The City Bakery Aoyama — Restaurant in Tokyo

A sad disappointment of a bakery. make sure to ask them if the items were baked that day. Everything I purchased was at least a day old. hard stale items with no flavor. One muffin was so hard i could have used it as a weapon.everything had a heavy flour taste as if it was mixed improperly. Nice looking choices but everything I got was bad. Staff at the counter was upset about having to work as if we were bothering her. Tokyo has so many great bakeries to choose from so do yourself a favor and pass on this one. the 7-11 up the street has better fresher choices. Will not return & wish I could get me money back for all the stale items...

I’ve heard about this place so much so I finally tried it! Looks good so far but you must try it !! I saw Pretzel croissant so I got em, and a chocolate cookie yum yum and a baked bacon bread… Honestly it was not bad but not so great for the hype! Kinda disappointed since in Aoyama which is known for one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in Tokyo. I remember pretzel croissant was once popular in NYC and i loved it, I don’t know why it disappeared lol but not quite what I remembered. And chocolate cookie was good but not very good lol …i wish the chocolate was semi...

It is a nice and roomy coffee place, nice Starbucks-inspired atmosphere and concept except they have a large choice of sweet pastries and salty sandwiches. Their stuff tastes pretty good. But it is crazy expensive. The staff is rather not welcoming nor warm. They have that distancing attitude and feel sad and unhappy all the time. No smile no eye contact....
