E2 Sanyo Expressway Kodani Service Area (SA) Up Line (towards Okayama) is located in Higashihiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture, and is a large service area with restaurants, bakeries, and coffee specialty shops.
As a service area that evokes a sense of hygge, it features a Nordic-inspired exterior and a spacious environment for quality shopping and dining. *Hygge refers to a warm, cozy atmosphere that arises from human interactions in Danish.
In the restaurant, we offer a variety of carefully crafted menus using local ingredients from Hiroshima Prefecture and seasonal produce, including our original local rice bowls.
The food court offers a rich menu including udon, soba, ramen, curry, and set meals, while the takeout corner features authentic Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki "Kodani Okonomiyaki" made from scratch, as well as fried chicken.
Additionally, the specialty coffee store 'Starbucks Coffee' has many terrace seats in addition to indoor seating, providing a relaxing space to enjoy coffee during breaks in your drive.
The shopping corner not only offers Hiroshima's famous products but also exclusive souvenirs and a wide range of "bread accompaniments" for you to enjoy at home, making it a corner for new discoveries.
Furthermore, there is a full-fledged flower shop, the first of its kind on the expressways of western Japan, where you can place orders for original bouquets made from seasonal flowers.
Additionally, the bakery 'Andersen' has introduced a genuine stone oven with a diameter of 1.7 meters from Spain to the service area for the first time, providing piping hot bread baked using far-infrared effects.
