te cor gentil - vegan bakes — Restaurant in Tokyo

This little bakery is a MUST VISIT for anyone that enjoys a sweet or savoury pastry/bread. It was a huge highlight of our Japan holiday and the baked goods/pastries were the most delicious things that we have ever tried! We couldn't believe how good the quality was - the mini pizza was unbelievably good (the cheese looked like the real deal) and the sweet (but not overly sweet!) custard bread were my personal favourites but honestly I loved everything I tried. Not to mention, the prices were much more affordable than we were expecting (approx 300-500 yen for each item), considering everything was made by hand, a lot of love and attention to detail.

After visiting the bakery in our first week of Japan, we made to sure to return to Tokyo before flying out at the end of our 4 week trip and visit twice more. If we lived in Japan, we would be regulars!

I cannot express how beautiful the food was. The staff were so friendly, polite and patient with us as we were trying to decide what to buy.

It is amazing to experience how good vegan food can be and that animal products are not necessary! I wish this place would become a franchise and go international!

Thank you for...

Amazing! So hard to find vegan options in Japan, specially good ones. This place was not only the best vegan pastry in Tokyo or Japan, but even better than what I’ve had from French Patisseries (baked by French Chef)! The Pistachio croissant will not disappoint you, I promise! The pastry itself crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, made to perfection. The filling cream out of this world, you can taste the real pistachio they use! On my way to the Airport I had to make a stop to grad more of their food. The staff really friendly and nice, only recommendation I would give is if possible in the future, to have more inside space for people to enjoy the food without the heat of the Japan summer. Honestly, 10000000/10.

Oh, almost forgot to mention, the price is really good too, specially for the quality of...

i was absolutely blown away. want vegan bakes? GO HERE! please! it's a bit on the pricey side, i guess?! for japan?? but where i live in canada, we'd charge more for these goodies. croissants all handmade and plant based was ¥550. a tomato, basil and olive pizza with handmade cheese? ¥420 and it was the size of my face, not huge but NOT tiny. maple butter and walnut filled little sandwich guy? ¥320. i am full, LITERALLY happy dancing and wish i could fit more of their food in my tummy. oh, the staff was VERY friendly too, but i'm not sure how their english is (i didn't order in english). the store is small though, no dining INSIDE space, only a bench an two tables outside that seat four. this is definitely a "take away" place overall. 5/5 recommend stopping by if you've got a dairy allergy or if...
