01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Substantial burgers built around 100% beef patties and natural yeast buns anchor the menu at apre diner. The selection spans straightforward staples like the Classic Burger and a rich Cheddar-topped cheeseburger, egg-and-tartar sauce pairings, and kicky variations enlivened by homemade salsa or jalapeños. Diners looking for bolder combinations will also find specialty options, such as a seared-cheese burger with aromatic grilled cheese or the Texas Burger stacked with bacon, corn chips, and barbecue sauce.
Each burger comes served alongside homemade French fries and consommé soup for a hearty plate. Those wanting more can upgrade their fries to a larger portion or double portion, while others might swap them for a mini Caesar salad or choose to upsize the beef patty itself. The house-made fries are also sold individually, accompanied by ketchup and tartar sauce, making them an easy add-on to share.
Filling Rice Plates and Generous Add-ons
For days when rice feels like the right foundation instead of buns, apre diner offers a dependable spread of rice plates. The taco rice combines homemade chili beans and salsa with seared cheese, accommodating add-ons like fried egg, avocado, or pickled jalapeños. Diners with larger appetites can step up to the "Taco Grande" with double the toppings or the fully loaded "Taco Mucho." Other distinct plates include an omelette rice cooked with crumbled burger patty meat and finished with ketchup and tartar sauce, New York–style chicken over rice dressed in hot chili and yogurt sauce, and a coarsely ground beef loco moco.
Occupying a casual neighborhood street corner in Minato, Chuo Ward, the shop is an easy stop for solo diners looking for an unhurried lunch. Standard diner drinks such as Coca-Cola, ginger ale, and brewed coffee—hot or iced—round out a dependable midday meal.
