This place is worth the wait! The line moves pretty quickly, so don’t be intimidated if you see one outside. There’s a section that is just for drinks and one for pastries. I didn’t try the drinks since I just had coffee, but will definitely try them next time.The pastries are delicious and have good variety. The prices are unbelievably reasonable, since I think they could easily charge 2 or 3 times more. The bread is great quality and they have creative offerings. I got the Fish Filet Panini ($3.95) and the Smores Danish (~$3.50). They were both delightful. The balance of flavors in each bread were good, not too salty (for the Fish) or sweet (for the Smores). I wish I could try one of everything they had!The staff are super friendly and the shop is cute. There isn’t seating inside since there’s just people lining up for their order, but there’s a big street and park nearby

As someone whose hobby was basically visiting every bakery I could while living in Japan for 2+ years, I can say that this place is better than most of them. I got 7 different breads to try here and they were all either good or excellent.One star off for the drinks. I didn’t get the taro one because, when I asked, they told me the taro was powdered rather than fresh. The lavender latte I chose instead didn’t have a strong lavender taste. That was likely my fault for asking for reduced sugar which I’m guessing reduced the lavender flavor as well, but that isn’t ideal.I might try a different drink next time or skip that entirely, but I’d definitely come back for the bread.

This is a must stop! If you are in the area please try! There are 2 lines… if you just want coffee go to the coffee line and if you want both then stand in the normal pastry line.Everything we ordered was delicious and freshly baked. Each pastry was still warm. Our favorites … salt and butter roll, kobo Kuma, japanini, strawberry milk cream. Wanted to try the cheesy garlic bread but they were still baking. I guess that gives us another reason to come back.And for the drinks … definitely try their specialty drinks. We went with the matcha sea salt cold brew and sea salt taro latte. The taro latte was out of this world and one of my favorite drinks ever! The sea salt is much better than Starbucks. The drink size is small but it lasted for a real long time.Staff is very friendly and helpful especially for first timers asking questions about this pastry and that pastry haha

There are not many types of bread, but it has popular flavors and does not contain any food additives. So I think it is a safe bread for children to eat.Coffee is so delicious. I think coffee has strong caffeine, so I cant sleep after drinking it. :)

I really love this bakery! Got there early in the morning a little bit past when they opened and there was a little bit of a line at the time but not too bad. I think between my brother and I we ordered almost $150 worth of baked goods and everything weve had from this place has been great. The matcha latte was on point, one of the better ones that Ive had in a while and I really loved the matcha melon pan. Definitely recommend this place if you want to get some good baked goods or coffee or matcha in the morning.

Highly recommend this place. They have a great range of breads. We tried a couple, from savoury to sweet breads . They were freshly baked, soft, and buttery. Very yummy! For drinks, we had Cold Brew, and it hit the spot with our craving for caffeine. The best one had since arriving in town from Oz.Their speciality drinks, Matcha range, was amazing. Luckily, we decided to try them.The team members were amazing. This is even after I made mistake of picking up the wrong drinks because we have the same name. Apologises for this. Thank you for hospitality.

The food was delicious and my latte, amazing. I will definitely go back for more. I recommend the bun with curry inside. I forgot the name, maybe Curry Pan.

It was a great experience. The line was long but totally worth it. Really nice interior and great bread and pastry selection. The vanilla custard Kobokuma was amazing (and my wife loved how cute it was) the sweet potato (chef’s kiss) and the curry pan was excellent. Will come back
