Things to do at Narita Airport

Restaurants & Cafés

There are lots of Japanese and international food options in Narita, but the food options before and after security are different.

Sushi Kyotatsu is a favourite place for passengers looking for sushi before their flight in Terminal 1. There are also other restaurants, such as Starbucks and some Japanese gyros, at the terminal.

There are the sushi restaurant Tsukiji Sushiko and the vegetarian noodle store T's Tantan at Terminal 2. So there are also the familiar fast food restaurants such as McDonald's and Starbucks.

The style of dining at Terminal 3 is more casual. It's perfect for cheap airlines, it has Japanese food such as noodles, rice dishes, and quick service food for people who want to get a snack before they get on the plane.

As one of the restaurants is on the opposite side of security and the other is airside, please refer to the airport's directory before deciding on where to eat.

Shops & Lifestyle Stores

Narita is one of the best duty-free shopping, cosmetics, confections and Japanese souvenirs shops in Japan.

Fa-So-La is the biggest retail developer at the airport, with duty-free and souvenir shops in the terminals. Purchases of cosmetics, perfumes, alcoholic drinks, tobacco and Japanese souvenirs are available at the store.

Boxed sweets (Tokyo Banana, Shiroi Koibito) for travel are popular Japanese gifts. The widest choice of shopping is provided in Terminal 1, and Terminal 2 provides the widest and most convenient choice of souvenir and convenience stores; Terminal 3 provides a less extensive choice of shopping and great convenience for souvenir and convenience stores.

If shopping is essential, time it to be done before catching the bus. During busy times of international departure, large duty-free stores can become very busy.

Lounges & Relax Spots

A couple of airline lounges are located in Terminal 1. Facilities, such as ANA SUITE LOUNGE and ANA LOUNGE, are available on the South Wing side for passengers who meet the requirements, and other airlines are offering facilities or access to them in other parts of the terminal.

The JAL First Class Lounge and Sakura Lounge are located at Terminal 2, and are available to qualifying passengers. There are independent lounge facilities, such as I.A.S.S facilities at Narita, too, which are subject to availability based on the cards, memberships or entry conditions. Always find out which lounge is nearest to your departure gate. Narita is large, and before you get on a plane, you can find yourself in a rush to be at a lounge a long way from your gate.

Other Activities & Unique Features

In addition, there are also observation decks at Narita from which to observe the movement of aircraft. Terminal 1 has its observation deck on the 5th floor, and the observation deck at Terminal 2 provides views throughout the airport.

Another facility is the availability of capsule accommodation at 9 hours' Narita Airport, Terminal 2. It may be helpful for those who have overnight flights or very early morning flights.

Suggested Layover Itineraries

3-hour layover

Please stay within the airport premises. Finish (or do) your connection before eating something Japanese, and then take a stroll to chill out by your departure gate or appropriate lounge.

5–6 hour layover

Eat well, buy from the duty-free and go to an observation deck when immigration circumstances and connection permit. Please have some leeway when leaving the airport.

8+ hour layover

A longer layover to visit Narin City, where the Shinshoji Temple is located. It's usually a good option for extremely long layovers, and a visit to central Tokyo will take a long time.
