🛍️ Karuizawa French Bakery

Since its opening in 1951, this long-established bakery has been beloved by the locals. Located on the "Old Karuizawa Ginza Street," a main road in Karuizawa, it is always crowded with residents from nearby villas and tourists. It gained fame because British singer John Lennon frequently shopped here during his stay in Karuizawa. Inheriting the spirit of the first owner, who believed in "making bread with the best flour in the clean water and fresh air of Karuizawa," the bakery still follows the original recipes and methods to produce delicious bread. The store offers signature French bread, English bread, square toast, and a wide variety of both traditional and classic breads that are simple yet never boring. While there are many classic breads available, the bakery actively introduces new products as well. There is a dining area where customers can enjoy freshly baked bread on-site, along with a selection of beverages such as coffee and tea.
