Japan restaurant child discount promotions

Overview

In mid‑July 2026, Yoshinoya launched a “Kodomo Genki Wari” campaign in Saitama, offering an ¥80 discount for elementary‑school children on various menu items. Simultaneously, G‑FACTORY expanded its summer food‑education sessions, adding three extra sessions for its “What’s Inside the Fish? ‘Itadakimasu’ Lesson” to accommodate more participants.

Shortly thereafter, Shabu‑shabu Onyasai introduced a “Family Support Campaign” running through August 27, offering 20% discounts on weekday all‑you‑can‑eat courses and 10% on holidays, alongside age-based reductions for children and seniors. Fujiko Restaurant also began a nationwide “Kids Menu Half‑Price Campaign” for selected dishes for children under elementary school age, running through late August.

At the end of July, Sakigake Holdings’ 札幌みそん brand launched a child‑ramen half‑price fair (¥190 per bowl) from 1 August to 27 September. Toridoll Holdings’ 丸亀製麺 offered half-price udon on 1 August and 1 September, linking sales to earthquake-relief in Ishikawa. In early August, Miyako Ramen Itami held a “karaage half‑price festival” (August 1–16), while Marugame Seimen held “Kamaage Udon Day” on August 1 and September 1.

Gusto issued various discount coupons through August 19, including ¥150 off beef steak sets and ¥100 off various items, with additional cuts on kids’ meals. Following this, Steak Gusto and Gusto announced new promotions valid through early September, including half-price coupons for six types of kids' meals and specific alcoholic beverages at Gusto.
