About this place
Crisp and fragrant on the outside, soft and light within: the croissant at bricolage bread & co. Shibuya is praised for combining the aroma of butter with the flavour of wheat. It’s a good first choice if you want a croissant with more to it than richness alone.
For something sweet, try the croissant aux amandes, with its moist sweetness and toasted almond aroma. The same croissant dough takes on a different character here: one option is light, while the other is a more substantial sweet treat.
If you’re after more chew, look to the hard breads with nuts. Their well-baked dough has a fragrant crust, while walnuts add a crisp bite and dried fruit brings concentrated sweetness. The more you chew, the more the bread itself comes through. It’s a heartier choice than a croissant, for when you want something to sink your teeth into.
For a simple, comforting option, there’s bean bread: a soft, chewy dough filled with sweetly simmered beans. The seaweed-and-cheese bagel stands out for its seaweed aroma and savoury cheese; try it between sweeter breads for a change of flavour. From light croissants to breads made for slow chewing, with sweet and savoury choices in between, the range makes it easy to follow whatever you feel like eating that day.
The bakery is in Shibu Chika, directly connected to Shibuya Station, making it easy to stop by for takeaway. Coffee is also available, so you can pick up a drink with your bread and take a moment to pause.
