The 50 best bakeries in Bunkyo

We queued for about 50 minutes, so naturally, I was expecting the food to be mind-blowingly good—something truly worth the wait. Unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to the hype. The overall experience felt a bit average, like something you could easily get at other Western-style cafés. Their signature dishes were decent, but nothing particularly amazing or memorable. The chicken karaage, however, was a standout—crispy, juicy, and flavorful—definitely something the Japanese do exceptionally well. The cacao drink was a bit too sour for my taste, and the dark rum coffee had only a very mild coffee flavor, which was underwhelming. The pudding is also average, and the brown sugar tastes a bit bitter... In summary, it’s a nice café, but only if there’s little to no queue. Otherwise, it feels like a bit of a letdown and not really worth such a long wait.

This place is a bit confusing. It's hard to order pastries and then sit down and eat them. The ordering counter for meals (burgers, sandwiches) is at a different place than the ordering counter for pastries, but we wanted to eat pastries in the restaurant. It feels like decisions need to be made very quickly and there's little explanation of how that should happen properly. It's almost just 2 shops in the same building, where the pastry counter has no menu and you just have to take pictures of what's available if you need time to think. I think we waited about a half hour to order (which was reasonable). The pastries were pretty good/okay. I don't think there's enough butter in all of Japan to actually rival French pastries, so that should not be your bar if you're going here. We tried several different pastries and the best were the financiers and the sausage dog imo. That said, the cafe latte and the brown sugar dessert option were freaking phenomenal. I would definitely go back for those, but not really anything else. The burger was juicy, but mostly drowned in ketchup and too sweet.

May 2025: Visiting from the United States and stayed at the Grand Hyatt nearby. Workers are very friendly. Found this bakery that had amazing coffee and baked goods nearby. Coffee was fabulous with wonderful tasting notes 🎶. I normally add oat milk instead of cream. The restaurant had oat milk as an upgradeable option.👍 My favorite baked goods were the bread 🍞 and the raisin roll. Also tried the avocado 🥑 toast. Stayed at the hotel for six nights and this place was my go-to for coffee and breakfast. Probably stopped by for coffee, pastries and/or bread six different times. On the last day of my vacation, I tried a "pain perdu" which was so delicious. Reminds me of a french toast... And I looked up the name and it's literally french toast 😀. Aside from the delicious bread, this is my new favorite! Will definitely come back again when I am in Tokyo again!

One of the most popular bakery shop in the area, lots of people were queuing pf a seat. For take out, no need to wait. I waited for 20mins for a seat, then ordered. This is my third time here, every menu was delicious, especially the bakery. Coffee is ok. Salad and bread are the best

Came on a Saturday morning around 11:00 am. There was already a line and the staff said it would be around a 20 minute wait for a party of 2. It ended up taking closer to 30. You order from the register and there’s separate ones for the bakery side and food. We ordered the jerk chicken bagel and the eggs Benedict toast. The toast was delicious, and the bagel was also solid. A little pricey but it’s a nice ambiance and good location if you’re around Roppongi hills. Also got a sourdough to go, which was delicious.

The service attitude is bad: the ordering flow was so strange, you have to walk against the flow to check the pastry section after taking the number in another entry. After waiting a while to get a table, I have to walk back to make the order AND the clerk asked me serval times if I have a seat to dine in. I showed her my number ticket and told her I already have one table, then she seemed not believing me and asked me to point out where exactly my seat was. I was traveling solo, how can I put my purse in the outside table and walk back inside to make the order?! Of course I have to carry my purse around, and that does not mean that I don’t have a seat, especially I already told her many times that I already have one seat! Back to the croissant: just average. Crispy but not airy. The dark rum latte is good.

Best bread I had opportunity to taste in Japan, loved it. Definitely will come back again. Great taste & atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff. Thank you very much for this experience 🙏❤️

I’m a gluten free traveler so I was very excited to see there was a gluten free bakery in Tokyo. I made a 40 min journey to it and it was so worth it. All the bread was delicious and I even got a free bun hot from the oven!! The sweet bread with the powder sugar in top was my favorite followed by the chocolate chip muffin.

Biossa in Tokyo is a true gem. Their pastries are absolutely excellent! As someone who is wheat-intolerant, I had never had the chance to enjoy bread this soft and delicious before. The pain perdu is my absolute favorite—rich, perfectly sweet, and comforting. The cinnamon brioche-like pastry is also incredibly tasty, and even their pizzas are full of flavor and perfectly baked. On top of that, the staff is very kind and welcoming. The prices are also very reasonable, which makes the whole experience even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be coming back often whenever I return to Tokyo! Thank you for your work!

If you have coeliac disease it is not always easy to find something to eat. I was very happy to find this delicious bakery. Everything was very tasty and cheap! Absolute recommendation!!🥳

Best GF bakery (there’s only two other places I can think of in Tokyo and one in Paris that are on my top list)… I tried nearly everything, all of the savory items (except for the corn tuna) and the French toast (insanely good), and every single one was perfect. I cannot believe they achieved such goodness with rice flour!

I’m from LA and not had gluten free bread this soft and delicious. The selection of bread was fantastic too. Thank you!

Saved our trip! My son is gluten free, and Japan (largely) is not. It was very hard to find food for him, and other gluten free shops either weren’t really gluten free, or just tasted bad, had very small menus, or were closed when they said they were open. But Biossa had exactly what we needed. Good, fresh, delicious gluten free bread, muffins, baguettes, and croissants! That way we could pack and carry the breads around Tokyo, so my son could eat almost anywhere (by swapping out the provided breads with these gluten free ones). Game-changing. Thanks Biossa!

Gluten free bakery with a great variety of delicious goods! The shop is quite popular, so I recommend going early in order to be able to choose among all the delicious options available.

Breads are excellent, tried both the famous red bean bun and the sesame variety. This was on a summer morning where there was a downpour outside. I wanted to grab a quick breakfast but surprisingly, was told not to eat in store after buying my breads. I was truly puzzled as the entire store was empty and I was only a handful of customers at the store. I understand if this policy should be enforced especially when the store is packed. But this policy of disallowing customers to have their buns hot when fresh, out of store is truly disappointing and one of the very rare occurrence of poor customer service that I’ve encountered in Tokyo.

Ginza Kimuraya, founded in 1869, is Japan’s oldest bakery and the birthplace of the famous anpan sweet bun. Located in central Ginza, it still uses its traditional sake yeast recipe that gives the bread a soft, fragrant flavor. The multi-floor shop includes a bakery, café, Western grill, and French bistro. Their sakura anpan—topped with a salted cherry blossom—is a must-try. It’s a perfect stop to taste over 150 years of Tokyo baking history.

Very good business. Famous for its red bean bread. Some butter Inside the bread as well. There is a big variety of breads for selection. Can come and grab some breads to go. This shop also has an afternoon tea areas on the second floor and some decent meals offered on the third floor.

TLDR: bit pricey for dine-in, red bean buns were ok but nothing special to me We got two sets at the cafe upstairs. I got the shrimp sandwich combo and she got the red bean pastry combo. Both come with coffee or tea. The shrimp sandwich was pretty decent but nothing that stood out. The red bean pastries were also just ok, the sweetness of the red bean comes out but the bun itself wasn’t that great to me

Delicious bakery which will provide the perfect breakfast if you are in the area! Very polite and kind people will help you in case you have any questions! Sweet and salty - or take both! My favourite one for the moment is the „cheese danish“! Thumbs up!

The best red bean bread jn Tokyo. The second floor is the cafe shop and the third floor is the restaurant. The sandwiches are good too. Highly recommended

Updated review: They used to sell a divine beef curry kare pan while it’s hot but now it’s bagged and you get a soggy one. Such disappointment they messed with one of my favourites. I’m lowering to 3 stars because of food sanitary conditions. Out of 10 times I’ve eaten here, I’ve gotten sick twice. Once was the lovely cream anpan bun in the hot summer, and this last one was the milk bread. I ate the milk bread on separate days apart and realised the culprit. So be careful. They sell lovely baked goods- another favourite are the anpans (baked buns with various fillings) in the front. I like the cream cheese, the chestnut, the classic anko red bean. The red bean doughnut was just ok- next time I will try something else. This store is always busy, côme and enjoy!

I have been here few years ago, and I loved this location as well. However I was so sad to see this place got so small. It used to be a whole floor, but now it has shrunken to third. Breads were awesome, but not many choices because of the limited space. They offered for breads and coffee sets which coffee was 270 yen, and not bad. However I would not coming back.

PSA: My rating of 2 stars is heavily influenced by the quality of coffee. Coffee: had to be the worst coffee I tasted in years, I think i witnessed the barista scooping pigeon dung into the portafilter and brewing into our cups. 0/5 Bakery: Really good!!! Most French branded bakery's in Tokyo are a notch lower in quality compared to the Japanese but this delivered!! Overall: So BOUL'ANGE, EggSlut, and Lucky's Lobsters are in one food hall, and with 2/3 of the focus being breakfast I was EXTREMELY flabbergasted at their attempt at coffee. If you are in line reading this please stop go down to by NeWoman and buy your self an amazing coffee from Verve and then return for your breakfast eats.

I came to this bakery some 10 years back and was truly delighted to see it’s still around, although much smaller the quality of the baked goods still remain the same, while all the items are great the croissants are a must try. Crunchy on the outside yet fluffy inside, coupled with a coffee from punkto coffee (7 mins away) it’s a great way to start your day

Their chocolate pastries are the best I had. The croissants are really good and you can tell that they really mastered the art of patisserie with how fresh and delicious the pastries are. Will definitely go back and taste more of the baked goods. If you’re planning to go specifically at this branch, mind that you will have to bear the long line(s) of local and foreign people. The inside seats easily get crowded, so you’d definitely have to eat your pastry at the outside table(s), or take home.

Pastries were superb, flaky crisps with buttery insides. Value for money as well, quality pastries for very affordable prices between 300-500 yen. There are outdoor seats but it gets pretty warm in the morning on a sunny day, indoor seats are available too but it smells greasy.

Great location in Shinjuku, in the same building as Eggslut and Luke’s lobster. Not much foot traffic for the bakery as compared to the neighbors. Plenty of choices for the pastry, which looks absolutely delicious. I opted for a few of their ‘top’ choices. Would recommend the pistachio connet in particular and you can skip the milk bun. Coffee was great so probably can skip that too. You can dine in in the same shared space as the other shops.

Love the croissant here, it's one of the best in Tokyo and at a reasonable price. The pastry was layered and crispy, and satisfyingly buttery on the inside. There are many varieties of croissant including a couple of chocolate versions which all tasted great. Service is reasonable and there are seating but it's mainly for the shop next door. That being said plenty of areas close by to take a seat in the fresh air.

I stumbled upon this bagel shop after strolling around the area. Staff was very welcoming. At noon there were few customers, no line. I ordered freshly baked cinnamon and raisin bagel with raisin walnut soy cream cheese and jamon Serrano ham. They accept cash and cards. I waited for my order around 5 minutes. The place is quite small, only 5 seats available indoor. And few more seats outdoor. The bagel was huge and I almost couldn’t finish them. Everything perfectly goes together. The bagel was crisp and chewy (but not for long if you don’t finish them quick enough. I would recommend to stop by this place.

Welcoming staff and delicious bagels! Thankful it opens early compared to most food spots. I had the garlic bagel with salmon and enjoyed every bite.

ı am in search for a NY style 🥯 and found this shop that offers their own unique twist — literally. They’re hand-twisted into beautiful shapes, giving them a distinctive look and texture. One of the highlights for me was the germinated brown rice bagel. It’s not something you come across often, and it was surprisingly tasty — definitely more flavorful than the whole wheat option. I also tried a small plain bagel to get a sense of the base flavor, and it held up really well. I also picked up a sesame bagel— I enjoyed it with watermelon and cheese, one of my favorite summer combos, especially with sesame bagels. Their sesame bagel was gooood 🤩. The sandwiches you see in the photos are actually my own variaton, but the bagels themselves are from here — and they turned out great. If you’re open to trying a creative, local twist on the traditional bagel, this place is worth checking out!

Such a cute bagel place hidden away! The bagels were super soft and flavoursome, and the workers were super warm and friendly. I got the everything bagel with saba salad, and a blueberry bagel with cream cheese. Both 10/10. I love that the everything bagel has chunks of rock salt baked into it 🥯

Love their bagels 🥯 BiG and warm 🤤 Came here at 11:30 and 3 out 4 bagels were still warm 😙 Surprised how BIG they are Only wish they had strawberry cream cheese !! Came here before around 1-2pm and they sold out so be careful

I’ve been a huge fan of MARUICHI BAGEL ever since they opened in Yoyogi Uehara. Their bagels always remind me of authentic NYC style bagels and the way they make their sandwiches. I’m always impressed by the quality! The staff are friendly and polite, though it might take a little time to choose your bagel they have so many great options. Highly recommended!

Tasty and beautiful handmade bagels (you can find vegan and vegetarian solutions too). Staff is super kind and friendly. Absolutely recommended!

