Why go
A cash-only, no-reservations udon shop in a converted house near Kukodori station, recognized three times by Tabelog Udon 100 (2020, 2022, 2024). Hand-cut noodles run under 1,000 JPY per bowl, but the kitchen often sells out before the posted 1:50 PM close. Book Saturday mornings (6:00–9:00 AM) for the shortest wait; weekday late mornings are second-best.

Restaurant context
At under 1,000 JPY per bowl, Udon no Den sits in the same price band as Nakanishi Udon, Oshima Udon, Marutani Seimen, all cash-only, no-reservations operations that close when noodles run out. The distinction here is the Saturday 6:00 AM slot, which gives you first crack at the day's hand-cut dough. Matsubara and Teuchi Udon Ueda charge similar prices but offer slightly longer hours and more consistent availability, if you want a guaranteed bowl without the early-morning scramble, those are safer bets.
The Tabelog 100 recognition (three consecutive cycles) puts this shop in the upper tier of Kagawa's regional specialists, but the format is bare-bones: counter seating, minimal English, no phone bookings. If you value texture and simplicity over polish, Udon no Den delivers. If you want a more tourist-friendly experience with clearer signage and flexible payment, Matsubara is the better pick.
