Knuckle is a little taste of Americana in east Hokkaido. The burgers are somewhat Japanese style, in that the beef patty is small compared to the bun. The toppings, however, were plentiful. The onion rings were very well done! They offer a lovely little patio but you can also sit inside where the decorations speak to a trendy burger bar in North America.

Recommend!

The shop itself is very small, and in the winter seemed to only offer take away as an option. Inside is a nostalgic collection of American paraphernalia. In the summer, we were able to sit on the veranda to eat. The burger itself is one of the better ones I’ve had in Hokkaido, but I’d recommend getting an extra patty if you’re looking for the taste of home. The onion rings are also good. I’ll be returning to try a different burger on the menu next time!