I am French and I can tell it is Delicious - Breads are excellent they are crispy like in France and a bit burnt. They have many various breads. If is very good. We have too many brioche in France but japanese people dont like breads with sugar. Like melon cake for lunch. I think it is a very good selection . It is good that bread set. - I would like to suggestion some ideas. There are many vegetables pie in france like Onion, zukkini with feta parmesan cheese, Salmon with spinach, tuna with tomato cheddar cheese, I think japanese people would like french cakes like far breton prune, clafoutis with cherry, flan coco, baba raspberry - I know french bakers work in your bakery- Marc is a expert to bake bread ..🥖 It is always crowded maybe we can add some tables outside or build more space in the future 🤞. You are doing well Congrats

If you want incredibly delicious bread+ food then this bakery is for you ‼️✨👌 For interest, my favorites are the sesame bread and the pepper macadamia bread... unreal ‼️❤️

Guys, there's sour bread (sourdough)!!! I rate it level SR. Chuck the remains in the cupboard for four days and the texture is still right. おすすめ　野菜パニーニ Be there early or wait forever in line. Despite the Japanese menu, the staff there had a surprisingly well command of English 🤗

We were looking for a nice place to have lunch and this beautiful little bakery came out. I ordered a croque madam and the bread was outstanding! My boyfriend had a ham panino and he said the same about the bread. I had an iced tea and it was very nice and refreshing. The ambience was relaxing and the decor was rustic. It felt very intimate and cozy. Definitely recommend it if you're in the area!

If you’re looking for real bread, this place is a gem! The atmosphere is great! Service was excellent. Be ready to queue because they can get busy. :-)

Really nice place. Great bread, impeccable vibes. Very popular - as soon as a table was empty, it was filled! When we arrived there weren't tables but they gave us a standing table, menus and water.

Great little sandwich place. The bread, as mentioned many times, is fantastic. The coffee was good as well. The staff was super friendly and just pleasant to be around. I highly recommend this place.

I was looking at a “best bakeries of Tokyo” list and this place came up, so went to try it out. It’s truly outstanding from the small sample I had and I’m certainly going back to try new things. I went with the cashew and cherry bread which was served warm and they slice it for you, asking how big of a piece you want (they charge by the gram). It was soooooo good. And then I got the cheese bread which I ate later and it was probably the best one I’ve had. The service was great and they even have a little cafe attached where you can sit and enjoy a beverage with your bread. Highly recommend.

I was totally disappointed after trying their breads and croissant. And it’s extremely expensive. Mind you, I bake my own sourdough at home but the breads and croissants here were simply hard and dry. We threw them away in the end. There are tons of great bakeries in Tokyo, and I would definitely not recommend this to you folks here. The shop closes on Mon & Tue, and the cafe starts at 11am.

Loooove their bread. But cash only. They accept only HachiPay which has a limited coverage compared to PayPay or others.

Not very cheap but very tasty and good quality baked products. Place you want to come back. It is good that they have an option of a half size french toast because even half portion is rather bib. But if you are still hungry, you can try other bread goods too.

Very cute little Boulangerie. Felt very homey, like you were visiting a friend’s place to pick up some baked goods. I tried the vegan banana bread and it was fantastic. Staff were very friendly too. Cash only.

Love their sourdough. Unfortunately once I had a bit rude service, but other times it felt like a community store and staff was so happy when two customers connected and shared contacts. Cash only here! I look forward to trying their restaurant next door.

Some of the best sourdough I’ve ever had. Fresh out of the oven and absolutely fantastic flavor. Everything else was delicious as well but the sourdough is the star.

Overall, it's just satisfactory, but it's not worth the long wait in my opinion, especially if you're not nearby. Traveling specifically for this shop might not be that worth it. The quality of the bread can be inconsistent, depending on which type you choose. I visited twice and bought 6 pieces in total. 1 of them (ie the jalapeno one) is very good , another 3 are just okay. 3 of them are quite disappointing in my opinion including the cake, the mentaiko (めんたいこ) one and the pistachio one.

Incredible bakery. The smell brings you right in! Everything tasted fresh and handmade with care. The croissants and red bean bread were especially good — flaky, buttery, and worth the line. One of those small places that just nails quality.

I am from France and after 2 months of Japan, i was craving for Bread 🥖 🤣 so i checked on google map and found Beaver Bread. I did a homemade custom sandwich 🤣 was super good! I love it, almost cried.. Anyway, good bread! Thank you!

I regret only one thing - that we found this place that late and that we cannot repeat the visit. The place is very cute and offers a great variety of snacks. We selected 5 different ones and all of them were just perfect. I strongly recommend!!!!

Loved the spicy nut scone. The heat left a great taste. A bit on the drier side, best warmed up to moisten it I think. The sourdough and white bread were good, white bread especially - dense and with a firm bite, great for sandwiches. Deifnitely want to toast both. Cornbread is savory, would be perfect with more butter or some sweet spread. Cornbread and the not overly sweet scone seem worth going out of the way for. Also a bunch of other good looking things here even at 4pm. Also really nice looking pricy jams, I'll have to try in the future!

March, 2023 If you're in the mood for delicious bread, Beaver Bread in Higashi Nihonbashi is a great option. The bakery is small, cozy, and has a friendly atmosphere that will make you feel right at home. The bakery offers an impressive variety of bread, ranging from classic red bean buns to unique and inventive large campagnes. There's also a rotating menu of seasonal bread that adds something new for returning customers. March, 2023 The quality of the bread is exceptional, with each loaf and bun baked to perfection using high-quality ingredients and traditional techniques. You can taste the dedication and care put into each product, which has made Beaver Bread a beloved neighborhood bakery.

Very small corner store bakery offering variety of sweet and savory pastries and bread. There’s almost always a queue but it moves quickly. You can choose to eat the bread at the nearby cafe, but you must order a drink.

I came here because they sell sourdough bread and I’ve been on a mission to find the best in Tokyo. They have several sourdough options which was a nice touch, with a whole host of other breads to choose from. I got the baguette sliced plus just a regular sourdough bread slice, which was a bit unique and worth trying. Both were delicious and I’d go back for not only those but for the other varieties as well. Staff were great and service fast.

My first time buying sour bread in Tokyo. I came all the way from Adachi because of the good reviews. I haven't eaten them yet, and i plan to freeze some. However i had the blueberry cream cheese for dine in. It was really fulfilling and one is enough for me. The older male staff was really kind. Really good atmosphere and service. Only cashless!

Definitely one of the best bakeries in the area, and with amazing service. The choice is not as large as larger bakeries- which to me is a good thing. They specialize in rye breads and sourdough and they excel at it. The hot sandwiches using their ciabatta is excellent. The blueberry cream cheese was my favorite.

As a Google reviewer I count on Google review to identify new restaurants and places to visit especially while travelling. This bakery has a 4.8 Google review that’s very reassuring. As it is not close to subway station, I took a 40-min walk from my hotel. This bakery is truly a hidden gem. Decoration of the bakery is very pretty and offers a very comforting ambiance. Great music. All bakery are pre-packed for easy selection with name tags to indicate the ingredients. Some variety of the bread offer half or even quarter size! They are very soft and fresh. The store has some seatings to allow eat in. Staff are very friendly and patient to allow me to take photos. I bought a few items and they offer me three big slices of sour dough bread for free! They definitely live up to the 5 stars rating! Highly recommend.

This place deserves 5 stars. It’s really clean inside. You feel so welcomed. The morning staff especially is always helpful and pleasant. They play nice music. I usually arrive 7:55 am and I know they open at 8:00 am but she would let me in. I come here before going to work. Their bread is really delicious and I think it’s now my favorite bread shop in Tokyo. I’m sure that I’ll continue supporting them. Thank you for the delicious bread.

Best sourdough I’ve ever tasted. Big fan of the ham and cheese sandwich and my daughter and I give the corn soup a 10 / 10! Very friendly owner and staff and great vibes in the store with relaxing music playing gently.

Best bread in Japan! The owner was so lovely and heated up my quick snack for me (Spinach and Bacon Twist. Was DIVINE and very fresh. Also had some olive bread which was easily best sourdough in Japan. Took a photo halfway through it 🤣

A very nice storefront on a quiet street was a perfect place for mid-afternoon snack. Friendly staff made great recommendations. Most importantly, the bread was fantastic!

Okay, this place is the real deal. Went there about 3 pm on a Sunday in June. It is a window ordering place with maybe two small tables and chairs if you want to eat there. The prices are on the higher end. Around 350 yen for each baked good. I guess the price does not deter the loyal customers. While this may not rise to the level of ambrosia, it is definitely top-tier. It is near a university and may also attract college students. Anyhow, worth a visit as you can't go wrong.

Truly delicious bites! Discovered this place when walking along the Kanda River and searching for a snack. Bacon roll, bacon epi bread, and cream cheese raisin mini pain de campagne. All were excellent, I wished I'd bought more for tomorrow's breakfast. For good, fresh, handmade breads the price is really good as well, about 250 yen per piece. Good luck finding that around Shibuya or Shinjuku.

Delicious sweet and savory Japanese bread pastries. A lot of different options and all were yummy!

Nice hidden bakery in the quiet neighborhood of takadanobaba, breads and buns are more English / German inspired, making this bakery a bit more original

Very delicious bread, sausage rolls and chocolate buns. I wish I could buy bread here every day!

Great bakery with interesting twists on items. I recommend the 豆乳フランズ if you're like something soft.

We tried the pistachio cornet and chocolate cornet. Definitely try the pistachio cornet cause it was amazing. I still think about that pistachio cornet. Just melt in your mouth and has a crunchy exterior that is not overly sweet. If I could come back, I would come slightly hungry and try more desserts from this place.

The almond kouign amann was so good, like a hybrid cookie. Would highly recommend this place. It’s in the food show area, among other baked goods. There weren’t that many options when I went around 5-6pm.

After a big sushi set meal, I was craving something sweet and crunchy, so we swung by this small bakery to check out the selections. The milk cornet, their #2 seller, was extraordinary, with a divine crunch to the pastry where you can feel every layer as you bite down. The light and sweet filling was quite firm, so it held its own against the formidable exterior. The raspberry croffle was similarly excellent, with a chewy pastry texture and a sparkling, juicy filling - it looked like a culinary treasure and tasted like one as well. Special mention to the service, as the shop attendants were very kind and joyous, making the food even easier to love.

This bakery does an exceptional pastry called the Pistachio Cornet. It's a horn shaped buttery and flaky puff pastry chock full of luscious pistachio cream. The magnificent crunch and creamy pistachio filling made for quite a delightful experience. Highly recommend texture junkies with a sweet tooth to give it a shot.

Perfect for your morning pastries and coffee, reasonably priced. There is some nice seating inside, select your pastries and order your coffee, sit and enjoy. Location-wise this is situated opposite Shibuya crossing and Shibuya JR station - super convenient. There is a wide selection of pastries, breads & cakes available - my family ate here approx 4-5 times when travelling in Japan, I stayed at the hotel above the ‘food-show’. We preferred eating here instead of the hotel breakfast ( mainly because I feel they are over-priced and the kids don’t eat huge breakfast’s). We also found it cheaper. For a family of 4 (2 adults / 2 kids) we would spend approx 3200 yen (approx $33) for a selection of 7-8 pastries to share, 2 mango juices for the kids and 2 coffees for the adults - I reckon that’s pretty good value when compared to 7000 yen for the hotel breakfast)

Visit this place 3 times. Very friendly staff and great experience. Fantastic pastry. I am very impress when the staff bring out freshly baked pastry. He remove the old ones and put the fresh one. He took the old pastry to the back kitchen to throw. That is pretty impressive. What typical bakery do is they will put the old pastry in front and fresh pastry at the rear. So as to sell the old pastry first. Really a must visit when you go shibuya.

Located in Tokyo Food Show( You can reach by Hachiko Gate) There are lots of good bakeries. It is good option to have quick breakfast there. After buying You can sit in food show. There are seats and tables to eat there but not many.

Creamy, Crispy, Cash only! Do note that they only accept cash. Jokes aside I really like the warm bun served with the cold fillings, I quite liked the vanilla cream one instead of the ice cream fillings as they tend to melt quite fast and it gets messy to eat. They have a strict policy of only eating within a designated area so do note!

just walking NEAR this stall front is heaven for melon pan/pineapple bun lovers — the sweet, signature, sugary aroma of the bread entices everyone walking by. compared to pineapple buns, i found that the melon pan was much softer and floppier/limper(?) than a pineapple bun. as well as that, the top was crispier/crunchier than a typical pineapple bun’s, which is usually very crumbly. i loved how the matcha ice cream wasn’t too sweet at all, with its perfectly bitter notes of green tea complementing the sugary top of the melon pan. the soft serve was also extremely creamy, and the coolness of the ice cream contrasted well with the warm, fresh, fluffiness of the bun. although it didn’t completely blow me away, and i think i still prefer pineapple buns, this was extremely satisfying and filling. also don’t be intimidated by the line, it moves EXTREMELY quick, since a lot of people are just getting the melon pans and not the ice cream (although you might have to wait a bit if you want ice cream, since they do it one by one and it’s quite slow).

