MOTHERS Inc. to Open Fukuoka's First "MORETHAN CAFÉ RESTAURANT LOUNGE" on April 20th

MOTHERS Inc. (Headquarters: Musashino City, Tokyo; Representative Director: Ryogo Yasumura) will open "MORETHAN CAFÉ RESTAURANT LOUNGE" within THE KNOT FUKUOKA Tenjin on April 20th, 2026.

This establishment will be the first in Fukuoka to fully offer a new style of hotel experience where the restaurant is the "center of the experience" – a "Restaurant You Can Stay At." We will offer menus that allow guests to feel the city's atmosphere through food, including Kyushu's first tap cocktails and "Farm to Pizza" using dairy products from "UBUYAMA PLACE" in Yamamura, Kumamoto Prefecture.

■ A New Hotel Experience: "A Restaurant You Can Stay At"

In conventional hotels, "staying" and "dining" are typically designed as separate experiences.
At MORETHAN, we propose a new way of spending time by making the restaurant the "center of the experience," not just an ancillary facility, allowing dining time and stay time to naturally connect.
We aim for an experience where dining and staying flow as one, as if the conversations and energy generated in the restaurant continue into the guest rooms.

Furthermore, the staff who welcome guests at the restaurant also handle front desk duties.
By interacting with guests at the same level of closeness as when serving food, we achieve a high-quality yet relaxed and friendly service.
The warmth and communication generated in the "culinary setting" extend throughout the entire stay, creating an integrated hotel experience that connects check-in, dining, and time in the guest rooms, encompassing the movement of people.

This model was realized through the integrated planning, design, and operation by ONE FIVE HOTELS and MOTHERS.

■ "An All-Day Dining Experience for Sophisticated Adults, Blending into the Daimyo Neighborhood"

Fukuoka is a "dense city" where tourists, business travelers, and locals naturally intersect.
Its appeal lies in its high walkability connecting Tenjin, Daimyo, and Imaizumi, as well as its rich food culture, including seafood from the Genkai Sea and Kyushu vegetables. MOTHERS has a history of creating "real places that can only exist in that location" by understanding the city's atmosphere and flow of people. In Fukuoka, we are delivering a new form of MORETHAN as a place to deeply experience "Food x Experience."

For breakfast, we offer a buffet of salads and appetizers using seasonal local vegetables, along with a choice of main dishes and focaccia baked in a wood-fired oven. We create a high-quality breakfast experience, enveloped in rising aromas and soft morning light, where the lingering feelings of your stay gently unfold.

For dinner, we offer a diverse menu including appetizers and pasta using seasonal ingredients from all over Kyushu, and pizzas baked in a wood-fired oven.
Enjoy an adult dining experience that captures the city's energy, complemented by the live atmosphere of the open kitchen.

■ The Food Story Delivered by "Farm to Pizza"

Our "Farm to Pizza," using cheese and yogurt from "UBUYAMA PLACE" in Yamamura, Kumamoto Prefecture, aims to deliver a dish where you can feel the very breath of the land where the ingredients were grown. The dairy products, nurtured by clear air and rich nature, give the pizza a new dimension, bringing diners a sense of "a small journey."

We offer an experience of tasting the land, where the producer's passion and the nature of Sansan connect within a single pizza.

■ Message from the Representative

Fukuoka has a strong city energy and beautiful flow of people. Our theme is how to express this city's atmosphere as an "experience." We want to create a place like "urban whitespace" where people with different backgrounds – locals, travelers, creators, business people – can naturally intersect.
