There are various places to eat on the mountain including a large cafeteria serving well-priced food from ramen to hotdogs and tap beer, a convenience store, and several small eateries.

In the village, Japanese bar-style fare such as yakitori, edamame, gyoza, and more dominates the food scene. Many establishments serve a mix of standard Japanese and Western fare, such as The Lodge Cafe at the Madarao Mountain Lodge, where sushi and sashimi sits on the menu alongside classic fish and chips and chicken parmigiana. To drink there is everything from espresso coffee to the local ‘Shizuoka’ sake and craft beer.

Traditional Japanese food and the freshest seafood is found in downtown Iiyama, the city about 30 minutes from Madarao. (Note, the last bus leaves Iiyama at about 9 pm!)