Tried the matcha flavored melon bread. There was a short queue but it moved very fast so there was no wait. The bread was fresh warm out of the oven and super crispy. It was a nice contrast to the colder matcha ice cream. A bit pricey but the bread was quite big and I miss eating this.

Fantastic bread shop. Melon bread was large and had plenty of different filling options to choose from. We chose the Matcha and Whipped cream filling options. Also grabbed some for the trip home and just to snack on random days of our trip. 300y for a plain bread, and something like 600-800y for other filling options. Popular place and wait times were short despite having a long wait line.

We ordered one normal Melon bread and one with matcha ice cream. Both tasted really good, especially the one with ice cream, because the bread itself is quite dry inside, so the ice cream makes it taste more moist plus you will have some of the matcha flavour as well. Definitely one of the better ones I had in Japan if you also have a sweet tooth like me 😜🍦

This is a must try and highly recommended if you are going to do a food crawl along Asakusa area or just looking for a light snack. The bread has a crunchy outer layer with the right amount of sweetness. Then the inside is light and airy which is contrast to its exterior. You can have it as is or with soft serve icecream in its center. There will be another queue if you opt for the latter.

Little line however well worth the wait! The best melon pan I have eaten. It was warm and crispy, paired well with the matcha icecream.

Absolutely LOVED the food- especially the fried chicken! I went with two non-celiac individuals and they couldn’t tell the difference between the gluten free foods and the gluten foods they’ve been eating throughout Japan! I am a newly diagnosed celiac and still learning how to manage but I had absolutely NO reactions and loved my experience- also there were other celiac individuals there who were so nice to talk to. Highly recommend!

First, you should know this place is quaint. There are 11-13 bar seats and 4 tables; 2 that seat 4, and 2 that seat 2. I say this first because it can get loud, depending on your table mates. We sat next to a table of 2 very loud talkers and it negatively affected our overall experience. This has nothing to do with the food or service, which were both amazing. If you don't enjoy small or loud spaces, consider ordering your meal to go. A cold, gluten-free beer after walking around the city in the August heat was so refreshing. The service was fantastic. Our waitress was very attentive and accommodating. The food was amazing. I haven't had tempura vegetables or dumplings since I went gluten free 7 years ago and it was seriously worth the wait. The fried chicken was to die for. I also ordered a bowl of chicken ramen. It wasn't the best I've ever had, but still yummy. This is a must-stop for anyone who is gluten free!

So thankful to have this place. As someone with celiac disease I was terrified about eating in Japan. We have eaten here for every meal and our kids who don’t have to eat gluten free have loved it as well. Great chicken, spring rolls, dumplings, and more! Thanks for paving the way to have more safe places to eat in Asia. Much appreciated!

On 2nd floor look up!! All gluten free yummy food. It’s a tiny place make sure you have the spice muffin it’s quite tasty and nice seasonal treat. The dumplings are good spring rolls are a bit greasy

All the dishes are gluten free. Chicken dumplings are a must try dish. It's really tasty. Staff are very friendly, and good vibe.

In a town where you struggle in negotiating gluten free food this is heaven! Dumplings gyoza buns fries and noodles. Plenty of meat choices but vegetarian is also available!!The pancakes are a treat! Fluffy and yum!

A true gem for gluten free food in Japan! This was my favourite gluten free restaurant of our whole trip. I got to try food I had been wanting to try but hadn’t been able to. I was in heaven! As a coeliac this place made me happy. And the food is great! And there’s a wide variety. Could not recommend more. It’s better to book in advance if you can! Enjoy

They have to learn what a Croque Monsieur is when they put it on the menu with no pictures. To charge 2000¥ for this is a joke. The service is getting worse. The sizes smaller. I would not advise it anymore as it is overpriced and kins of a joke a food.

Hugely Disappointed! Le Pain serving stale, day old croissants - at full price. Never before @ Le Pain worldwide experience this. This is Tokyo … where fresh, expected! Very friendly service but shocked by a tasteless, stale croissant. Unacceptable . Please, be honest with customer: Day Old _ 1/2 Price” Or don’t sell.

The best bread in Tokyo. They also have very authentic pain au chocolat. I had a tartine with chicken, mushrooms and Gruyere. The hot chocolate was also good, thick and dark, but the quantity was deplorable - it comes with a cup of milk into which you re supposed to pour the chocolate, but there is at least 6 times as much milk then the chocolate.

Amazing restaurant. The atmosphere feels like a home in the countryside of France. The food is healthy and great portions for the price. It is a bit pricey but honestly it's well worth it. Surprisingly the best bread I've had and it's in Japan haha. :)

Spacious, Cozy and lovely food:) early morning is the best time to relax ☺️ you can see the Tokyo tower from this cafe! No wifi, no charge your phone

Very nice, relaxing place for breakfast. We had a pain au chocolat, a ham and cheese croissant, an iced mocha and a raspberry lemonade. The atmosphere was nice, and the service was friendly. We enjoyed our time here while we planned our day

We had a croissant and a berry muffin with coffee....delicious.

I’ve been here a few times since 2020 and it never misses! It went viral on tiktok one or two years ago? So sometimes there’s a queue 🥹 the toaster idea is so fun! And my family and I always takes a loaf of bread home on the last day of our trip! The cheese toast and French toast is always sold out when we come 🥹 so you should go earlier!! My personal favourite is the fruit sandwich!! The shrimp inside the shrimp sandwich is always fresh and bouncy! The milk there is great too!

Tried this place out on a weekend at noon and had no wait. There is some charm in picking out the toaster for the table. The toast set was good with the different butters and jams they provide. We ordered their seasonal fruit sando which happened to be shine muscat grapes which was quite tasty. The price is a bit high for what you get but it's definitely an experience worth trying once.

What a lovely breakfast spot! You can choose from different types of toast and even get your own toaster at the table to make it just the way you like. The bread was super fresh I had the Japanese bread, which didn’t need toasting, and it was amazing. We also tried the cheese toast, which was delicious. The different butters and jams were so good too. We loved it !

As someone who lived in Japan for nine years, I found the dine-in experience here to be below average. I speak fluent Japanese, and from the moment we walked in, I sensed that the staff lacked genuine warmth and professionalism. The fit-out was also very basic — it felt cheap and didn’t live up to the brand’s image. The shokupan and jam set were certainly enjoyable, but again, the overall setup felt underwhelming. The table was also too small to comfortably accommodate everything. The French toast was far too sweet — I couldn’t even manage a second bite. Overall, I would highly recommend purchasing the shokupan for takeaway (this can be done next door), rather than dining in.

Centre The Bakery in Ginza only sells shokupan (Japanese milk bread), and it’s kind of a big deal. They’re known for letting you toast the bread yourself at the table using your choice of toaster. I skipped the DIY and decided to buy a loaf to bring back home instead—toast at home, same vibes! But I also couldn’t resist ordering the French toast… which showed up massive and had me questioning my life choices 😅 Still, it was insanely good—soft, buttery bread that melts in your mouth, paired with cold ice cream. I didn’t finish it, but no regrets.

Their cafe was decent but the French toast is another level !!! It is probably one of the best French toast that I’ve ever had😭😭😭 We went there on a weekday in the late afternoon and there’re no line. Would def recommend this place after a long day of shopping around GINZA:)

It’s 10/10 best break fast I went to in Tokyo it’s a must I do love the details in this restaurant concept it’s clean and the staff are very friendly and polite the menu is simple 👌🏻 🥰 I would recommend this place 100% if you visit Tokyo with the toasts you never say no hope the food quality stay the same well done CENTER bakery Must try food : 1 - egg and chease toast 2 - French toast 3 - sugar and butter 4 - egg toast 5 - shrimp toast

Very good food with appropriate portions. I read a review there is a long wait for food to come, but I think ours came in around 5 minutes or even less. Staff did well too, no issues.

We waited for 1 hour to be seated on a weekday afternoon. Not quite sure what the hype is about. Service is probably the worst we’ve had in Japan so far. One of the waiters gave us the look when we were taking our time to order. Very limited options for vegetarians, and a minimum order of two appetizers is required if you’re a vegetarian. So we had to get an extra baguette for the table which we weren’t able to finish. For the dessert we got a Mont Blanc and a strawberry dessert. Find them mediocre and overpriced.

The croissant was good but Iwas a bit disappointed with their nicoise sandwich. It was basically a potato sandwich (I don’t even remember they put potatos in pan pagnat). No tuna or olive oil whatsoever. Maybe I got unlucky, but I thought it was a safe option given it’s a French bakery and the abundance of tuna here in Japan.

I came here for a friend’s birthday dinner. I reserved dinner for us and I asked if they could make desert for her but it was on that day so I couldn’t. Food was really good. They gave us explanations of menu, like where it came from and good with wine etc... when we ordered deserts (mine was parfait and hers was gâteau chocolat ), who expected?? They brought her decorated cake for her birthday!!! We’re surprised and she looked happy. The service was great, I would love to come here again!! Next time I’ll come here with my mom :)

Went there for dinner about one month ago. Located in one of the top commercial buildings at Marunouchi, it is very close to Tokyo Station. It is very convenient for a tourist, especially if you stay in this area. Layout is like a typical French bistro with its own bakery. Staff can communicate in English. Service was good. Quality of food was nice and price was reasonable. On the date of my visit, a Wednesday evening, it was full. It was well patronised by locals. I think the apple pie was an excellent choice to end the dinner. Will consider a revisit if I am in the area.

Too many people so need to wait for a long time. Maybe shop some breads to go will be a better idea, the food in the restaurant was just fine not as we expect that good but still can try their food when you have free time .

I stumbled upon a charming little spot with all the trappings of a French café, so I popped in to pick up a baguette. The ambiance was spot-on, but the staff were less reminiscent of any Parisian boulangerie I’ve ever visited, and more of a masterclass in aloof snobbery. I asked—quite simply—if they carried anything like a spelt or ancient grain loaf. This sent them scurrying to the kitchen, only to return and deliver a monologue entirely unrelated to my question, reciting their limited knowledge with the fervour of a man defending his dissertation. By the end, I was thoroughly exhausted by the performance and made a discreet exit before they embarked on the history of yeast. •••••••••••••• As for the baguette itself—surely the point of the whole excursion—it turned out to be aggressively salted. Quite unsuitable for demi-sel butter, and entirely unworkable for any sandwich containing so much as a whisper of seasoning. One might say it was a loaf with trust issues. •••••••••••••••

the shokupan with ham katsu was surprisingly good and so was toast with butter. as they make each serving by table, you'll have to wait awhile even after ordering.

Nice beard. Need to make a reservation for more options. Simple but good bread.

There are 3 types of loaf pans: 3斤, 2斤, and mountain shaped. 3斤 is the softest, 2斤 is more chewy, and mountain shaped has the crispy shell. Pelican also has those little ones in bag, which all share same texture. In terms of taste, there’s no different. So, here’s my way to toast the 3斤 loaf bread. Instead of slicing it nicely with bread knife, tear it with hand in large pieces. Then toast it for 2 minutes. Edges will be slightly cured, depend on sizes. Because of the high density, after toasting, the mix texture of chewy and crispy is just beautiful.

The best toast in the world! Must buy when you are in Tokyo.

The world Best _ Bread Healthy bread for my wellness life

Best toast ever! A must visit every trip to Tokyo. Only wished they could cut a slice for me so I can have it during my drive.

It's a great bakery shop cafe with great value for money breakfast foods. Prepare for a queue but otherwise a great spot for breakfast.

Very disappointed with this cafe. Went for lunch today after reading good review about their artisan bakeries. However the waiter served our scone (the last one left) to another customer by mistake (and it’s really weird to see a customer eating something that she didn’t order). We ordered nicoise sandwich which was very dry and the bread didn’t taste artisan at all. Ice coffee was ok. When paying the bill, the cashier tried to charge for the scone despite the fact that the waiter had wrote a note that the order was cancelled. After going to many cafes in Tokyo, I observed that neighborhood cafe seems to have bother better service and food. I think this cafe is more for tourists.

Without a doubt- the quality of the bread and pastries is very high! Most of the breads we tried were excellent; especially the sesame cheese boule and the black chilli dog which was very surprising. The service is a bit lackluster and took forever. It took almost 10 minutes for them to just heat up the breads we picked up- I don’t know why it should take so much time. Also servers looked confused and overwhelmed. But the quality is great and the vibe of the neighborhood is so fun. Price is not cheap but you might say that the quality is worth it. I think it’s a great place to pick up and eat somewhere else.

So pleasantly surprised! The breakfast set was delicious, very good bread and REAL French butter, and nice salad too. Great coffee. Friendly staff, open early. Glad I finally tried it.

The food was good, and coffee as well. However, the service is very inefficient. We arrived and wrote our names in the board, to be seated either inside or outside. There were empty tables outside and everyone else wanted to be seated inside. But since no one from the café actually checked outside for almost 30 minutes, we were waiting anyway.

Super cool and casual! The french toast was soft and flavorful. It needed no syrup but they provide honey just in case. The interior is a retro style so it’s pretty fun.

Excellent patisserie with great espresso! Well worth a visit. Outstanding croissant and good breakfast sets. Get the panini or pastry on the way out for later - you won’t regret it.

