Provided is a light emitting device in which deterioration of the substrate member can be reduced. The light emitting device includes a base member mainly made of a resin, a plurality of wiring portions and arranged on the base member via an adhesive agent, a groove portion defined between adjacent wiring portions, and at least one light emitting element which is disposed straddling at least a part of the groove portion. The adhesive agent is applied covering the base member from the groove portion, and contains a light-shielding member. The light-shielding member shields the base member from light, for example at a specific wavelength, emitted from the at least one light emitting element.
