1000Yen Eats maps 25,000+ restaurants across 78 Japanese cities, every one with a real meal under ¥1,000. Filter by cuisine, sort by nearest or cheapest, save spots, browse any city offline. No signup, no ads, no tracking.
This started as a personal experiment: could I vibe-code a real, working app and take it all the way through publishing, App Store and all? Turns out, you can. 🙂
Mostly I just wanted a little app that shows nearby places with cheap food, konbini included, so I'd stop typing "convenience store" into Google Maps every time I got hungry.
Right now it's built on chain restaurants and konbini, the spots where the price is predictable before you walk in. Independent places are being added as I verify them.
Every pin is a real meal at ¥1,000 or under, exact yen. Filter by cuisine, sort by nearest or cheapest, save spots (no account), and browse a whole city fully offline.
New in v1.1.0: Explore mode, jump the map to any city without GPS.
No signup, no ads, no tracking. It's free, and I'd love your feedback. 千円でいける.
