Great Japanese bakery. Be there early for fresh treats (sweet or savory) and don’t forget a loaf of bread!

This is the cutest little Japanese bakery! They have such adorable desserts, and lots of good flavors. We got the jumbo anpan, Hokkaido anpan, and ube mochi buns. They were all so good! And so affordable! The staff was so nice, and the inside is pretty cute, but very small.

I went here and had the most wonderful conversation with one of the cashiers. The pasteries were kept fresh, and the service was immaculate! Would highly recommend this bakery and their friendly staff!

Amazing! Everything we tried was excellent. I had a croissant donut with vanilla custard, we also tried a cheese bread roll with bacon, a chocolate mochi donut, a chocolate custard bear, a lemon muffin, etc. Everything was delicious and looked amazing as well. Prices were reasonable and service was friendly. 10/10 would recommend.

Kid-friendliness: Lots of cute and tasty treats perfect for kids.

Excellent baked goods and one of the best strawberry vendors in town- they bring in fresh strawberries from Japan, but the Amarin are $45 a box of 9 to 15 small strawberries.

This Japanese bakery from Hokkaido was only a 2 min drive from where I was staying and I definitely had to try it. We came around lunch time on a Sunday and tried the following:Pepperoni Foccacia - this tasted like a cold pizza, in a good way.Curry Pan - nice crisp on the outside, and nice bread texture with gooey curry inside. It was tasty with a variety of layers of taste/experience.Mentaiko (long baguette) - I was expecting more of a mentaiko flavor, the mentaiko was baked into the bread.Melonpan - this was good and what I expected from a melonpan.I don't know if it was the time of day we went, but all the pastries did not seem super fresh, as you would expect from a Japanese bakery. Despite it not being the freshest, the pastries were still tasty, but honestly I expected a little more.Oh we also ordered an iced americano and a cappuccino which hit the spot. Lastly, it's inside the McDonald's plaza, and there is outdoor seating only.

The baked goods are fresh and delicious. I was visiting back home and wanted to visit BRUG bakery. I ended up going twice within a few days. On my first visit, I really wanted an anpan and had to get the kuma choco custard as it’s so cute being in the shape of a bear. I saw the mochi donuts, too, but didn’t really need to get them as I already was treating myself to a bear-shaped baked good. I happened to be in the area in the coming days so went back to get a mochi donut. I got 2 mochi donuts as you can buy 2 for a lower price than buying 2 separately. I recommend warming the mochi donut up for a few seconds to bring back the chewiness of the mochi.

why are you open so late? You are a bakery.

Fantastic Japanese bakery with so many unique options. Some of our favorites were the in Portuguese sausage with egg, chocolate croissant, cheese mochi, Matcha donut, and pizza focaccia! So many options had a hard time choosing, you really can't go wrong with anything! Avg ~$3-4 each
