WHY IT'S A MESHI MAP PICK
Locals keep coming back. That is the real proof.
地元の人が、通い続ける。それが何よりの証明。
Since 1952 this Gakugeidaigaku cake shop has been woven into the rhythm of neighbourhood life, and the sight of its yellow-green paper bags carried by locals of all ages has become as much a part of the area as the station itself.
1952年創業、70年以上にわたって学芸大学に根付く洋菓子店の老舗。
The charming retro packaging was designed by a French literature scholar, encasing beloved items like the rare cheesecake and mosaic cake, each priced at around 400 to 600 yen.
フランス文学者がデザインしたレトロなパッケージが名物で、黄緑の紙袋を手にした人々が駅周辺を行き交う光景はもはや地元の日常風景だ。
Named to the Tabelog Sweets Top 100 in 2023, the shop still sells out its most popular cakes well before closing on weekends — seven decades of local love has only deepened.
レアチーズケーキやモザイクケーキが1個400〜600円ほどで楽しめ、食べログスイーツ百名店2023選出の実力を支える週末の行列は今も絶えない。
