SAISON bakery&coffee
A few minutes' walk from Gotanda Station, this bakery and cafe opens early at 7 a.m., making it an easy stop for breakfast or takeout. The interior of exposed poured concrete gives it the feel of a cafe abroad, relaxed and stylish. The counter is lined with an unusually thick Basque cheesecake standing 45 to 50 millimeters tall (in the 700 yen range), croissants with beautifully defined layers and a crisp, crackly exterior, savory filled breads, and even fresh oysters. Visitors praise it as a place where you can enjoy both the bread and the full cafe menu.
