UNIVERSAL BAKES and CAFE

Delicious! It is hard to find vegan food in Japan, and this place excels in quality and service! A jewel in Tokyo's food..

Everything has a very good quality and the taste is great! Highly recommended!

Fantastic little bakery serving homemade bread, cookies and savory items. Absolutely loved the sandwich I ordered, on a warm crusty roll with tahini and lettuce, so simple and delicious. The elderflower soda with rosemary equally tasty and refreshing. Went another morning for lattes and rolls. Limited seating however the food created here is made with lots of intention. Close to our ryokan and super close to the train station. A surprising find.

Absolutely incredible assortment of vegan baked goods. Can't wait to visit again the next time I'm in Tokyo.

Fantastic vegan bakery. The French toast is worth of the wait (about 10 minutes) oat milk latte tastes good. The place is kind of tiny, only two tables Indoor. When the weather is ok, it’s nice to seat outside. Parking is easy. There are two parking lot nearby. It’s also very close to Shimokitazawa shopping area. Great shopping and walking area. Highly recommend it.

This totally Gluten free and vegan bakery did not disappoint! Everything was delicious, the soup of the day was hearty (lentils and veggies) and perfect for the cold and rainy day we were there. They warmed up all the pastries we ate in the cafe and were very accommodating by putting us outside for a bit on a bench when there wasn’t enough room inside quite yet. I bought tons to take home with me, and will definitely be back!

They always have seasonal bakes and gave us nice recommendations! There’s another shop in Shimokitazawa but this store is suitable for brekkie or brunch :)

Their food is delicious, period. Vegan or not vegan this is the place to go. I had their french toast and curry pan this time and it was amazing. I also highly recommend their cinnamon donuts and melon pan. The soft inside and crunch outside of the melon pan is second to none.

Everything is vegan here. As a meat-eater, I had a surprisingly yummy breakfast here!

Will visit again! Haha!

Had a delicious iced soy latte and French toast and icecream. Maybe the best vegan French toast I have ever had. The place is super cute, and the staff are so nice. I also noticed a second location on a walk in the area later on, which is great.

Stumbled upon this spot while wandering and we were absolutely charmed! Vibes were immaculate and the pastries delicious. One of the best melon pans I’ve had. Their homemade soda was the perfect pick me up for summer.

Limited seating but worth the wait! 💕

A very good vegan bakery. Been here three times and they bake different menu items every time I visit there. I love their focaccia and white sauce with onion bread. This time I had their garlic bread and was incredibly crispy and tasted delicious. Will keep visiting many times to try their all their items!

I tried their matcha muffin and their scone, it was really good! I like the bakery, specially the fact that everything’s vegan!!!

Highly recommend vegan bakery. Very high quality of products.

All the breads here are 100% plant based and without any compromises on texture or taste. I was so impressed by the quality of each bread and loved the freshly baked Melon Pan! Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys bread.

Great food! Not many seats so if you want to eat in, you might want to get there early.

Great place, I found the place exploring the neighborhood and I am happy I went there. They have tons of vegan pastries and salty meal, I took a figue toast and it was great.

Simply put, it's the best vegan bakery I've ever been to (and I've been to a lot). In a very cute and trendy neighborhood, but not busy -- great place for indoor or outdoor dining.

I am usually not a fan of Melon Pan but this one was very good! Staff was nice as well

Cutest place workers r so nice and the coffee is sooo good. They were playing Jhene Aiko too so immaculate vibes 🥰❤
