A genuine natural sourdough bakery opened by a baker who supplied Michelin three-star restaurants. Relocated to a new location in Kita-Ichinozawa in spring 2025. Gained a loyal following since the Esojima days and continues to draw queues after the move. Breads made with homemade natural yeast and carefully selected ingredients evoke the flavors of authentic French bakeries. 281 reviews on Tochigi Navi, among the top-ranked bakeries in Utsunomiya.

Reviewers say: 'The best bakery in Utsunomiya,' 'The mackerel sandwich is exquisite,' 'The natural yeast flavor is the real thing,' 'Worth lining up before opening.' 281 reviews on Tochigi Navi. 16K Instagram followers. Confirmed continued popularity after spring 2025 relocation via Goguynet Utsunomiya article.
