10/10 Amazing - Must Try😋🔥 - Edit
The absolute best vegan pastries I’ve ever had in my life. I will be dreaming about the pistachio croissant, it was perfectly flaky and the creaminess inside was light and not too sweet. The old-fashioned chocolate doughnut was dense and delicious. The egg salad sandwich was a must try and I will definitely try to re-create this at home. I will be back again and again.

wow - Edit
so so so gut. Hab selten so tolle veganes Gebäck gegessen ob süß oder salzig es ist für jeden was dabei. Für veganerinnen der absolute Traum. Ich hatte das Tandoori Chicken Sandwich, das unfassbar frisch und lecker war. Die kleinen veganen Pizzas mit veganem Käse sind auch klasse und auch die süßen Gebäcke sehr lecker. Ein Besuch wert für jeden

Vegan Bakery not to be missed - Edit
This is perfect. Go early as they have a wide range of both sweet and savoury pastries. The bread for the "egg" sandwich was the fluffiest I've ever had. Such a gem for vegans.

Yum! - Edit
Ordered several things through Uber Eats and particularly enjoyed the spinach. Cheese roll. Several items were out of stock by the time I went in, but enjoyed this one very much.

Was great to find a vegan bakery in Tokyo but I got there around 3/3:30 and it was pretty much empty. What I did get was awesome though!

Vegan bakery - Edit
Vegan or not this place is delicious!! Extraordinary flavor and assortment. Both sweet and savory options. Prepare to overeat! Not used to this many options as a vegan, very refreshing. No place to sit but there’s a nice terrace in front.

Be prepared to stock up - Edit
I would loved to have bought more, but alas I have no freezer. I took a sandwich for later and a donut. The donut was a bit oily but still yummy and the sando was great.

Amazing vegan bake house! - Edit
Found this little gem hidden away on the second floor of the reload mall. I ordered an almond croissant which was sensational. Everything looked amazing and if I hadn’t just had lunch I would have eaten everything!

Delicious - Edit
Delicious, I tried this bakery at least 3 times so far, they always have new stuffs coming, so, it’s worth to check once in a while and see what’s new. The carrot cake and muffin were amazing. Definitely a must go for everyone even more if you are vegan.

Soft roll w red bean paste - Edit
Stopped by here and got a soft roll with red bean paste and some sort of cream cheese stuffed roll… incredible. Seems like the kind of place that you can’t go wrong on!

Delicious donuts - Edit
I arrived pretty early in the morning hoping to get a vegan curry pan but it seems that's not an early morning option at either branch. We got some donuts to take away and they were delicious.
Read moreI got the donut holes covered with kinako. I thought this worked really well in places of sugar, the donuts were still sweet but now with a bit of a roasted nutty taste on top of it.
My partner got a chocolate cookie donut. It was a bit crispier around the edges and denser than a regular donut and she loved it.

Bakery heaven - Edit
Oh how I love both universal bakes locations. This one was super close to our hotel, which meant having fresh and delicious pastries basically everyday.
Read moreThey have a variety of options which change daily. These can include muffins, donuts, loaf, cookies, breads, croissants, and more. Everything is amazing. Will always come back for more.
