A longitudinally coupled resonator type surface acoustic wave filter includes a piezoelectric substrate and first, second and third IDTs provided on the piezoelectric substrate and arranged in a surface wave propagating direction such that the second IDT is interposed between the first and the third IDTs. Each of the first, second and third IDTs has a plurality of electrode fingers. The first and second IDTs have narrow electrode-finger pitch sections that have an electrode-finger pitch narrower than the remaining electrode-finger pitches, at respective end portions of the first and second IDTs adjacent to each other. The second and third IDTs have narrow electrode-finger pitch sections that have an electrode-finger pitch narrower than the remaining electrode-finger pitches, at respective end portions of the second and third IDTs adjacent to each other. The electrode-finger pitch of the narrow electrode-finger pitch sections in the first and second IDTs is different from the electrode-finger pitch of the narrow electrode-finger pitch sections in the second and third IDTs.
