A honeycomb filter includes a ceramic block which includes a plurality of honeycomb fired bodies, an adhesive layer, and irregularities on a peripheral face of the ceramic block. Each honeycomb fired body has a longitudinal direction and cell walls extending along the longitudinal direction to define cells each sealed at either one of both ends of each of the cells. The honeycomb fired bodies include at least one of silicon carbide and silicon-containing silicon carbide. The adhesive layer is provided between the honeycomb fired bodies to connect the honeycomb fired bodies. The irregularities on the peripheral face include a projected portion formed by apart of the cell walls. A sealing material layer is provided on the peripheral face of the ceramic block in accordance with the irregularities on the peripheral face so that an outer peripheral surface of the honeycomb filter has surface irregularities thereon.
