▼Location▼ Located 150m south from the south exit of Kintetsu Imazato Station on Imazato Station Street on the right side. ▼About the Shop▼ Naruto-ya HP was established in 1934 as a bakery shop in Higashi Sumiyoshi-ku, Osaka, and has expanded its business as a chain of bakery and retail stores. The Imazato branch, opened in 1953, now includes a bakery department, a cake sales department, and a café. ▼Menu▼ They offer various types of sweet bread, savory and cooking bread, soft and hard types, and more. ▼Food I Tried▼ ▽Delicious Cream Pan 140 yen▽ A glove-shaped cream pan with sugar sprinkled on top. The simple-textured bread contains a smooth custard cream with a slight eggy flavor, making it quite tasty. ▽Tamago Pan 140 yen▽ A bread made with eggs, topped with mayonnaise and filled with finely chopped egg salad. The combination of mayo and egg salad is quite good. ▼Impressions▼ Naruto-ya is a bakery chain established in 1934 in Osaka. They have multiple stores in the city center, with the current headquarters located in Momodani. They also have a bakery company in Kaminoki Kita, with a direct sales outlet. The Imazato branch, opened in 1953, now includes a café called Jimmy and a cake sales section called Look. I purchased the above bread at this store, and while they have simple flavors, I found them quite enjoyable. I look forward to trying their café next time.

I walked south from Kintetsu Imazato Station to find a place for dinner tonight. On the way, I found a bakery. I realized I didn't have bread for tomorrow morning, so I was relieved. (*´ｪ`*)...Phew♡ "Narutoya Imazato Store" is a bakery located at the west exit of JR Gakken Toshi Line Kyobashi Station, just like the one in Imazato. I actually love their egg bread. The store also has a cafe space, and it's much bigger than the Kyobashi Station store. However, they didn't have many bread options available! My favorite egg bread was sold out, and they didn't have any sandwich bread or baguettes either! But, well, it's understandable because it was almost 7:30 pm. Most bakeries near my place would be closed by then. I ended up choosing from the remaining bread options: - Three Cheese Bread...150 yen (excluding tax) - Pizza Bread...150 yen (excluding tax) There's nothing particularly noteworthy about this place, but the prices are really cheap, and the bread is quite tasty! Thank you for being open, "Narutoya Imazato Store"! Thank you for the meal!

I love the bread from Naruto-ya and often buy it. I use the restaurant occasionally. This time, I had the chicken nanban set meal, and my daughter had carbonara as a single item. The tartar sauce on the chicken nanban was fluffy and generous! It's a delight for tartar sauce lovers. The chicken nanban had a crispy and firm coating. It's like the traditional set meals you find in old-fashioned cafes! The staff were also veteran-like older ladies, giving the restaurant a Showa-era atmosphere.

I often buy my everyday bread here to eat at home. It's cheap, soft, and crispy. The simple taste never gets old and is perfect for breakfast. This time, I also bought the Osaka Rugby Curry Bread. It's shaped like a rugby ball, inspired by the rugby town of Osaka. Inside, there's spicy curry and simmered beef tendon, making it the perfect side dish bread. They make it fresh right away when you order at the register, which is such a nice service. It's always delicious when it's hot and fresh. It's quite filling, so one is enough to satisfy you. It's a down-to-earth bakery loved by the locals. The cafe space is also great, so it's always bustling with locals having tea or lunch. It's a lively and wonderful shop. Thank you for the meal.

I felt like eating fish, so I went to Narutoya!! It's funny to go to a bakery to eat fish, right?! The weather was really nice, so I was lucky to sit by the window. I can take beautiful photos and the morning sun is so energizing! I had a Japanese set meal with salmon, seaweed, and white rice. This is how I start my day! While chatting with my friends here, I felt like having more food and ended up buying and eating bread again! I remember having a Japanese set meal + bread before. I guess I haven't changed much in a year! Wanna change myself to be better.

Until May 2019, I realized that I had only used this place for breakfast before. I have actually used it quite often as a meeting place for discussions. It was surprising even to myself (laughs). I had some time before the meeting, so I ordered a meal. - Japanese-style mentaiko pasta The noodles were a bit like instant noodles, with a firm texture, but the flavor was easy to understand and suited my taste. It was delicious! I had an iced coffee after the meal, and then it was time for the meeting, so I left. Thank you for the meal.

"At Narutoya for breakfast. I always look forward to it and feel excited when I can go. I order the Good Morning Set in the pleasant aroma. Good morning. The corn soup gently soothes my throat and stomach, helping me relax. It's delicious. Although I always end up buying extra bread and bringing it in to eat in, the difference in bread quality is overwhelming. The Wiener bread I bought was so delicious. It would be nice if we could choose one bread from the store for the Good Morning Set."

