The welding part (4) is formed outside the cylindrical body (3) and is welded to an opening of the package. The capped spout of the present invention further has a thin film part (11) that is formed inside the cylindrical body (2) in order to close an opening of an inlet end of the discharge passage. Thin film part (11) has a first surface that faces an interior of the cylindrical body, the interior being closed by the cap (30) and the thin film part (11). A circular groove (12) that is concentric with the thin film part is formed on the first surface. The circular groove (12) is formed of an arc-shaped first groove (12a) and an arc-shaped second groove (12b) that is longer than the first groove (12a).
