Gero Onsen Ashiyu no Sato Yuamiya — Restaurant in Gero

You absolutely cannot miss a visit to Yuamiya when you’re in Gero Onsen! This delightful little spot is famous for its smooth and rich pudding, which is made with fresh Gero milk and Takayama eggs. What makes the experience even more special is how they keep the pudding warm—right in a hot water bath at the storefront! It’s a unique and charming touch that adds to the cozy atmosphere of the place.

But it’s not just the pudding that draws people in. Yuamiya also serves some of the best soft serve ice cream we’ve had in Gero. Creamy, rich, and perfectly sweet, it’s the perfect treat to enjoy after a day of exploring the town. What really sets this place apart, though, is the foot bath available right outside. You can indulge in their delicious soft serve while soaking your feet in a warm foot bath—talk about the perfect way to relax and recharge!

Our family loved the experience, and it was a particular hit with our kids. They were delighted to enjoy their treats while dipping their toes in the warm water, and the combination of delicious food and a soothing foot bath made for a memorable stop during our time in Gero. It’s rare to find such a fun and unique experience, and Yuamiya definitely stands out as a must-visit spot in town.

Another delightful treat is the soft ice cream with onsen tamago, offering a charming twist on traditional desserts. The matcha pudding was fantastic too. They also sell souvenirs and treats inside the shop.

A major highlight of Yuamiya is the foot bath, which allows you to soak your feet in warm spring water while savoring your desserts. There’s no time limit, so you can relax and take your time enjoying the experience. This combination of sweet treats and a soothing foot bath made a memorable and relaxing experience...

Yuamiya is a Gero treasure. What more do you want than soaking your feet in hot spring water while having a hot vanilla pudding heated by said water too?

The puddings are all nicely arranged in the spring water. At one point, the water went cold so the girl at the counter fixed it and then offered us complimentary hot puddings since the ones we had gotten were not warm (but still delicious). I also tried the regular matcha one and it was pretty great. They also have a nice sweets collection to take home. It all feels great after some onsen time, what a sweet fun town!...
