The best bakery in Tokyo - Edit
Just amazing! In our opinion, this has to be the best place for baked goodies in Tokyo. We came by in the morning for some great coffee and got a big bag with different baked goods. They have mostly sweet options but if you are lucky, you might be able to get a slice of their amazing vegan pizza as well. Be sure to stop by early in the day, as they are quite famous and are likely to be sold out at some point in the afternoon. Also, you have to try their almond donut, this was probably the best item that we have tried.

One of the best vegan bakeries anywhere - Edit
Shimokitazawa-neighbourhood bakery on 2nd floor of modern building with a variety of restaurants and shops. The quality of the baking is excellent. Breads, many varieties doughnuts, and other yummy baked goods. Also serves hot and cold drinks with oat milk or soy milk. Many items also gluten free. The Berry Choco Crumble is highly recommended. Everything here will make you taste buds sing.

Amazing all vegan bakery! They have a partnership with “Flux Cafe” which is on the same floor, just a few metres away. If it’s raining you can eat your Universal Bakes sweets there!

So yum! - Edit
A lovely little cafe we visited after the Cat temple.
Read moreSo many options! Croissant, curry bread and potato bread we must haves.
We didn't understand that we had to order a soup to eat in so that we could sit down and eat. But after a google translation, we were able to sit down and enjoy our meal.
Pros: Many options, Delicious!

Best vegan bakery ever - Edit
I’ve been vegan for 24 years and this place had the best baked goods I’ve ever had! The chocolate croissant alone was worth the long trip to Japan. Other standouts: butter bread with yuzu, the glazed donuts, and the chocolate bun. The lemonade was also very refreshing. I could eat here every day!

Lovely vegan bakery - Edit
My favorite vegan bakery shop provides various bread such as doughnuts, savory bread etc.
Read moreVegan croissants are also lovely!!!
✴︎There is a place to eat outside only, so if you order drink at flux cafe is next to the bakery shop, you can enjoy eating them at the cafe.
Pros: A Gluten-free option is available.
Cons: There are tables and chairs outside only

Best Vegan Bakery In Tokyo - Edit
We visited both locations and were not disappointed. Best bakery with a variety of savory and sweet options. We tried a sweet and savory toast, both delicious but preferred the savory option. And later tried the red bean paste doughnut, a lemon glaze doughnut (not pictured), and a curry stuffed bread (not pictured because it was devoured). Would've gone back again if given the opportunity.

The donuts are amazing - Edit
I got the glazed donut and it’s the closest thing I’ve had to a Krispy Kreme donut since going vegan. So fluffy and delicious. Totemo Oishii desu!

Bakery heaven - Edit
Oh my god the chocolate donut.. I don’t know how it has the right to be so delicious. I’m convinced anything made at Universal Bakes is bound to be amazing. The chocolate and raspberry croissant was so decadent and the salty bun with kelp inside was out of this world!

Doughnut and curry bread was very light and fluffy. Everything full of flavour and thoroughly enjoyed it. Staff were friendly and descriptions were in English.
Lots of seating area outside to eat😄
Pros: Lots of choice , Tasty , Outdoor seating available

Best vegan chocolate croissant… - Edit
Chocolate croissants were my favorite before becoming vegan and I have yet to find a vegan version that matches the flaky texture that I remember. Well, the chocolate croissant they make here comes close enough. It was so good. I was impressed by the variety of donuts and pastries they offer at this all vegan bakery as well. Simply wow’ed. Every vegan should pay this place a visit if ever in Tokyo.

Very good bakes - Edit
I tried the old school chocolate donut and the coffee bun. The chocolate on the donut was very good but the donut was a bit too dry, still yummy though. The coffee bun was very delicious, recommend!

Very fresh and high quality! - Edit
Absolutely loved the salted rolls. Doughnuts holes or "children" were very fresh and light. You can't sit inside but there are benches and sub umbrellas outside. Friendly staff.
