Veg-friendly
Serves meat, vegan options available. Take away counter in the Midori department store (the sub-store called Oraho, 2F), part of the shopping malls in Nagano central train station. Sells oyaki, Nagano's specialty dumplings made of buckwheat and filled with many types of vegetables. Many are vegan suitable.

delicious and convenient - Edit
Great spot to grab a delicious local delicacy. The English chart with ingredients was very helpful to work out which ones were vegan friendly! We tried the pumpkin, the red bean, the greens and the eggplant ones. Sooo yum!
Pros: cheap, convenient , local delicacy

Oyaki-a Nagano specialty - Edit
We traveled to Nagano and were fortunate to find this small outlet in the Midori/Oraho department store, right at the Nagano train station. Oyaki are buckwheat dumplings filled mostly with vegetables, and most of them are vegan. One can find them in many places, but Irohado's dumplings are very tasty and the friendly counter ladies understood "vegan", also had a small information sheet in English with info about oyaki, names of dumplings (based on their fillings, such as mixed vegetables, daikon, pumpkin, azuki bean, thistle, mushroom, nozawana greens, scallions), calorie content and photos of the dumplings. Very conveniently situated and saved our vegan diet in Nagano (since some restaurants we found on the internet had closed...).
Pros: inexpensive, yummy, easy access from Nagano train station
Cons: not a sit-down restaurant
