Shinjuku City, Tokyo, Japan｜Le Bretagne Bar a Cidre

Recommended by my team leader, who had been living in France for years. I really enjoyed the food, the crepe and the cidre! And the French (?) staff is so sweet, I cannot understand Japanese well and he explained all the stuff in English for me, which I really appreciate. Have added to my top list in Tokyo!

Delicious food from Bretagne, beautiful restaurant, service of restaurant was patchy- good by some and a bit less by others, but overall we were quite satisfied and will definitely come back several times. We went to the restaurant and the café/bar (with lovely service) on different dates; and also got take away (tarte au sarrasin with bacon, zucchini and red pepper which was like quiche and kouign-amman with raisins which tasted like a more buttery pain aux raisins). Everything was excellent. We will try next their creperie which is a few streets away, and next to the deli (also the same company) where we bought the cider and the buckwheat crepe and gallette which we brought home.

Gorgeous representative of the balance between French and Japanese cuisines. Chef Marc and staff work their magic with food, wine and cidre in a charming hidden alleyway of Kagurazaka.
