Top 3 famous bread shops in Yoyogi-Uehara
Yoyogi-Uehara is a hotbed of delicious bakeries. However, each shop has its own unique features, so it's hard to say which one is the best. First, we'll introduce three popular shops.
There's always a line! Katane Bakery, a super famous bakery in Nishihara
Even though it's a short walk from the station, this bakery is loved by locals and always has a line. The prices are reasonable, so it seems like a lot of people use it on a daily basis. The bread has a high-quality texture and is so delicious you'll want to eat it every day. The baguette has a nice, rich wheat aroma when you bite into it, and the muffins are also consistently high quality. Of course, the sweet breads, with nuts, cream, and jams, are all handmade and full of originality, so they taste and smell delicious.

A former bakery chef from the five-star Hotel de Crillon in Paris opened this bakery in Yoyogi-Uehara in 2008. The popular croissants are the best in the area in terms of taste and aroma. The popular Danishes, made with Camembert, honey, and custard cream, are all top-notch and made with the best ingredients, giving them a genuine European taste. There is a wide variety of breads, from hard breads to savory breads and sliced bread, and you won't be disappointed no matter what you try. They're not cheap, but the filling taste is well worth the price.

Levain, the original natural yeast bread with the simple taste of bread
Winner of Tabelog's "Top 100 Bread Shops 2019." This shop serves authentic natural yeast bread with a chewy texture and sour taste. The saltiness of the dough and the aroma of olive oil and dried fruit are popular among connoisseurs. Although tastes vary, we recommend that you try their heavy, authentic bread, which is a departure from the fluffy bread of Japan. This shop is also popular with foreigners.
