If you go the opposite way (east), you’ll find places like “Okonomi Life KAGITA,” and it leads toward Ashiya Hondori.
↑ If you go this way (north), there are places like “芦屋 串揚げ こぱん” and the izakaya “宿六,” and it leads out to the Naruo-Mikage Line.
↑ If you go the opposite way (south), you’ll immediately reach the elevated tracks of the Hanshin Main Line. If you pass through to the other side, there are places like “欧風カレー keitan.”
Lastly
Nearby, there are soba restaurants such as “土山人” in Kawanishichō and “更科” in Chayanomachi, but surprisingly, there may not have been a dedicated soba specialty shop right near Hanshin Ashiya Station. For udon, there’s “花菜 阪神芦屋店” along the Naruo-Mikage Line〜 I’m curious to see what kind of place “蕎麦saraba” will be!
Thank you, Sasako@Ashitsū SP, for the information!