Felt the staff is racist. I wrote my name and waited in the out side seating area as the cafe was full. Somehow they allowed a Japanese lady while she was writing her name. When I asked, they said wait for the next availability while there was a table seat available. If this happened to a Japanese customer the treatment would be different. Then I left and found a better cozy restaurant just 1 min walk away named Racines Aoyama . Highly recommend that restaurant.

Charming shop with a beautifully arranged selection of bread and pastries. The display is inviting, and the variety of options makes it hard to choose. The staff was friendly, spoke English, and offered helpful recommendations, including their bestselling Croccan, the delicious apple crumble, and a soft, flavorful bread made with Hokkaido milk. The space is a little tight when it gets crowded. If you're in the area and love quality baked goods, definitely worth a visit.

Went here about noon on a Thursday in mid-June. I probably missed rush hour as it was not packed, but a few patrons were about. One of the counter people spoke English well and made it easy to order. They also provided ice packs for the cheesecake as the weather as already war. Nice selection of baked goods. A little spendy but comparable to other mid-range bakeries.

A beautiful bakery store next to Yoyogi Park, with fresh baked delicious bread and pastries. I tried many things there, chocolate bun, cheese bun, cannelle, all amazing good quality and delicious.

This bakery is excellent, with many different kinds of bread. There quality is wonderful and they are very attentive to all details, but they need to put signs in English on their products as it’s written only in Japanese and there are many foreigners in this area. Also instead of taking what you like into a tray they have you tell the staff what u want and they put it for you, which makes service very slow in my opinion…

Fantastic little bakery! Delicious pastries - I had a cheese, ham & asparagus croissant that was delicate, flaky and delicious. Their cold brew coffee is smooth and refreshing. I also like the little gift section where they sell various condiments, coffee beans etc. Staff are very friendly too. Would highly recommend a visit!

Treat yourself with some delicious bread and pastries from here! Super friendly staff as well. If only this was a proper café with seating, that would be great!

Absolutely high quality breads and pastries. Really at the level of European bakeries. Prices are a bit higher and reflect the quality of the ingredients. Really a jewel you often have to patiently wait in line for. Japanese style 😉 About 6 counter seats where you can enjoy your sweets and add coffee or tea. One of the formidable places in Yoyogikoen area. From now on Payment with SUICA card also available

A very traditional coffee shop, yet full of warmth and human touch. Truly worthy of being called the “God of Coffee” — people keep coming in and out nonstop. The coffee has a truly unique and delicious flavor, unlike anything I’ve ever had elsewhere. The staff are warm and hospitable, and the service is excellent. I make sure to visit every time I come to Tokyo. Highly recommended!

I have to admit, even though I ordered the regular coffee, it is the best coffee I had. My wife ordered the queen amber and it was also very good. I am not sure if I'll ever drink such good coffe anywhere else. If I return to Japan, I will definitely come here again.

I find the 10yr Ethiopian coffee tastes nice (but expensive - maybe due to Ginza location). Personally I do not prefer the second drink (with cream on top). It’s a bit too sweet. One thing I do not like - I ordered whole bean coffee 100g and the staff first measure it over 100g so he used hand to take out some beans. Should be small spoon instead for good hygiene.

loved it, the coffee is so good, the place is super intimate, feels nice! the barista is friendly as well. surely will visit again when I'm in Tokyo next time!

Café de l’Ambre is a one-of-a-kind coffee shop in Ginza. Everything looks like it comes from 50 years ago. The coffee is outstanding, and of course, we'll be back every time we're in Tokyo. Fans of places like that!

I had a really unpleasant experience with the staff, particularly the older lady, who was extremely aggressive. It was easily my worst experience in Japan so far. The coffee was alright but nothing special, and the matcha was awful for me. They wouldn’t make it without sugar and even laughed when I asked, which I found very rude. The apple pie was just so-so. I won’t be going back.

I was recommended to come here and try the Queen Amber. It runs a little sweet, but it’s smooth and I enjoyed the flavors. I would get it again. Double, do not mix.

A Taste of New Zealand in Tokyo at Iki Espresso On our last day in Tokyo, we made time for one final café stop—and Iki Espresso was the perfect choice. Inspired by New Zealand café culture, this spot delivered a relaxing, stylish atmosphere and a brunch menu that was both creative and satisfying. We ordered the roasted broccoli with hummus, and it was a standout dish. The portion was generous, the broccoli was perfectly charred, and the hummus was smooth and well-seasoned. Simple, healthy, and packed with flavour. The matcha hotcakes were equally impressive—fluffy, warm, and beautifully plated with just the right amount of sweetness. The coffee here also deserves a mention. Smooth, strong, and expertly brewed, it’s clear that the baristas take their craft seriously. The café has a bright, minimalist interior with plenty of natural light, making it an ideal space to unwind, especially on a slower-paced final day. Iki Espresso feels like a slice of New Zealand right in the heart of Tokyo. Whether you’re after a satisfying brunch or just a quality cup of coffee, this is a spot well worth visiting. We’re glad we squeezed it in before heading home.

Delicious food! As a kiwi I can say the food here is very authentic and potentially bit better than a lot of NZ cafe food. Coffee was great too. The fact that they have Mince on toast on the menu means someone has really done their research on kiwi cuisine 😅 It’s a bit expensive by Japanese standards but the food is worth it. (And to be honest it’s still cheaper than it would be in NZ) Highly recommend. Made my partner and I a bit homesick 🥹

We visited Iki Espresso three times and absolutely loved it! Their breakfast options, especially the eggs Benedict, are incredibly delicious and well-prepared. The matcha latte is rich and flavorful, and the black coffee is bold and smooth. You can even buy coffee beans from them to take home! The café is located in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood, which makes it a lovely place to relax. However, keep in mind that it gets very busy on weekends — it’s packed from 8:00 AM! Highly recommended if you’re in Tokyo and looking for: #TokyoCafe #BestCoffeeTokyo #IkiEspresso #EggsBenedict #MatchaLatte #BreakfastInTokyo #TokyoBrunch #SpecialtyCoffee #QuietCafeTokyo #CoffeeBeansTokyo #KotoCityCafes #HiddenGemTokyo

Ordered a drip coffee iki blend and eggs Benedict with salmon, both were nothing short of fantastic. Despite being crowded the service was good. Would definitely go again.

This is a cozy cafe with a unique and charming design. The coffee is delicious, and the French toast we had for brunch was truly exceptional. The prices are reasonable, and the staff is friendly. The warm latte was particularly enjoyable. The QR code menu was convenient. It's located in a quiet residential area, so accessibility isn't the best, but if you're looking for delicious coffee and brunch in Tokyo, it's worth a visit.

The food here is so delicious I love their chili toast, and their French toast. I came back here for second time because it was so good 😊 I will forsure be coming back when I visit Japan again

Beautiful cafe. Amazing customer service. Went above & beyond. Took our pic, gave us a full run down on the menu NZ inspired foods. Loved their version of a NZ sausage roll✨ Great coffee

Vegan oatmeal cookie was great! Also had the brownie cookie and the chocolate chips cookies that were good! Asthenic store, also selling ice cream. Not much seating available.

Staff was nice but no aircon in the store??? The cookie dough was so gross!! The one I had in New Zealand was amazing and had multiple flavours. There’s only one flavour here. But the fresh cookies was delicious.

The place is super cute and fun. Upon entry they gift you a small cookie taste tester and it is actually good. I purchased a cookie and a strawberry milkshake. The cookie was okay but I did like the milkshake. I liked how fun the place was and chilled at the place to drink my milkshake. It is definitely worth going to and enjoying something sweet after exploring. They have loads of cookies to buy that can be taken home.

Loved it, best frappe too!! Kiwis come get your fix of Cookie time classics ❤️

The shop is so friendly! They provided the ingredients list and described in detail About the ingredients and their products. Few of their menu is Muslim friendly as other contains gelatin. And they also have Vegan products and vegan cookies.🍪 None of their product contains alcohol. Attaching the ingredients list in pictures for Muslim visitors. I hope in future they mark their products as Muslim friendly so that it much easier for Muslim visitors to. Ordered their frappe and loved it . ❤️

It is located near Harajuku Station. When you enter the place, it smells amazing. I tried the cookies in salted caramel, fudge, and cranberries white chocolate, and they all tasted so good! (sadly, they didn't have all the cookie flavors when I visited). Would definitely come back to try other items on the menu, like milkshakes and cookie dough. Edit: tried their vanilla and chocolate shakes as well. They were slightly less sweet than I prefer, and I couldn't really taste the vanilla in it. However, a unique thing is they use tapioca starch straws which are edible, although a bit on the hard side and flavorless. The shakes themselves were quite filling. One recommendation is for them to offer lid covers for takeaway, as this would be very convenient.

Best cookies you will ever have!!And the staff are always so lovely! And since even the marshmallows don’t contain gelatin and their cookies are vegan you can consider it halal

For a cafe that is wildly busy and popular, this cafe really does not feel like it's in the middle of Shibuya. There's no minimum spending or waiters who want you to leave asap. I came in here after a whole day of walking and left feeling recharged. The coffee was good and the pudding was yummy. Oh and the cafe was absolutely stunning.

It’s quite out of the way, and I thought to brave the summer heat with my family to experience this place as recommended by a few places. Not the friendliest place to go to as a foreigner. Very rude customer service, even when comparing it to non Japanese standards. It’s probably better that they hung a “no foreigners/no non Japanese speakers” sign instead. The coffee isn’t great. I tried Kilimanjaro and their original blend. The chiffon cakes were normal. It’s just interesting to watch someone doing a pour over if you sat the counter. Also the staff has no qualms about hitting your arms to tell you to move away or tell you to shut up. It’s a coffee shop not a library. This isn’t a hidden gem. It’s a hidden disappointment, and should stay hidden from everyone.

One of three Kissaten style cafes I visited on my first trip to Tokyo and they had the best cheesecake! It was light yet rich and what I wish Uncle Tetsu tasted like back in the US. They sold out of chiffon cake so I hope to go back and try that one day. They do offer an English menu and I found service to be friendly to foreigners. It’s not the coziest Kissaten I visited but I still enjoyed the vibes and decor. Great place to stop by for a coffee and pastry break away from the crowds of Shibuya. Cash only.

James Freeman, the founder of blue bottle coffee described the experience here as "drinking a mink coat" - this description is apt. Coffee is expensive here, but more than just good drip coffee, you get to see the smartly dressed baristas brewing each cup - it's like a dance; you get to enjoy the coffee in exquisite porcelain cups and unique teaspoons; you get to experience kissaten in Japan. The chiffon cake is also very good - soft & fluffy yet retains a bounce. A must visit for coffee lovers; but if you are just looking for a hit of caffeine, there are alternatives that offer you a faster, more affordable option. English menu available.

Honestly love the atmosphere in this cafe. Really quaint. Food was great too though it's on the pricier side. On weekdays, the queue moves fast but on the weekends the queue can be quite long. Chiffon cake was soft and fluffy and a big piece too. The most popular flavour is maple chiffon. Open face sandwich was good too. Coffee has a pretty roasted aroma. My friend really like it. Do note this place is cash only and you're not allowed to film or take photos of the counter where the staff are working at.

Kissaten - Traditional Japanese Cafe Highly recommended Absolutely cozy and 💯 perfect for tea time. Hand whisk cream ✅Vienna coffee ✅Cinnamon Chiffon cake 🍰 (initially wanna order matcha, but sold out)

A place that doesn’t feel like it’s in the middle of shibuya. English menu available upon request. All the china is beautiful and adds to the experience. It’s a good place to come to alone and read a book at the counter. The pumpkin pudding is amazing. Maple chiffon cake was recommended by the server and it was also delicious. Even though it was light and fluffy, it’s a rather large piece so I feel like you get your moneys worth. The first time I went I didn’t see a sign about no pictures. Second time I was at the other end of the counter and saw the sign so be aware. The young woman working was kind, but the older people were neither friendly nor rude. Anytime I’m in Tokyo I’ll come back here for the coffee, dessert, and atmosphere.

Very friendly. Consistently good taste and excellent quality since over two decades, during which my wife and I used to go there to this “Factory” on a daily basis as neighbors living very close. Our special favorite then was their “Pain de campagne”. BTW, we happened to see a YouTube video clip posted just a few days ago by a YouTuber “Kikkake” and its title was “Three consecutive holidays to make a leisurely breakfast. A happy time spent with warm soup and bread. daily life, breakfast.” To our surprise, at around 6:20-23, we noticed the following subtitles“Buns from a bakery called FACTORY in Kudanshita Tokyo, which is a bit far (for me). Nonetheless, I go there to buy it, because it’s so delicious !”

One of my favourite bakeries for so many reasons. Let's start with the bread. The. Bread. I love bread, and this bread is exceptional. So incredibly soft and enjoyable to eat, I could eat it all day. The Cafe area has a comfortable and somewhat cosy vibe. A very cute interior. I also got the soup of the day and sausage in a roll. The soup was so flavoursome and I ate it with the bread that I was served upon sitting down. I got some bagels to take away, sweet and savoury. The texture was perfect, a little bit chewy and dense, but still soft. The service was fantastic and staff were friendly and inviting.

