Many times, visitors come to Japan with limited budgets or, after a few days of splurging, find themselves a little short of yen. Still, people have to eat and the old reliable fast food restaurants will be a big help in stretching out their yen.
Fortunately, City-Cost.com has an article on the prices of fast food restaurants, Western and Japanese.
It begins with:
They’re all here - McDonald’s, Burger King, KFC, Lotteria (although this comes from South Korea), Taco Bell, Shake Shack … Wendy’s!
Certainly McDonald’s and KFC are an ever present and very popular in Japan. Fans of Burger King will have to really keep eyes peeled or do some planning. Taco Bell, at the time of writing only has franchises in Tokyo. As for Wendy’s, in 2015 they teamed up with Japanese fast food chain First Kitchen to become Wendy’s Fist Kitchen, so I’m no longer sure which sub-heading they fall under. Shake Shack are fairly recent movers and, err, shakers on the Japan fast food scene. At the time of writing there were three branches in Japan, all in Tokyo. We detail how much some of classics at these fast food chains cost here in Japan.
