This was an incredible experience for myself, my husband, and our two kids (ages 6 and 4). The staff were so helpful and helped our kids with the process while us adults were able to work on ours. 10/10 will recommend to anyone traveling to Osaka! Perfectly located in the Dotonburi area, we walked right over to the Don Quixote Ferris wheel afterwards.

We had a fun time with this very inexpensive activity. It easy to find and our instructor did a wonderful job teaching us. They also have a sushi making class that looks like a great experience.

Quick, cheap and fun

Kristyn_C, Aug 2026

This was fun and quick. The place itself is a bit hard to find but once there you are well directed. For the price, this is a no brainer-it’s definitely worth it.

Response from Host, Aug 2026

You are right that the location can take a moment to find, and we appreciate you mentioning that — we are always looking at ways to make arrival smoother. We hope you enjoy using your handmade chopsticks, and we would love to welcome you or your friends back for another Japanese craft workshop.

Fun

Kristopher_H, Aug 2026

This was one of the most unique experiences we had during our trip to Japan! Making our own chopsticks was fun, relaxing, and something our whole family could enjoy together. The instructors were incredibly patient, friendly, and made the process easy to follow, even for beginners. We loved learning about the craftsmanship and being able to create a personalized souvenir that we'll actually use for years to come. It was much more meaningful than buying something from a gift shop. If you're visiting Japan and looking for a hands-on cultural experience that's fun for both adults and kids, I highly recommend this class. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

Response from Host, Aug 2026

Thank you so much for sharing this, Kristopher! We are delighted to hear that the chopstick making experience was a highlight of your family's trip to Japan. It is wonderful that the whole family could enjoy it together, and we are glad our instructors made the process welcoming for beginners. Knowing your handmade Chopsticks will be used for years to come is exactly what this Japanese craft workshop is all about. We hope to welcome your family back someday.