This bread shop provides nice lunch options. Today, Cuban sandwich & quiche plate were on the menu, it comes with free refill of mixed bread (campagne, bagel, baguette) which is very satisfying

Cute, industrial design, little bakery. They have a solid, carbs-heavy breakfast for 750¥. Lunch is also quite nice, with a selection of either soup+sandwich or quiche/pizza+salad. The staff is very nice as well.

Lunch plate is "okay" (very typical Japanese style). The morning set and baked goods though are excellent. Especially try the french toast. Summary: go in the morning...or takeaway breads and toast at home!

very good friendly service. They gave me iced tea while I was waiting outside as it was super hot today and I was sweating hard. best fluffy and rich taste quiche I had in Tokyo. Salad and sides were pretty healthy tasting too

Decent weekday lunch set in a cosy environment. Bread, soup, quiche and sandwich are all delicious. The only downside is latte. Too much milk, too little coffee.

No. 4 Café may look like an unassuming single level building in the bustling city of Tokyo, but it was already crowded even on a Monday morning at 9am. When I arrived, I took a queue number and noticed that there were already 6 groups ahead of me. Since I was dining alone, I selected the option to sit anywhere, including outdoors. It did not take long before a waiter guided me to an outdoor seat. Orders were placed conveniently by scanning a QR code. I ordered the French Toast Combo Set together with a cup of iced Americano. The food was served within 15 minutes and looked absolutely fantastic. The French toast came with a variety of sides, which allowed me to mix and match different ingredients to create unique flavour combinations with each bite. Overall, it was a hearty breakfast that was both delicious and beautifully presented. This is definitely a café that should not be missed if you are in Tokyo.

We got here around 8:30am and put our names on the list. It was about a 35 minute wait. When we got seated, they did have an English menu so really easy ordering process, and our server was so sweet. I ended up getting a coffee and though I do not remember the name, I remember it was delicious. For the main show I got the French toast breakfast it came with a fried egg and this whipped butter that was to die for!

The French toast is moist, and the seasoning is not overly sweet at all. Both the bread and the dipping sauce are delicious. I highly recommend the brunch here ✨

This café offered a very pleasant experience overall. I had a warm café latte, which was creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced. The portion was generous, and it had a deep, satisfying coffee flavor that made it a great start to the meal. For food, I ordered the homemade Caesar salad, which was prepared in a slightly unique style. It was not a standard Caesar salad, but it was very well executed. The lettuce was crisp and fresh, the dressing had a rich and tangy flavor, and the parmesan tied everything together beautifully. The croutons were crunchy and added a lovely texture. It was a refreshing and flavorful salad, and I would definitely recommend trying it when visiting the café. The second dish I had was a falafel plate served with flatbread, vegetables, and sauce. The falafel was slightly dry but still flavorful, and it had a nice spice mix. The grilled vegetables, especially the mushrooms and beetroot, were excellent and added great depth to the plate. The flatbread paired well with everything, and the sauce in the middle was the highlight. It was creamy, rich, and complemented the dish perfectly. The combination of all elements worked very well together, even if the falafel could have been a bit moister. The service was outstanding. The café is very well organized with a modern system. You order online using a QR code at your table, and for seating you get a waiting ticket from an iPad. The staff works quickly, efficiently, and with great coordination. Everyone seemed focused and genuinely dedicated to their work, which gave the place a very professional but friendly atmosphere. The ambiance was charming and comfortable, with a warm and relaxed feeling. The space was nicely designed and felt welcoming. Overall, this café offers great food, excellent service, and a pleasant environment.

Worth the Wait? Stepping into the bustling heart of Tokyo, we found ourselves drawn to a highly-raved bakery cafe, a spot promising artisanal delights. The aroma of freshly baked bread wafted through the air, a tantalizing invitation that, unfortunately, came with a significant caveat: a 1.5-hour wait. Yes, you read that right – ninety minutes spent anticipating our brunch (originally breakfast). Once seated, the experience took a turn for the visually spectacular. From the delicate pastries adorned with fresh berries to the meticulously arranged savory toasts, it was clear that the chefs here possess an incredible eye for detail, turning simple ingredients into Instagram-worthy masterpieces. However, when it came to the actual taste, our expectations, perhaps inflated by the long wait and the visual feast, were met with a more moderate reality. The food was, in a word, "alright." While certainly not bad, it didn't quite reach the heights of culinary excellence that the presentation suggested. The flavors were pleasant, but lacked that distinctive "wow" factor that would justify such a lengthy queue. Adding to this, I couldn't help but feel that the prices leaned towards the higher side for what was offered. While Tokyo is known for its premium dining experiences, the slight disconnect between the "alright" taste and the "beautifully presented, slightly overpriced" tag left me pondering the overall value. The Verdict: If you're someone who prioritizes aesthetics and doesn't mind a considerable wait for a picturesque meal, this bakery cafe might just be your cup of tea (or coffee!). The ambiance is charming, and the food is undeniably photogenic. However, if your primary goal is an unforgettable culinary experience that justifies both the wait and the price tag, you might find yourself, like us, leaving with a feeling of "it was good, but..."

Maybe the best French toast in Japan 🥰 Been coming years now They got super soft and fluffy French test from their brioche bread baked on site Doesn’t even need syrup! Just solo or with the butter They do have a seasonal French toast that changes monthly. Be warned ‼️ this place went viral on social media so expect a LONG wait. Especially on weekends. Waited 2-3 hours in past. Ngl this is main reason I don’t come often 🤣 Thankfully they’ve added a ticketing system No line usually before closing. Last order is at 8:30pm Place can be pretty noisy btw 10/8 update came for 🎃 pumpkin French toast. Was great but know they’ve raised prices a bit 🫠

You want to go there early. Even before the store hours, people are lining up already. Limited items on menu but what they offer is very very good! Cozy atmosphere and definitely recommended!

Literally the best croissants I've ever eaten. I also had a matcha scone, which was equally incredible. But I'm going to focus this review on the croissants. This place always has a long line. It has a great reputation and it deserves it. Yesterday, I walked by in the late afternoon, just before they closed. No line, but only a few items left. I went in and bought some stuff. I ordered a plain croissant and a chocolate one. I didn't eat the chocolate one until the next morning, and it was still the best chocolate croissant I've ever had, even a day old. Yes, I've eaten croissants in Paris. These are better. They do everything that's amazing about how they make them in France, but leveled up. The exterior was delicate and flaky; it looks like it's going to be too crispy, like a hard crunch. But it's not, it's perfect. You bite through the crisp, buttery exoskeleton into layered, doughy, chewy deliciousness. It has the buoyant and tender mouth-feel of good high-hydration sourdough, but in thin laminated sheets. The butter coats your mouth. Then, there's just enough salt to enrich all the flavors. When I write a croissant review, I expect to talk about how one thing is featured. I might write something like, "this croissant is all about showing off high quality butter fat" or "nothing distracts from the perfect layered pastry dough." In this case, I can't. Everything is exceptional and emphasized in equal measure. You taste each component of a croissant, one after the other, like that flavor-changing candy in Willy Wonka. Finally, you'll meditate on the sum of parts, living in croissant bliss. I wish I bought more. I will go back. And I'm willing to wait in line, now. It's that good.

TOLO PAN • TOKYO ———— LOCATION———— 📍 3 Chome 14-3 Higashiyama, Meguro city Transportation: 4 mins walk from Metro ———— SUMMARY———— Clean: Tidy and clean Price: Reasonable price C. Preference : 🎈 🎈 🎈 🎈 🎈 Taste: Croissant—This freshly baked croissant I had was incredibly good, perfect crispy layers outside, buttery just right. Got my 2nd one right after for my afternoon tea. Salty bread— Slight chewy but still felt moist inside with crusty outside. The range of breads selection is impressive, hope that I can try other items on my next visit. Atmosphere: Wonderful neighborhood patisserie, really love this small local bakery in Meguro district . Went there on early morning for my breakfast. Take away only, as the bakery smell so good. I can’t wait to enjoy my 1st 🥐 outside the shop. And get my 2nd one right away., there’s already a line outside the shop, need to wait for 5-8mins to get back to the shop. Merchandise also available in the shop. Staffs are nice and friendly even I do not speak Japanese. Truly, Highly recommended if you visit Tokyo in that area. . #patisserie #tokyobakery #東京パン #東京パン屋 #voyages #tokyofoodie #tokyo2025 #tokyobread #tolopantokyo #tolo #tokyopatisserie #amazingjapan #tokyosummer #東京のパン屋マップ #のパン #solotraveller #lifewelltravelled #travellifestyle #foodporn #foodphotography #foodielovehongkong #hongkongfoodie #tokyoguide #hongkongfoodie #hongkongfood #hkfoodie #hkfood #cc_storybook

I had my best croissant so far in Tokyo. It may seem a bit over-baked for some, but it was really gorgeous. It was still hot when I had it. So crispy on the outside and you can smell it was made with real butter, which isn't the case in all the bakeries here in Tokyo. You can't imagine how happy I was when I finally had a real croissant after visiting quite a few bakeries here. The price is 390en but considering its size and quality material, it was really a good deal. I wish I could try other bread but I was full after one croissant. I will definitely come back! By the way, I don't recommend the donuts. At 420en and nothing special, not quite a good deal.

This might be the biggest croissant I had ever tried. It's a mixure of crunchy and chewy texture. I got full just eat one because of its buttery flavor. Setagaya baguette is also very unique which is spreading with goose butter outside and that makes aromatic savory. I highly recommend! :))

A nice little bakery found a bit further out from the busier Shibuya area. The staff were very friendly. I tried multiple items they offered and personally thought the curry bread was some of the best I found while in Japan.

The best cinnamon roll we’ve ever had in our lives hands down. It’s actually made me sad knowing that another cinnamon roll will never come close and I’ll never get to eat it again. 10/10 will ruin your life

Really good bakery, with lots of delicious options to choose from. The staff are wonderful and sometimes gift you with a sample of a baked good when you buy something! Tolo Pan offers great service and even though it’s a small bakery, it has a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. I feel lucky to have found this place! In this picture I’ve uploaded, I used cheese on a slice of brown bread from a loaf I bought at Tolo Pan on the right hand side. On the left hand side, I have the curry pan (curry filled bread) which in my opinion, is the best curry pan I’ve ever tried! And it’s not too spicy in my opinion. You *might* be able to ask for a tester if you’re not sure about the spice level. Enjoy! @fashionmode

Unfortunately quite disappointed with our visit today. Latte was basically just milk (I only got single shot of coffee but that is usually more than sufficient). Also ordered cinnamon bun which had clearly been made many hours previous as it was stale, it did not merit having its full price tag of ¥650…. Also ordered coffee soft serve ice cream which did not really taste of anything. Staff and atmosphere had no faults in our experience. What a shame over all though.

Stylish café in the middle of Asakusa spot. Great coffee and delicious dishes, especially the waffles and the bread dishes. I went there at least three times, always great. The only downsize is that is very popular, also with tourists, and it may be challenging to find a seat.

Not sure why there is a line out the door? Very mediocre coffee. Pictured is their hot latte. No attempt at art or anything they just pour it into the cup as quickly as possible to move you through the line. It’s more the consistency of a cappuccino with too much foam for a latte. Big bubbles, no micro foam, no soul or passion in the making of this drink. Seek elsewhere for good coffee.

Great coffee in Asakusa right by Sensoji. There will most likely be a line unless you get there a little before opening time, but worth a little wait nonetheless. Can recommend the daily brew or the Americano. Both are excellent! Worth a stop.

Stopped in here for a coffee and a snack after visiting Senso ji temple. Purchased a coffee and was told that because I took it to go. I could not drink it there. Unfortunately I also had to purchase one item per person to be able to stop and down. The employee was very nice about it but still inconvenient. However, the coffee itself was actually delicious and the ambience was very nice.

Overrated spot with an extremely long line at opening. There’s very limited seating and the wait is not worth it. The food looks nice but is underwhelming in taste, and the coffee is just average. The music was so loud, i could not hear my own thoughts. And like i said we went for an early morning coffee, talk about killing the mood of a nice cup of coffee and a quick bite to eat. Not a place I would return to.

We were not impressed. There was a queue at the entrance so we thought it would be good. We waited for 20 minutes for our waffles, by which time we had finished our coffee. They forgot the sausages on mine and the amount of chocolate on my friends waffle was abysmal. The actual waffles are quite stodgy

The cake and pastries are soo damn good. I just went back to get one more but hey if you are coming here might as well splurge and don’t worry about your diet. It’s quite popular and the staff is super friendly. The place got a cute charm to it and you just want to sit there eat and drink good coffee.

Their pastries are really good—it’s one of my favorite bakeshops in Tokyo. They switch up their offerings often, which keeps things interesting, but their brownies are a constant standout. Honestly, probably the best I’ve had in Japan.

