Chiikawa Bakery’s First Store in Osaka Confirmed!
Chiikawa Bakery first opened in Harajuku/Omotesando, Tokyo, in October 2024. Since its opening, it has become a landmark in Harajuku/Omotesando, attracting many visitors every day. The bread at Chiikawa Bakery is crafted under the guidance of Junichi Sawada, the owner-chef of the bakery and representative of HIJ Library LLC, who represented Japan in the Decorative Bread category at the “Coupe du Monde de la Boulangerie 2026,” the world’s top baking competition held at Europain in France in 2026.
This time, on Friday, June 26, 2026, “Chiikawa Bakery OSAKA” will open in Umeda, Osaka. To commemorate the first Osaka location, Osaka-exclusive items such as the “Chiikawa Takosen Burger,” T-shirts, and special gifts will be available. In addition, the “Chiikawa Bakery OSAKA POP UP SHOP” will also open for a limited time. (No advance reservation is required for the “Chiikawa Bakery OSAKA POP UP SHOP.”)
