I visited a popular bakery called "Boulangerie & Cafe GU" within walking distance from the hotel where I was staying, as they open early in the morning and offer dine-in options. The bakery is located near Osaka Metro Tanimachi Yonchome Station, facing Honmachi Street. I arrived at 7:15 am, earlier than their 7:30 am opening time, and was the only one waiting outside initially. Shortly after, more customers started arriving. When I mentioned to the staff that it was my first time there and I wanted to have breakfast, they explained that I could choose from the bread displayed outside or opt for their breakfast set, which includes 3 assorted bread, fresh vegetables, a small side dish, and a drink for 500 yen. I added a soup for an extra 100 yen and ordered a hot coffee as my drink (total 660 yen). I moved to the cafe area at the back of the shop, where the staff efficiently served my breakfast set. It consisted of a plate with bread, salad, ham and egg salad, a cup of soup, and a coffee cup. The bread included a hard roll, a round bread, and a slice of toast, all of which were delicious when paired with butter or egg salad. The quality of the breakfast for this price was exceptional, far superior to the typical breakfast sets offered at fast-food chains. I was very satisfied with the delicious breakfast experience.

Within walking distance from Tanimachi Yonchome on the Osaka Metro. I always use this place for takeout, and it's always bustling with customers around lunchtime. There is a cafe in the back that I've been curious about for a while. First, I secure a seat and then line up at the counter. By 12 o'clock, it's usually packed, but you can write your name on a waiting list if that's the case. - Today's Salad (550 yen): Today's special is "Teriyaki Chicken, Colorful Beans, Thousand Island Dressing." The lettuce is plentiful and fresh, with a nice crunch. It comes with two slices of crispy thin French bread. - Today's Soup (495 yen): It was a potato potage, served in a large cup with croutons on top. It's satisfying on its own! The shop offers a variety of bread, including Danish pastries with seasonal fruits, sandwiches made with baguettes, croissants, coppe pan, melon pan, and anpan. My go-to purchase every time is their donuts! Their pies are delicious too. You can also enjoy the bread you purchase in the shop for eat-in. They offer a variety of specialty coffees as well. There are many delicious bakeries around here, so I like to visit different ones depending on my mood.

This bakery is so delicious that I wish it were in my neighborhood. The taste of the bread itself is incredibly delicious. It's amazing how tasty bakeries can be. I went around lunchtime, so I just went to the café, but next time I want to try their breakfast. There were a lot of foreigners, so I thought it must be popular.

Croissant Izumi 220 yen Made with AOP certified butter from Normandy Mikai Izumi. Levan Croque 320 yen Iced Latte 550 yen The croissant had a crispy exterior and the moment I took a bite, the aroma of butter spread out and it was delicious. The Croque Monsieur had the perfect balance of Bechamel sauce and ham's saltiness.

Osaka Top 100 Stores Journey #7 - Bakery in Tanimachi 4-chome. Croissant for 200 yen, Curry Bread for 170 yen, Melon Pan, and Mentaiko France for 220 yen, and more. I have also been to Guu in Tanimachi 6-chome, but this bakery is definitely a reliable choice. They offer eat-in options and it's always bustling with customers. The nearby parking lot is 330 yen for 30 minutes, so taking the train might be a better option.

The chocolate croissant was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a perfect balance of chocolate sweetness and a hint of saltiness in the dough. The palmier was large and satisfyingly delicious. And the best part was the Kouign-Amann, with a crunchy top and a firm dough, it was my favorite. I would definitely come back just for it!

I was planning to go to a bakery & cafe called Guu in Osaka's Tanimachi, but it was closed for a holiday. I ended up getting a takeout instead, and it was delicious. The balance of bread focaccia sandwich with cheese and tomato was good!

I bought three breads from a bakery in Tanamachi 4-chome. The first one is a homemade cream bread (170 yen) with delicious custard cream. The second one is a homemade Gout curry bread (200 yen) with authentic and tasty curry. The bread crust is thin and crispy. The last one is the Spring Love Coppe, Peanut Butter Sandwich (280 yen) with rich peanut butter filling. The bread is soft and fluffy.

On the way to a beer bar for dinner, I stopped by a famous bakery and bought some bread. There were various cute breads lined up elegantly in the store. Each bread is small and cute, so you can eat a lot of them. The bread is made with high-quality wheat flour that every bread maker knows, such as Kitano Kaori and Haru Yo Koi. Today, I had a curry bread and it was delicious with well-balanced ingredients and dough. This bakery cafe opened in 2013 with a desire to offer really delicious coffee, and the back of the store is a cafe space. I would like to try their proud coffee next time! This shop has become a must-visit place when going to Tanimachi 4-chome. The breads I bought this time are as follows: Croissant (220 yen), Baked Curry Bread (210 yen), Walnut Apple (220 yen), Ham & Cheese (170 yen), Black Bean Bread (230 yen).

The shop had a spacious seating area for dining in, but this time I got takeout! The hard bread was delicious, especially this chicken sandwich was very tasty! Definitely try the hard bread here!