Don’t let the name fool you - they are open multiple days of the week! :) Which is a good thing, as this is a wonderful little bakery where you can see the magic happen. Really nice vibe to the place. There’s a lot of cakes on offer, of course. Japanese style. Plus coffee, tea and soft drinks. Not a lot of place to sit though, and it seems popular, so don’t expect to find a seat. When I visited there were a bunch of people waiting outside. They have a rather large staff, considering the size of the place, and none spoke English. Still managed to come away with a raspberry cake that was really good. Also got a muffin, and while tasty, it was a bit too greasy for me. Prices were decent. So, well worth a visit if you are in the neighborhood.

A bit unfortunate that there were not much baked goods today. They only have muffin available. So we had something with cherry and cream cheese. Taste good. Had Didimo Guzman (Colombia) filter coffee. Overall coffee and muffin are just ok. Somehow coffee tasted blend after eating muffin. Am not sure why though. The place don’t seem to be welcoming neither. Will not come here again. Not worth neither price nor the taste and experience.

yummy lemon cake and coffee! had their hazelnut cookie which was good too! will come back for carrot cake next time

Lemon cake was great! Good texture with just right amount of lemon taste. Pretty decent coffee that goes really well with the bakes. Very friendly staff as well.

One of the staff recommended the cream tea scones and it's honestly one of the best things I've put in my mouth this trip.

We tried 4 different types: caffe, cherry blossom, cocoa and matcha as takeaway for breakfast All 100% gluten free chiffon cakes, super soft, the lady super sweet and nice, cost not very high but available payment only cash. Thank you for preparing these goodies for us coeliacs! We are very happy to be able to taste it! 😄

Top notch gluten free cake place. The cake is melting in your mouth. The price was alright and the lady at the counter was beyond kind. We paid by card and were even able to purchase a close-to-expiration date pumpkin cake which was reduced with ¥100.

Gluten free chiffon cakes! This is a place I was planning to check out for a while, and then suddenly a dear friend of mine gifted me these two (pumpkin and coffee favours) and it really made my day. I guess even a little present can turn a stressful week into good memories. The chiffon cakes are extremely soft and they almost melt in your mouth, but the taste is pretty delicate!

As someone with celiac’s, it’s amazing when you can find a place that has such delicious treats that are gluten free! We stopped here after visiting Senso-ji temple. The shop is small and very cute. The staff was super friendly. And the cake was so soft and perfectly subtly sweet. We added the whipped cream which made this a heavenly food experience that I’ll be thinking about for a long time. Thank you!

Take away gluten free chiffon cake, the store only accepts cash payment. We had two cakes for take away, the texture was soft and did not contain a lot of sugar which was great for us

Small shop of chiffon cake. The price is 310-330 for a piece. The staff is thankfully and smile every time. So I take a piece of early gray that's was fantastic! I loved it so much. The shop is all gluten free for celiac people. Thank I Japan !!

This is the best bake shop I’ve ever been to. I went here months ago and here I am still thinking about it. I got a slice of earl grey cake, coffee cake, and pumpkin cake. They were all incredible, but the earl grey was my favorite. Counting down the days until I can come back! This place deserves so much business!!! The lady that helped us was very nice too. One of my favorite places in Tokyo!!!

An amazing Melon Pan shop, a must visit if you are in the area. We were visiting Japan for the first time and it was out first Melon Pan, we have now tried many others and nothing is as good as the Melon Pan Factory.

Definitely above the average pastries!

(Translated by Google) I've been there many times because I can eat delicious sweet potato pie for only 100 yen, but the attitude of the female staff is the worst. The male owner who was there when I went there before? The clerk? He was a very friendly person, which was nice, but he was gone every time. Is it normal to not be able to say "thank you" at the end? By the way, even if you go there at 10 o'clock, they only sell one type of melon bread. Sweet potato pie seems to be ready at 12 o'clock, so it's late and I won't come unless I'm nearby. I like sweet potato pie because it's cost-effective and tastes great. I'm hesitant to go there because the staff's attitude is terrible. (Original) 美味しいスイートポテトパイが100円という値段で食べれるので何度も行っているが女性店員の態度が最悪。以前に行った際にいた男性オーナーさん？店員さん？はすごく愛想の良い方で良かったのだが毎回いない。最後に「ありがとうございます」も言えないって普通なんですか？ ちなみに10時に行ってもメロンパン1種類しか売ってない。12時にスイートポテトパイが準備できるようで時間も遅めだし近くにいることがなければ来ない。コスパと味が良くてスイートポテトパイ好きなんですがね。店員の態度が最悪なので行くのを迷う。

(Translated by Google) I always buy it. We recommend the chocolate melon! We also recommend the croissants! The soba vending machine is also cheap at 100 yen! (Original) いつも買ってます。 おすすめはチョコメロンです！ クロワッサンもおすすめです！ そばの自販機は100円で安いのも魅力ですね！

(Translated by Google) This shop is located about 5 minutes walk from Kachidoki Station. The big melonpan sign is the landmark. You can enjoy various melon breads. (Original) 勝どき駅から徒歩5分ほどの所にあるお店。 メロンパンの大きな看板が目印。 いろいろなメロンパンを楽しめます。

(Translated by Google) Visited on Friday around 10:30. It seemed to be on sale, so I bought 2 pieces of chocolate chip melon bread for 120 yen. (I intended to buy one, but ended up buying two without realizing it.) Melon bread was sold out. It's crunchy and very delicious. (Original) 金曜日10:30頃訪問。セールのようで、チョコチップメロンパンが120円、2個買いました。（一個のつもりでしたが、気づかず2個買ってました。） メロンパンは売り切れでした。 ザクザクでとても美味しいです。

(Translated by Google) Crunchy on the outside. A popular store with delicious melon bread that is soft and chewy on the inside. There are many different types, but personally, the ``plain'' type is the most delicious. (Original) 外がカリカリサクサク。中はふんわりもっちりで美味しいメロンパンの人気店。色々種類はあるが個人的には「プレーン」タイプが一番美味しい。

This bakery has very good bread, that’s for sure. I bought their best seller - salt butter roll. It was great. Cardamom bread was mediocre- it needs a little something more to it.

- Spinach Tartine (¥398): I had to eat this cold, so it could have tasted better, but it was still very good. The cheese was melted well, and the bread was soft with a crunchy crust. - White Truffle Salt Bread (¥278): I can see why this is the number one seller. The bread was so soft and airy, and the truffle taste was magnificent. Would get again.

The main store for the famous TRUFFLE Bakery that famous with Salt Bread (塩パン). The store only offer take out services, yet it is full with variety of options.

A must-visit for anyone who loves fresh bread and pastries with a gourmet twist. The moment you walk in, you are greeted by the rich aroma of truffle, which is the star ingredient in many of their creations. Their signature truffle salt bread is incredible, soft and fluffy inside with a crisp crust and a deep, earthy flavor from the truffle oil and salt. I also tried the truffle egg sandwich, which was creamy, fragrant, and absolutely delicious. Everything is beautifully presented, and you can tell a lot of care goes into each item. It is hard to leave without wanting to try one of everything, so come hungry.

My favourite would be the Salt Bread of White Truffle because you could really taste the truffle flavour and it was nicely salted too! Truffle flavour was lacking in the Egg Sandwich with Black Truffle but it was still very enjoyable as the eggs were pretty fresh. The Bean Paste Butter Sandwich (Version 2.0) was another gem because the baguette was so crispy! Absolutely loved the combi of red bean and butter too — so good. TLDR: Please do yourself a favour and visit this bakery if you can! Must orders for me are the Salt Bread of White Truffle and Bean Paste Butter Sandwich (Version 2.0). Instagram/TikTok: @smolbelly

i bought the ichiban ninki bread, salt and bread. it was really good i should boyght more :( its crunchy and chewy in the same time. what i like the line is also not long and its fast

The ‘Salt bread of white truffle’ deserves a perfect score of 10 out of 10. The bread’s texture is remarkably soft and fluffy, and the harmonious blend of salt and truffle creates a delightful flavor. I couldn’t resist and ordered six of them, which my wife and I promptly devoured. I highly recommend trying it; you won’t be disappointed.

Staff was very friendly and spoke some English. The donuts were delicious and they had vegan options! The grilled cheese was good and came with a side of potatoes (although they called them French fries lol). The cafe gave a very rustic look and was very cute. You can get your own water and there's a bathroom available. Not wheelchair accessible.

Didn’t realised it was right beside Menchirashi😆 Almost no wait for us, lucky us, cause the next customer had to wait for dine-in spots😅 but they are really fast with the clean ups so new seats are available soon. We ordered a milk tea, very bland and a little bitter, not my usual milk tea. But I soon know why because their doughnuts are super sweet😥 Ordered the maple and bacon doughnut and a grilled cheese sandwich. There’s bacon there but, i tasted more of the maple syrup rather than anything else. It’s like the whole doughnut had been soaked in maple syrup. It’s WAY too sweet. The grilled cheese sandwich ended up to be our favourite! Will definitely grab a grilled cheese sandwich to-go the next time I’m in the area!

Came for the pumpkin pie and although the crust was not how I prefer it, the flavor was what my American heart was missing. I also wanted to try the chai…unfortunately it was too milky for me. I also tried some doughnuts and I loved the variety and more fluffy texture. It reminded me of the mom and pop doughnut shops from back home. Also had a panini sandwich…was meh. But I definitely want to go back and try more!

Little Bakery, huge flavor! Flaky, buttery croissants + a perfect cappuccino = morning made. Their croissants are insanely good. Hands down the best I’ve had in my life. A must-try spot!

I know I am not allowed, but I say it is 3.5 stars for unfriendly staffs. We went to The Little Bakery Tokyo for some afternoon desserts. It was a popular spot as expected. The inside is a bit on a small side, as it is a cafe and not a restaurant. They had lots of American stuff as decoration, as they say this cafe is American-inspired. There is a large table in the middle, with their food offerings, pies, etc. The customers have to go around the table the long way, finally getting to the ordering and cashier. Next to the ordering counter is a window case filled with doughnuts, made by Good Town Doughnuts, who is a sister company to The Little Bakery Tokyo. When you are ordering and paying for your food, they ask you if you want to eat-in or to-go. This is the only way you get a table (if available). Now, the staffs were not very polite nor super nice, which was said by some customers from the past. The seating area is small, with a handful of tables and counter seating as well. We ordered three donuts, and Oat Milk Latte to go with them. Their doughnuts looks really good, and a nice large size, as they call “American size” doughnuts. The first doughnut of choice was California Strawberry Lemonade Doughnut. Really nice flavor of strawberry and lemonade, super tasty! The second one was Van Houten Chocolate Crunch Doughnut. Now, I don’t know if this is made with actual Van Houten chocolate, or they just like using American names, like “California” strawberry lemonade… Regardless, it was chocolate-y, and I enjoyed the texture of the chocolate crunch. Last but not least, Kyoto Uji Matcha Doughnut. It had a real matcha flavor, a bit bitter, mixed with sweet white chocolate to have the perfect balance of bitterness and sweetness. We had a nice dessert time here. We enjoyed all the doughnuts. Great flavor and large size, sure to fill you up. The latte was quite good too, rich and aromatic.

In the beating heart of tweener Tokyo, lies a helping of good ol’ baked Americana. The Little Bakery has been a popular stop for out-of-town Nihonjins and overseas tourists alike. An American/English style bakery offering the Marvel vs Capcom 2 selection screen of classic baked items from every Betty Crocker’s catalogue that you never got around to baking. The best part about this being a pastiche in Japan is the price point. Sure, it’s more on the premium side for Japanese typical bakery prices — but versus the boom of these type of treats happening in the west, it’s an absolute steal. 3 doughnuts, 3 cookies, 2 slices of pie and a coffee for about $36 AUD. That’s the cost of 1.75 sandwiches in Australia right now or maybe 3ish croissants. Yep. Listen, I understand it’s not scalable. But akin to everything else in Japanese consumerist culture, everything in balance. These treats are enjoyed in spurts and are a totally affordable luxury/nostalgia as a result. Little Bakery, big feelings of joy.

We found this place by chance when we were waiting for a restaurant next door and was a really good surprise! The pastries look stunning and a lot of variety, you can pick them yourself, pay at the counter and eat seated. We went twice in different days and got the canelle, cheesecake, brownie, pan au chocolat. Everything was reeeeally good (but the brownie). 1st time we went there we didn’t interact almost with the staff so didn’t notice anything, but the 2nd day it was a bit more crowded and the staff was not really nice. Reading the comments I understand it is a common issue to the place

They specialized in Indonesian coffee. The coffee had a rich, deep aroma with earthy undertones characteristic of Indonesian beans. It delivered a clean cup with a medium body and low acidity. The warm, round black cup enhanced the experience with its comforting weight in the hand. The ice cream was a simple yet delightful pairing, creamy vanilla with a smooth texture and just the right amount of sweetness. It was served with a touch of crumble and crisp wafer for extra contrast in texture, making it a nice dessert option😍

Hidden in plain sight just a short walk from the busy Omotesando shopping streets, Kopikalyan is an Indonesian coffee chain bringing its unique flavors to Tokyo. The café has a clean, modern vibe and can get quite busy on weekends, so we recommend stopping by on a weekday if you want a calmer experience. The drinks were solid, but what really impressed us was the food. We tried their chicken sandwich, which had a wonderful curry flavor, and for the first time, we had tempeh—paired with mayonnaise, it worked surprisingly well. They also sell some original goods here if you’re looking to take something home. The staff wasn’t particularly friendly, but it wasn’t enough to dampen the overall experience. If you’re curious about trying a new coffee chain with roots outside Japan, Kopikalyan Omotesando is worth adding to your café list.

very cozy and spacious area with a mix of sofas, tables, and private room tables. the cafe is a modern indonesian cafe with coffee and food from the region. we got the tempeh fries, regular latte, and the special herbal indonesian coffee blend.