Good morning everyone! Went to Narutoya for breakfast, which was featured on the morning show! It's been a while! The breakfast used to be quite sweet, so as a Japanese person, I went for the Japanese set meal! It had salmon and rice mixed together! Delicious. I didn't think I could get this kind of meal at a bakery, haha. I was also thinking of taking home a wiener bread they sell, but I ended up eating it there! I was able to eat until I was full. Starting the day with a full stomach is the best way to go!

Well, well, actually it's my second breakfast of the day, haha. I won't go into details here. Anyway, good morning! I went to a bakery and ordered the classic Japanese breakfast set. I was with someone who got a fruit sandwich from the bakery section. It's nice that even if you don't see something you want in the cafe area, you can still get something from the bakery. And I just found out that you can get a refill of white rice with the Japanese breakfast set. That's a nice little bonus! It instantly boosts your satisfaction level because you can make tamago kake gohan (raw egg over rice)! Enjoying the simplicity of salmon, tofu, soy sauce, and nori with white rice, and then finishing with tamago kake gohan is just so satisfying and delicious! A satisfying morning! Thank you for the meal.

I went out to buy breakfast on a Sunday morning. It's a bakery called Narutoya that was born in Osaka. They have a wide variety of sandwiches, side dish breads, and sweet breads, all relatively reasonably priced. The double sandwich with egg salad and thick fried egg is delicious with its crispy toasted bread and luxurious double eggs! I also couldn't resist buying some sweet breads to snack on at home. It's a bakery that accompanies me every day. Thank you for the delicious meal.

Get off at Kintetsu Imazato Station and head west. I noticed a beautiful bakery and initially passed by, but then decided to go back and enter. It's a large bakery with a café attached. The first thing that caught my eye was the wide variety of bread. Since it was in the evening, the selection was a bit limited but still impressive. Among them, I noticed two types of curry bread. One was the "Vermont Curry Bread," a typical fried curry bread with a slightly spicy sauce and a hint of sweetness from the onions. It was simply delicious. The other was the "Rugby Curry Bread," which was larger than the usual curry bread and decorated like a rugby ball. Inside, there were chunks of fatty beef which added to its volume. The packaging was cute, especially with the Rugby World Cup theme. Both curry breads were delicious.

"On the 30th, I had breakfast at Naruto-ya. I ordered the morning set menu as well. It's great that you can add your own items to the morning menu based on your preferences or appetite, like a regular bakery where you can shop right next to it. The regular morning set menu includes a sweet corn soup that helps you relax in the morning. The pizza-style bread that I added for some originality was my favorite today. It wasn't too cheesy, and the bacon wrapped around it gave it a satisfying taste. I also bought a fruit sandwich as a snack to take home. I think it's a really accommodating place that can meet a wide range of preferences."

Went to Marunoya for breakfast but it wasn't open yet. Since the weather was nice, I waited outside like at a bakery. I ordered the "Good Morning Set" which was a great deal with a plate of breakfast items. The corn soup was comforting. The portion wasn't huge, so I also bought a sausage bread from the bread corner which was delicious and fresh. Eating bread in the morning makes me feel ready to take on the day. Thank you for the meal.

There is a hearty morning eat-in option available with plenty of volume, and you can also buy cakes.

Curry bread and coffee

"I visited for breakfast at '30.01', a stable Japanese set meal place. It had been a while since my last visit. I tried a bite of the omelette that my companion ordered, and it was quite different from the Japanese set meal I had. It was fresh and delicious. They were selling a bread called 'Tokyo Rugby Curry' which we bought and shared. The bread had curry roux inside, with beef tendons resembling a rugby ball. There was indeed only one 'rugby ball' in the bread. It had a delicious curry roux, though."

I found a flyer and decided to visit the Imazato store after a long time. They had a lot of bread collab with Marufuku Coffee Shop!! But many of them were already sold out!! Managed to get the coffee cream anpan for 130 yen that I was looking for! Also got the baked cannolo and the Halloween triplet pumpkin bread! The coffee cream anpan is a bread wrapped in coffee cream and whipped cream with mochi. It had a chocolate shaped like a coffee bean on top. It had a rich taste of coffee along with the cream and mochi, making it a luxurious and delicious bread! The triplet pumpkin bread was fluffy with plenty of cream inside, which was delicious! The baked cannolo wasn't as crispy as I expected, but it tasted like tiramisu and was delicious. The collaboration with Marufuku Coffee Shop is great with the coffee flavor. The bread is mostly priced below 100 yen, which is cheap and good. I will definitely go back to buy more.

Naruto-ya is a bakery that also has a café next to it. I was drawn in by the smell of bread and decided to have breakfast there. I chose the "Good Morning Set" which included bread, omelette, and corn soup. The overall taste was on the sweet side. Sometimes it's nice to treat yourself and be kind to yourself. The café is not very well-known as it looks like a regular bakery from the outside, so it was a nice and relaxing place to enjoy my meal.
