About this place
Baked with restrained sweetness so that the aroma of butter comes straight through, the French toast announces itself the moment it reaches the table. Whipped cream and syrup are served on the side, allowing you to first taste the bread dough and rich butter on their own, then adjust the sweetness to your liking as you eat. It pairs naturally with the shop's dark, deeply flavored coffee or the signature Coffret Blend.
Tucked away in Bunkyo Ward's Hon-Komagome neighborhood, Petit Coffret is a kissaten that serves daily breads alongside an extensive range of light snacks and rice plates. In addition to quick bread items such as hot dogs and croissant sandwiches, the kitchen prepares satisfying comfort dishes like pilaf, Japanese curry, omurice, and taco rice. The drink selection is equally broad, encompassing café au lait, cocoa, and banana milk, as well as Japanese teas including sencha, hojicha, and kombucha.
Gentle classical music plays throughout the nostalgic, calming interior, which offers both counter seats and table seating. Operating from 15:00 on weekdays and from 17:00 in the late afternoon until 23:00 at night on Saturdays and Mondays, it serves as a peaceful retreat for late-afternoon tea or a quiet evening meal.