Located just a short walk from Tanimachi 4-chome Station on the Osaka Metro, this stylish shop also has a café. This time, I got a takeout for breakfast. It was so hot even in the morning that I opted for a light croissant. Despite the heavy feeling from the temperature, the crispy texture and the aroma of butter in the croissant were delightful. I enjoyed it very much.

I went to Osaka after a long time. When I woke up in the morning and searched for a bakery nearby, I found this shop just 2 minutes from the hotel I was staying at. It was already crowded with people working nearby, and it was clear how popular it was. They had a wide variety of bread, all of them very appealing! And since it's located in a business district, all the breads were not too big, with a calculated size that makes them easy to eat without taking up much space on your desk if you bring them to work. The ones I bought this time were as follows: - Hakata Mentaiko French - Pistachio Danish - Honey Butter Sandwich All of them were excellent, but the one that left the biggest impression was the Pistachio Danish. Not only was the Danish delicious, but the richness of the pistachio cream combined with the acidity of the strawberry was just perfect. They also have a café inside, making it a very convenient shop. Next time I stay nearby, I'll definitely buy more, including their side dishes. Thank you for the delicious food.

PAN WEST, one of the top 100 bread shops in 2022. I arrived around 10:15 on the weekend, but the morning set was already over by 10:30. However, since I came all this way, I decided to dine in the store. I wrote my name on the list and waited. I was about third in line, but I was called quickly and given a number tag to choose my favorite bread and line up at the register. There seemed to be a broken register, so there was quite a long line. The morning set is available from 7:30 to 10:30, and it ends when supplies run out. The whole wheat roll with ham and smoked cheese (130 yen + tax) and morning service coffee (350 yen + tax) were delicious. The bread was reheated. The ham was flavorful and salty, and the bread was very tasty. The coffee was Brazil Gashpe Classico. Although I missed the morning set, I might have been too full for a French lunch, so it all worked out in the end.

Located just a short walk from Tanimachi Yonchome Station in Osaka's Chuo Ward, this bakery was selected as one of the top 100 bakeries in Japan for 2022. For breakfast, I purchased the Levain croque monsieur (290 yen + tax) and the Spicy Chili Dog (360 yen + tax) and enjoyed them at my hotel. It seems that you can also dine in at the store. The Levain croque monsieur was delicious with a great balance of flavors. The Chili Dog was just a typical spicy hot dog, and I felt it was a bit overpriced and not necessary. They accept PayPay as a payment method.

I often pass by this place on my way home from work. I love bread, so I always have a hard time choosing because they all look delicious (and they really are). The prices are not that cheap (average for this type of shop?), so I always end up getting my usual. My favorite is the honey butter sandwich (no photo, haha), and I always get it to go, but I'd love to try eating it in the cafe sometime.

I came here for an early dinner to enjoy some delicious bread. The cafe's dining space is spacious and has a relaxed atmosphere. Since it was in the evening, there were not many bread options available, but I chose a croissant, piroshki, keema curry tartine, and chestnut Danish. The croissant was crispy and similar to the ones I had in France. My favorite was the chestnut Danish, with rum-soaked chestnuts that tasted delicious, almost like a canelé. They also offer a morning set, so I might come back next time for breakfast.

Second visit after 4.5 years^^; The bread selection looks delicious. They bake bread inside. Secure a seat first, then order at the register. They offer two types of morning sets: with soup for ¥600, without soup for ¥500. I ordered the set without soup and an iced coffee. The salad with basil mayonnaise, toast, company bread, and creamed spinach were all delicious. The staff speaks English fluently, which is impressive. The atmosphere inside is calm and relaxing, perfect for taking your time. Morning sets are available until 10:30 am.

First time visiting this restaurant. I went for lunch on a weekday before noon and decided to dine in. The exterior and interior of the place are very clean and nice. I tried the Spring Love Dog - Croquette Sandwich - for 330 yen. It was filled with delicious croquette and lots of crunchy cabbage, all sandwiched with their original special sauce. It was so good that I didn't even need to reheat it. The white soft and fluffy coppe bread of the Spring Love and the tasty croquette make for a delicious combination. The portion was generous and I thought it was a great deal for only 330 yen. I also had an Iced Cafe Latte for 550 yen, which was perfect for the hot day. It was easy to drink and tasted delicious. It was so relaxing. By noon, more and more customers started coming in, and the dining area was full while there was a line at the register.

This is my first time dining inside the shop. I chose a chicken sandwich from the display and ate it inside. The mustard cream was a nice touch and the meat was tender. It might be easier to eat if the sandwich was cut into smaller pieces. The cafe latte was also good and priced at 550 yen.

A bakery located just a short walk from Tanimachi Yonchome Station. They have a seating area inside where you can enjoy breakfast in the morning. I went in the evening this day, so I got takeout. I bought some piroshki and pork belly sausage. The piroshki had a well-seasoned minced meat filling that paired perfectly with the oil-absorbed bread! The pork belly sausage was small but crispy, and the sausage had a strong fatty flavor that was delicious. Thank you for the meal.
