Founded in Kyoto during the late Muromachi period, Toraya expanded to Tokyo in 1869, following the capital's move from Kyoto to Tokyo. Although the Kyoto shop continued its operations, Toraya established its presence in Akasaka, Tokyo from 1879. In 1964, they relocated to their current location, and in 2018, the entire store underwent a renovation and celebrated its grand reopening.
The spacious store, which includes a production area, boasts a second-floor sales area, a third-floor cafe (Toraya Karyo), and a basement gallery. Not only can you find their classic yokan and seasonal fresh sweets in the expansive sales area, but there are also store-exclusive items you shouldn't miss.
In the third-floor Karyo, you can enjoy classic sweet treats such as "Anmitsu (with black syrup)" and "Oshiruko" that brings out the flavors of Wasanbon sugar. There are also light meals, which incorporate traditional confectionery ingredients like red beans and tsukune yams, such as "Akasaka Seasonal Meal."
Additionally, the basement gallery regularly hosts exhibits like a confectionery archive, Toraya library materials, and themed exhibitions about Japanese sweets and culture.

日本的和菓子充滿視覺美感又精緻又好吃，尤其特製的羊羹，台灣的羊羹販賣少，來到此會特別買回去當伴手禮，尤其搭配一杯茶，是絕妙組合!
