Small shop, small queues start about 10 minutes before opening, after opening there are both locals and tourists who come. One group is allowed in at a time. The baguette is lovely, freshly baked, nice and crispy on the outside and airy yet substantive in the dough part. I think of all the places I’ve tried (I’ve tried a lot, I just don’t have time to leave detailed reviews everywhere) it’s my second favorite after and bread but that is just a matter of individual preference (and bread is slightly chewier in a good way in my opinion and larger).

Ps: the popular hitsuji donut is close to here, go get a ticket for purchase later before coming here (which I failed to do), they’re meant to be the best in Kyoto if not Japan! I wouldn’t know, I didn’t get a ticket, but hopefully will next time. So this is a reminder for...
Read moreI firmly believe this is some of the best bread to be found in Kyoto. This is a charming one person shop with a wide variety of breads. We happened across it just as we were peckish for a snack and decided to try. We were recommended a small walnut roll by the staff and we took it to sit along the river.
It was absolutely delicious with large chunks of actual walnut. The bread was nice and fluffy, not too dense, and delicately flavoured. We will definitely be back, and it was definitely worth the walk...