Cool, comfortable place, quick service, and great coffee. What more could you ask for? For me, it would be Indonesian coffee beans. The beans they bring have unique flavours you might not find in other specialty coffee shops. Try the Argopuro beans, with a grape-like, slightly acidic start and a long, sweet aftertaste.

It is a good place to hang out, espescially in the morning, not many people go there You can choose the place wherewver you are convinience. The place has a good vibes, which comfy when you spend your time chitchat with your partner or friends. It excellent place for that.. However, in lunch time or after 4pm, it is difficult to have a place inside, sometimes you could wait for long hour. The place also has a nice and clean bathroom with good prayer room for moslem. The food needs to be improved; the coffee is just good, there is no added value inside or something delicious, and the toast with ice cream is plain. It is something that needs to be upgraded. But the good thing is that all food is halal. I asked the maid twice, and they replied, “Of course, we are halal.” The maid also could speak english. So it is convenient to request something from the store. It is a good place in the middle of crowded Shibuya. I hope they become better day by day.q

Perfect cozy place, aesthetics 10/10. Taste 100/100 ✨️👏🏻 You can find halal in this cafe 🍁 Perfect place Apple pie and cappucino was perfect, fully recommended 😍

Atmosphere and services are great. But foods are really soso. It was an Avocado icecream sandwich. Too cold and no taste.

I had one of their seasonal croissants. It was not bad but it wasn't particularly good either. Unfortunately they do not accept reservation which also a bit inconvenient. The service was good though.

It’s a mediocre coffee and croissant station. Not to be avoided, but there are better options.

nice 🥐 and coffee in Tokyo ststion

Both coffee and bakery are just so so.

This kouign amann is good😋

Plain Crossiant is pretty good but the ham & cheese us best eaten hot

Love this

A unique bakery & coffee shop of childish sense. Dedicated to the Finnish toy-story of Moomintroll, the ambience transfers you in the fairy-house of the moomins. Happy and smiling staff. Asian and international dishes offered, coffee, pies, croissants&muffins. No wifi. No chip & pin cards accepted. No wc there but in the mall.

Supper friendly staff, yummy desserts. Was heaps of fun chilling with the moomine at the moomine Caffe I honestly felt like I was re living my childhood. I 100% recommend this place if you loved or still love the moomines.

This bakery is super cute! First, select your pastries and go up to the counter to order your drink and pay. Some sears may be reserved but you can choose anywhere else that is open. There are huge stuffed Moomin characters sitting all over and the staff moves them around during your visit so everyone has a chance to say hi. The space is decorated with Moomin things, which is to be expected, and has some memorabilia from the author.

The atmosphere takes you right into moominvalley. The staff are excellent and will make recommendations based on what’s popular at the moment. I couldn’t stop smiling with how happy the place was! Their food is amazing and have many options to serve anyone’s palate.

I looked forward to going here my entire trip and I suppose I was so excited there was no way I could be disappointed. I went for breakfast not knowing that ordering food/lunch only starts at 11 (I would’ve gone then if I knew) regardless I got an assortment of pastries and their cute latte w latte art for ¥1500. I wasn’t seated with a Moomin unfortunately and I was too nervous to ask about it but the servers were very kind and nice and even gave me a small treat while there. The gift shop has the standard Japanese Moomin merch and I bought an assortment of things in order to get the 2019 anniversary pin~ if you really enjoy Moomin I don’t think you’ll have a bad time here

I had a mild experience. The service is correct even though they seem to be afraid of foreigners. The food has a nice presentation and as you can expect, is overpriced. If you go on a weekday, the menu includes one free drink. Strongly recommend no to order fish, you may get an unpleasant surprise in it. :(

So much fun visiting this caffe. I really enjoyed this place with magical atmosphere that took me back to my childhood. Plus really good coffee and food, ofcourse everything with moomin ❤ Lovely place that I can really recommend to every moomin fan 😊

Very delicious pastries and very helpful staff. Lots of variety for the kids and playground across the road. Curry pan is a must

Enjoying the deelish curry bun that consists of a curry sauce filling and deep-fried. There are freshly made sandwiches good choice for lunch. Yummy!

Last and possibly the best meal we had in Japan. Curry bread and French toast will stick with me forever.

This bakery is found in 1886, has 120 years of history. After removal of the prohibition of Christianity, A french pastor came to Tokyo, helped an orphanage to obtain a skill. That was the biginning of this bakery I heard. The bucket isn't crisp enough though, using fresh and good ingredient. This has a cafe inside.

Nicest staff I've met so far. Food was good, mostly bread based products from what I could tell. Cozy atmosphere.

Reasonably priced and fresh. I wish they opened an hour earlier so I could make this part of my regular breakfast.

Just wow! We found this Gem on our way out of Tokyo and it was sooo good!!!

Tasty fresh bakery products here at very reasonable price. The taste is so good and staff are friendly as well.

Great for afternoon tea ^^

(Translated by Google) I have always loved Milk France~(^-^)v Royal milk tea is not good. (Original) ミルクフランスが昔から好き～(^-^)v ロイヤルミルクティーはいまいち。

(Translated by Google) I think it just happened that the clerk at the store when I went there was... When I went to the cash register, the customer service was clearly troublesome, they didn't say anything unless I told them, and the customer service was clearly different from other staff members (the drink orders received by other staff members were slightly different), etc. I was told that it would take a while and then the drink was brought to my seat, but in my case, I was not told anything about how long it would take, and my drink was served at the counter without me knowing if it was okay to wait. It was to the point where if you didn't want to serve customers, you shouldn't have come out. I'm not trying to say anything because I'm a customer, but they didn't ask me if I wanted to eat it or take it home, so when I told them I'd like to eat it, they just silently transferred it to a tray for the store. Yes, but I would like you to respond to anything. I don't know her name, so I hope the other staff members don't lie to me, but the person who served me was a woman who seemed to be elderly. It's Saturday afternoon, daytime. I don't usually talk about customer service, but it was so bad that I had to post about it. (Original) 私が行った時の店員さんがたまたまだったと思うのですが… レジに行った時の明らかに面倒くさそうな対応、こちらから言わないと何も言ってこない、他の店員さんと明らかに対応の内容が違うなど(他の方が受けたドリンクの注文は、少し時間がかかると伝えられた上で席まで持って来てもらえる様子だったのが、私のときは時間がかかるとも何も言われずわからないまま待っていてよいのかもわからないままカウンターでドリンクが出てくるまでひたすら待つなど)、接客したくないのなら出て来なければいいのに、というレベルでした。 こっちは客なんだから、とか言うつもりはまったくありませんが、食べていくか持ち帰るか聞かれなかったので、食べていきたいです、と伝えたら無言で店内用のトレーに移しかえるのは、さすがに、はい、でも何でもいいので反応していただきたかったと思います。 お名前がわからないので他の店員さんに濡れ衣が着せられなければのですが、私の接客をされたのは年配と思われる女性の方でした。 土曜日の午後、昼間の時間帯です。 普段はあまり接客について言わない方ですが、あまりに酷かったので、投稿しました。

Big variety of bread and many interesting flavors. Rice flour French toast was yummy.

Simple and tasty! Would definitely go again.

Lots of sandwich combinations and its very affordable nice owner too

(Translated by Google) All breads are reasonably priced at around 200 yen. I think none of them are too big and perfect for people with children. The main things they sell are cooked bread and cooked coppépan. The atmosphere inside the store was cute and nice ◎ (Original) パンのお値段はどれも200円台でお手頃です。どれも大きすぎずお子さんがいる方にもぴったりだと思います。 売っているのは調理パンと調理コッペパンがメインです。 店内の雰囲気が可愛くて良かったです◎

(Translated by Google) This shop sells traditional bread that is featured in various guidebooks. Rather than flashy, shiny bread, they have a lot of nostalgic bread. The atmosphere inside the shop and the rolls they sell have a simple feel that is irresistible. The branding marks on the bread are also cute. Customers kept coming in one after the other. I had some when I got home, and it was fluffy and had a delicious simple taste. My kids loved it too, so they ate it often. (Original) 様々なガイドブックに掲載されている昔ながらのパンを販売されているお店です。見栄えのするキラキラするようなパンというよりは、どこか懐かしいパンがたくさんあります。店内の雰囲気も取り扱っているコッペパンなども素朴な感じがたまりません。パンに押された焼き印がまたかわいくていいですね。次から次へとお客さんが訪れていました。 帰宅してからいただきましたが、ふわふわで素朴なお味が美味しかったです。子供たちも気に入ってよく食べていました。

(Translated by Google) The bread itself is nicely sweet, chewy and delicious. The filling is refreshing. The rusks are a bit light in flavor, as expected lol. Since it's a snack, I wish they were a little sweeter. (Original) パン自体が甘みがしっかりあり、もっちり弾力あり美味しい。 具はさっぱり系。 ラスクは味が流石に薄いw お菓子だからもう少し甘くしてほしいです。

(Translated by Google) Yes... well... that's all... The atmosphere of the store is cute and has an old-fashioned feel. In the case of the sandwich, there is too little portion, and there is too much bread... and the taste is just so-so... I don't think I'll ever visit again. (Original) 네... 뭐.... 그닥입니다... 가게 분위기는 귀엽고 옛날 느낌 나는데 샌드의 경우 너무 양이 적고, 빵 부분만 너무 많고... 맛도 그냥그래요... 재방문까진 안할듯하네요.

Bravo, the nice variety, taste good service. The place used to be “Papa Daniel”, but seems even better now.

This place is deliciously dangerous to have in my neighborhood! 😆 Everything I’ve tried so far has been incredibly tasty and delicately made.

This place is an absolute delight in the middle of central Tokyo. This Patissier Chou cream is a small sensation !

Amazing bakery and cake shop with several tables for eating in. They accept orders for their delicious selection of cakes and you can pick it up as fast as the next day!

Really delicious sweets, especially the Lemon Tart. Quite sour but so good!

Best in Tokyo😎

Very tasty!!

Good !

(Translated by Google) 1 minute walk from Yushima and Tenjinshita intersection. Maitsuru sells traditional bread. They have all the classic Showa-era breads, such as chocolate cornet, three-color bread, melon bread, cream bread, curry bread, and more. Their grape bread, which is made with plenty of raisins, is a huge hit. They use natural yeast and are particular about the ingredients. 🟩 Small Grape Bread (648 yen tax included) The sweetness of the raisins is quite mild, so it's easy to eat for me. Adding butter really enhances the flavor! They used to offer eat-in service, but now it's take-out only. (Original) 湯島、天神下交差点から徒歩1分。 昔ながらのパンを販売する舞い鶴。 チョココロネ、3色パン、メロンパン、クリームパン、カレーパンなどなど、オーソドックスな昭和バージョンのば揃っています。 中でも、レーズンをたっぷり使ったぶどうパンは、大ブレークした人気商品です。 しっかり天然酵母を使用したり、拘りもあります。 🟩ぶどうパン 小 (648円 税込) レーズンの甘みがかなり控えめなので、ぼくには食べやすい味わいです。 バターを加えると抜群に味わいが増しますね！ なお、以前は、イートイン営業もされていましたが、現在はテイクアウトのみです。

