Iwatake has a few slopeside cafés for lunch with evening meals served in local lodges.
The Hakuba Brew Pub overlooks the Iwatake ski field and serves locally brewed Hakuba beer and hearty Western food favourites.
Shoya Maruhachi Dining offers fantastic Robatayaki, fresh ingredients cooked in front of you on a charcoal barbeque, within a beautiful Japanese Ryokan and is well worth a trip to the Inner Village of Shinden.
Generally speaking, Iwatake is pretty quiet after dark, so a visit to neighbouring Happo One village is recommended for those wanting to enjoy evening dining & drinking.
