My girlfriend introduced me to this place and I will be honest with you. It is my number 2 goto bakery. My number 1 goto bakery is Pointage a few blocks away, but sometimes I am caught off gaurd by cl...
This adorable dessert shop boasts carrying NY Cheesecake and Apple Pie. The seating inside is quite quaint, with apples used for decorations. The desserts all looked really fresh and rich. There was c...
Typical Japanese bakery chain located all over Tokyo, but this particular chain has more of the things I like than most other bakery chains. The quiche is fabulous, the chocolate chip muffins are hea...

Good food, satisfactory service, and a comfortable atmosphere. They have a huge TV screen behind the bar as well which was playing a movie when we visited. Not a bad place to visit for lunch or a ca...
Cafes, Japanese Sweets & Cafes, Bakery ( Roppongi )
Gorgeous and chic this little sweets cafe is. Tried several of their chocolates and cakes, however, their macaroons were to die for! These make phenomenal gifts/omiyage for those outside Tokyo, as man...
Though I'm not a huge bagel person, I really enjoyed the bagels here. They have some really unique ones that you can't find in the U.S., and they're very reasonably priced, too. The staff is really fr...
I love most Japanese bakeries, but I really liked this one. They have a wide selection of breads, croissants, rolls, muffins and pastries. I got a chocolate muffin which was delicious and not very swe...
I went to this dessert shop/cafe for my birthday with my boyfriend. Immediately, we were bathed in a sense of eloquence and refinement, not only from the interior design of the cafe, but also from th...
Elegant and delicious desserts, the croissants are wonderful (and I usually don't even like croissants). TV cameras are often filming in here and I heard some customers say that they had come from Chi...
Usually when someone sees a pancake in Japan, it is only a dessert item, so to indulge in it as a meal would make me feel awkward and a bit silly. But here though, pancakes are the star like they are...

PanDoll is exactly what'd you think a Japanese bakery should look, smell, and most importantly, taste like. The place isn't big: shelves line the wall, stacked with trays of freshly baked pastries and...
This is fantastic bread. I have to confess I don't really care for Japanese soft bread, shokupan. I like crusty, chewy and slightly heavy bread, and Levain makes some of the best I've had in Tokyo. Th...
I got my friend a cake for her birthday from here. It was absolutely amazing. It was a chocolate cream one with strawberries, which I highly recommend. It was delicate and very rich and tasty. Also, i...
Tokyo has spoiled me to expect flawless pastries. Anywhere else in the world, I'd become a die-hard regular of a pastry shop that could match the standards of Tokyo's top-end patissiers.
The problem...
This is one of the better sandwich shops in Tokyo.
This delicatessen style shop is in Atre (Ebisu Station) and they serve about 9-12 varieties of sandwiches depending on the time and day you go. Kat...
A small open shop within the station, this is a great place to try a variety of Japanese bagels. Fruit flavors, chocolatey bagels, and savory ones like soy and wasabi, etc. The shop also features a va...
