Provided is a refrigerator including: a storage chamber having an infrared sensor which detects a surface temperature of food; and an adjacent storage chamber starting from the infrared sensor as a start point and adjacent to a projection plane of the detection plane of the infrared sensor. The storage chamber and the adjacent storage chamber are maintained in the same temperature band so as to improve the accuracy of a temperature detected upon door open and close. Moreover, by suppressing condensation and temperature fluctuations of a thermistor itself which may cause an erroneous detection, it is possible to stably detect the food temperature.