(Translated by Google) When I was walking around Yushima, I suddenly stopped by this bakery with its retro storefront that looked like a coffee shop and I was curious about it 🥐 It seems that they used to serve coffee and other items in the eat-in area, but now they only sell bread 😃 I visited the store just after it opened on a weekday, but even though there was a sign saying they were open, the door was locked and I couldn't get in 😅 I called and the owner opened the door for me I thought they only had grape bread, but when I went inside, I saw that they had a wide variety of breads, including melon bread, modern apple cream cheese, and other sweet breads, as well as burger bread! The variety is comparable to that of bakeries in town 😊 There are two types of grape bread: regular yeast-based grape bread and natural yeast-based grape bread, and I bought the natural yeast-based grape bread because I heard that the natural yeast version has a chewier dough 😁 🌟Purchases🌟 Natural yeast grape bread ¥1,296 Croissant ¥259 Bean bun ¥226 When I cut the grape bread, it was overflowing with grapes❗️There seems to be more grapes than dough😆 Maybe because it's grapes, it was softer than raisins, not sticky sweet, and felt juicy🍇The sweetness of the grapes stood out more when I rebaked it, but if you want to enjoy the texture of the grapes, it's better to eat it as is😊 The dough has a simple feel, but that makes it easy to eat and matches the grapes well😁 The croissant was an easy-to-eat bread with a slight buttery scent, and the bean paste bun had a taste that I liked with its bean paste and sake yeast😊 As for the taste, it's a matter of preference, so it wasn't particularly delicious, but I was surprised at the amount of grapes🍇 in the grape bread, so I gave it 4 stars⭐️ (Original) 散歩で湯島を散策した時、喫茶店のようなレトロな店構えにふと足を止めて気になっていたパン屋さん🥐 以前はコーヒーなどイートインもしていたようだが、現在はパンのみの販売😃 平日の開店直後に伺ったが、営業中の貼り出しあるのに、鍵がしまっており中に入れず😅 電話したら店主の方が開けてくれました ぶどうパンしか置いていないのかなと思っていたが、お店にはいると、メロンパンや今風のアップルクリームチーズなどの甘い系のパンやバーガー系のパンなどと以外にもパンの種類は豊富！街中のパン屋さんにも引けを取らないバリエーションでないでしょうか😊 ぶどうぱんは、通常のイースト菌つかったぶどうぱんと天然酵母のぶどうパンがあり、天然酵母の方が、生地もちっとしているとのことで天然酵母のぶどうぱんを購入😁 🌟購入品🌟 天然酵母ぶどうぱん¥1,296 クロワッサン　¥259 あんぱん ¥226 ぶどうパンカットしたら、中から溢れんばかりのぶどうがゴロゴロ❗️生地よりもぶどうの比率の方が多いのでないでしょうか😆 ぶどうだからかレーズンよりも柔らかく、べったりした甘さもなく、ジューシーさ感じられました🍇リベイクするとよりぶどうの甘さが際立ちましたが、ぶどうの食感を楽しみたいならそのままの方がいいかなと😊 生地は素朴な感じですが、そこがまた食べやすくぶどうにもマッチしていいのかなと😁 クロワッサンはほんのりバター香る食べやすいパンで、あんぱんは粒あんで酒種の感じられる好み系の味でした😊 味に関しては、好みあるので、飛び抜けて美味しいというものではなかったですが、ぶどうぱんのぶどう🍇の多さと驚きに⭐️4つ付けさせていただきました😊

(Translated by Google) I bought a ``budo bread size'' filled with a large amount of dried grapes. This bread is heavy for its size. If you cut it thinly, it will be difficult to eat (a large amount of raisins will overflow). So it's best to cut it into larger pieces. It tastes great when eaten with tea. (Original) 大量に干し葡萄の詰まった「ぶどうパン大」を購入しました。 大きさの割に重量のあるパンです。 薄く切ると食べづらい（大量のレーズンが溢れてくる。） ので大きめに切ると良いですね。 紅茶と合わせて食べると最高に美味しいです。

(Translated by Google) If you love grape bread, this is a must-try. I highly recommend it. The grapes are amazing. (Original) ぶどうパン好きにはたまりません。 おすすめです。ぶどうが半端ないです

(Translated by Google) Freshly baked bread is lined up in the store to cool, so you cannot eat or drink in the morning. 🍇 The grape bread is heavy because it is full of grapes. 😃❗ Kyoho bread is expensive, so I hesitate to buy it. It is a hot topic, though. (Original) 店内では焼きたてのパンを並べて冷ましている為、朝の飲食は出来ません。🍇ぶどうパンはぶどうがぎっしり入って重いです😃❗巨峰パンは高いので躊躇します話題性はあります

(Translated by Google) [If You're Buying Bread in Yushima] I was walking around Yushima Station for the first time in a while, and I saw a bakery I'd previously shopped at... "Oh, was this the place?"... I hadn't walked this road since then, so I'd forgotten. It's a shop famous for its grape bread. I visited in 2018. I remember buying the "Kyoho Grape Bread (1 loaf for ¥1,650 at the time)." I went in today, hoping to find some grape bread to take home, and found a slightly smaller "Grape Bread (¥1,058 including tax and plastic bag)." I got home and sliced ​​it. It wasn't as surprising as the Kyoho, but there was still a decent amount of grapes in it, so it gave me a bit of a sense of happiness. I first ate it as raw bread, and then toasted it the next day. Personally, I prefer toast. Grape bread... It's a nostalgic bread that brings back fond memories. I wonder if young people these days still eat it? (Original) 【湯島でパンを買うなら】 湯島駅周辺を久しぶりに歩いていて、以前購入したことのあるパン屋さんが目の前に…『あっ、この場所だったっけ？』…それ以来、この道を歩いていなかったので忘れていた。葡萄パンで有名な店。 訪ねたのは2018年のこと。「巨峰の葡萄パン（1斤で当時1650円）」を買って帰ったことを覚えている。 今日も葡萄パンがあれば買って帰ろうと入店してみたら、少し小ぶりの「葡萄パン（税込、レジ袋込1058円）」があった。 家に帰って、カット。 巨峰の時ほどのビックリ感はないが、それなりに葡萄が大量に入っているので少し幸福感が出る。 そのままパクっとまずは生食パンのままいただき、翌日はトーストにしていただく。僕的にはトーストのほうが好きかな。 葡萄パン…。懐かしくて、何かしみじみしてしまうノスタルジックなパン。 最近の若者も食べるのだろうか？

OCT 2024 Visited early in the day but they only have a small variety of donuts available. Bought two limited time only donuts; a Halloween themed chocolate dipped french cruller and a chestnut shaped donut with whipped cream and chestnut paste in the center. Both were pretty tasty, not too sweet.

Came here on a weekday afternoon there were not many people. I chose a counter seat facing street with a view. I ordered an apple pie with iced coffee for a warm winter day. Apple pie was delicious and coffee was aromatic. I enjoyed it very much.

This branch does not offer the same comfortable seating as its Ginza branch, but nonetheless, the same variety of yummy donuts.

I visited the store on 25th December. I wanted to sit and relax after a long train ride. The store had seating for approximately 12 persons downstairs and there appeared to be seating on an upper floor. When I told the cashier I wanted to eat in, she looked around and told me there was no available space and suggested I get take out. It was then that I realised that the upstairs area was closed off. As I looked around, there was a guy sitting alone on his phone, taking up 2 tables, that could actually accommodate four people. There were also two ladies sitting adjacent to him who were taking up space for four. I was so annoyed. In a situation like that, the staff should be able to ask people who are taking up more space than they need to make some room for other paying customers. Furthermore, the upstairs dining should have been open as it appeared to be a busy time in the store and denying paying customers a place to sit comfortably and enjoy their purchase is bad service. I didn't even want to buy the items anymore but because the cashier was her overly polite Japanese self through it all, I didn't want to make a scene by refusing to pay for them and just walking away. So I paid for them and had to go find somewhere else to sit and eat them.

I just love it. It’s a franchise so it’s nothing mind blowing but it’s super consistent and the donuts are delicious. Coffee is good. I enjoyed just hanging out and watching the people.

Two of the three donuts were very tasty but the third was some kind of crispy matcha that was not good! I should have asked what it was instead of assuming! 😅 Still good overall!

Donuts and coffee are good here. I had the seasonal Sakura donuts.

after visiting Korakuen gardens, came here for coffee and a sugar doughnut for ¥500, ample seats, there's minestrone for those seeking a hot soup, also nice, as it was cold, asked for an got a cup of hot water, thank you 😊

(Translated by Google) Sunday, January 12, 2025 Today, when I went to have tea, it was occupied by many women. They were waiting for a concert to be held at Tokyo Dome. When I checked later, it was a Kinki Kids concert. As expected, a huge number of female fans flocked to the event. I agree. I went there about a week ago, and on a weekday afternoon, and there were many empty seats so I was able to relax. I often use Bido France🇫🇷 in Myogadani, but I also like this Korakuen store. It was renovated on December 27th of last year. The layout is simple and clean. It looks like each table has a power supply. The store is now more convenient and beautiful than ever before. Bread 🍞 and coffee ☕️ are still delicious. (Original) 2025年1月12日（日） 今日、お茶しに行ったら多くの女性達によって占拠されていました。東京ドームで開催されるコンサート待ちの方々でした。後で確認したら、Kinki Kidsのコンサートでした。どおりで、凄い数の女性ファンが押し寄せた訳です。納得しました。 1週間位前に、しかも平日の午後も行きましたが、その時は、空席が多くゆっくりくつろぐことができました。 私は、茗荷谷のビドフランス🇫🇷もよく利用しますが、この後楽園店も気に入っています。昨年の12月27日に改装したとのことです。シンプルでスッキリしたレイアウトになりました。各テーブルに電源も付いた様です。今まで以上に、便利で綺麗なお店になりました。パン🍞もコーヒー☕️も引き続き美味しいです。

(Translated by Google) I bought bread before going to the dome. Chocolate bread with chunks of chocolate, and in addition to chunks of chocolate, it also contains kneaded chocolate. The blackness of chocolate, the sweetness of happiness. Urban rivalry and bread, urban rivalry and chocolate, and happiness. (Original) ドーム行く前にパン購入。 チョコレートがゴロゴロ入ったチョコレートのパン、塊のチョコに加えて練り込みチョコも入ってる。 チョコの黒、幸せの甘さ。 都市対抗とパン、都市対抗とチョコレート、幸せ。

(Translated by Google) I bought the Petit Salt Bread and Honey Butter Bread at VIE DE FRANCE Korakuen Store, located near Korakuen Station. Both breads were so delicious that you could really feel the strength of VIE DE FRANCE's bread making! The Petit Bread series in particular exceeded my expectations. The Petit Salt Bread is small but has a good balance of saltiness and flavor, and is so delicious that you'll find yourself reaching for another one. The price is reasonable, so it's perfect for when you just want to eat a little bread. It's useful for satisfying your hunger or adding another dish to a meal. I highly recommend VIE DE FRANCE Korakuen Store, where you can easily enjoy delicious bread! (Original) 後楽園駅近くにある「VIE DE FRANCE 後楽園店」さんで、プチ塩パンとはちみつバターパンを購入しました。 どちらのパンも、VIE DE FRANCEさんのパン作りの底力を感じる美味しさでした！特に期待以上だったのがプチパンシリーズ。プチ塩パンは、小ぶりながらも塩気と旨味のバランスが良く、ついついもう一つ手が伸びてしまいそうになる後を引く美味しさです。 お値段もお手頃なので、「ちょっとだけパンを食べたいな」という時にぴったり。小腹を満たすのにも、食事にもう一品加えたい時にも重宝します。 手軽に美味しいパンを楽しめるVIE DE FRANCE 後楽園店さん、おすすめです！

(Translated by Google) The usual VidFrance. If you're going for a walk from here to the Toppan Printing Museum or Chuo University, there aren't many shops, so it might be a good idea to buy some food here to take while walking. In addition, there are not many affordable cafe chains such as Starbucks, Doutor, and Komeda that come out of the subway, so it may be a good idea to grab a drink or a snack here. (Original) いつものヴィドフランス。 ここから凸版印刷の博物館や中央大学方面に散策する場合は、あまり商店が無いので、食べ歩き用にここで買っておくのが良いかも。 加えて地下鉄から出てきて、スタバやドトール、コメダなど、手頃なカフェチェーンもいまひとつ店舗数が無いので、こちらで一服、軽食を摂るのが手頃かもしれません。

(Translated by Google) The customer service is not very good. It's a little pricey, and if you buy a prepared bread, it costs as much as a regular lunch. The barcode payment area is a little hard to find, but even if you get lost, there's no guidance. I've been there a few times, and there's nothing beyond the bare minimum announcements. (Original) 接客があまり良くない。ややお高めで惣菜パンを買うと普通にランチに行くのと同じくらいかかってしまいます。 バーコード決済の場所が若干分かりにくいのですが、こちらが迷っていても何の案内も無し。数回利用していますが必要最低限のアナウンス以上は何も無いです。

I had the chance to try Tokyo Melonpan after many years. I can say the food will not disappoint. The giant melonpan on the building looks a bit broken which takes away from the appearance of the store. While the person operating this location provided us with great service and a smile, we went at 1030 and the store hadn't opened yet. In fact it didn't open until after 11am.

I'm not sure if I went on an off-day or something but it was really quiet and there were maybe only 4 or 5 buns per flavor (plain, chocolate and cinnamon). The bun itself was soft and fluffy and the cookie part was the crunchy, sugary type of topping. The cinnamon flavor was only in the cookie part but chocolate was in both. Size was about right and the slashes were a good depth. I'm super biased though because my first meronpan was completely melon-flavored and the cookie part was thinner so it didn't flake off everywhere when I bit into it. That is to say, I've had better. A shame since this is highly rated amongst foreigners! But if you're looking for plain white sweet bread, then this one is for you.

Delicious! It might be a non-traditional pick based on reading other reviews but the raspberry pie was amazing.

Wow! The croissants were like back home, loved it

2019: Croissants and melonpan 180 yen. At 11AM the melonpan were still piping hot and super crunchy. Croissant was also excellent, super flakey and crispy outside, soft and stretchy inside. Service was the most unenthusiastic I've encountered in Tokyo though.

Delicious Melonpan! Try the strawberry version! It was a great small breakfast, which we enjoyed two days in a row, but on the third it was still closed at 10:30 am. That was very sad, but not sad enough to remove a star from my rating! 😁

Best melon pan I had in Japan
