From baguettes and croissants to melonpan and aromatic herb focaccia, all the goodies at this vegan bakery are free from eggs, milk, butter and honey. We recommend the amazake roll, which has a naturally sweetened white bean paste mixed with amazake (a sweet fermented rice drink) in the centre of a satisfyingly chewy bread roll. The goods are baked three times a day – early morning, around midday and in the afternoon – guaranteeing bread that is fresh-off-the-oven no matter when you visit.
Veganism was once foreign to Japan, but we’ve been seeing more and more vegan and vegetarian-friendly restaurants and cafés pop up around Tokyo in recent years. While many of them offer delicious meals to eat in, sometimes we just need something to grab on the go on busy days.
If you’re a plant-based eater looking to pick up a quick morning breakfast or snack to go, we’ve got you covered. The list of bakeries below offer exclusively vegan goods, including buttery croissants, tarts, cookies, bun, rolls and other pastries that, of course, don’t use any milk, egg, butter or any other animal products.
