Last update :

In 1874, they developed the original "sake-kasu anpan," a bread made from sake yeast and filled with sweetened azuki bean paste. Since then, they have continued to make it using the same method. The bean paste uses carefully selected azuki beans from Hokkaido, and the bread is topped with salt-pickled cherry blossoms, which add a pleasant salty accent. In addition to anpan, they offer a wide variety of flavors, such as cream, bean butter, and fig. Freshly baked bread is lined up every day.
On the first floor, there is a bakery, while the second floor offers a café where you can enjoy light meals and sweets like sandwiches and cakes. The third floor serves Western dishes like beef stew at the "Western Grill," and the fourth floor houses a casual French bistro, "Arbre Village."

    Awesome!!
    They have two kinds: Tsubu-an (with whole beans) and Koshi-an (smooth and fine, no bean texture).
    Personally, I highly recommend the Tsubu-an!

    When it comes to delicious red bean bread in Tokyo, Ginza Kimuraya is definitely the top spot.
    Their cream-filled red bean bread is especially famous—it's their signature! Highly recommend!!!

    Besides the delicious red bean bread, the Western-style beef stew upstairs is amazing! My friends and I had the lunch set, and you can eat as much bread as you want. The staff kept bringing out freshly baked bread to our table, and they were super friendly, always recommending different kinds. I definitely want to come back next time.
