Boulangerie Le Ciel, Sakaisuji Hommachi | Osaka, Japan

Boulangerie Le Ciel left me speechless.

I’ve eaten some absolutely delicious bread in Osaka, but nothing could prepare me for the bread at Le Ciel. This bakery is next level, and I’d be lying if I said I didn't think about this bakery at least 3 times week. The bread here is freshly baked in store and is crunchy and flakey when it needs to be, and soft and fluffy when it should be. The flavours were exceptional, and fillings generous.

The bakery is only small, with space for only a few people to enter the store at any one time, but the bread selection is certainly not lacking. The store is takeout only and no drinks are available, so I suggest visiting in the morning soon after opening and grabbing breakfast to eat at your accommodation or in a nearby park.


Boulangerie Le Ciel is located in a mostly residential area of Osaka between Nagahoribashi station and Sakaisuji Hommachi station, just a few blocks from the busy Sakaisuji which runs parallel to Midosuji.


If you‘re a bread lover like me, I highly recommend a visit to this bakery. Boulangerie Le Ciel is currently my number one bakery in Japan (yes, my most favourite bakery in the whole country), and I can’t recommend it enough. Just be sure to leave me some bread please!



Suggested access: Nagahoribashi station, Sakaisuji Hommachi station.

I love finding new breads in any country, but the bread here looks fantastic. The Matcha and chocolate one would be delicious.

I had sort of forgotten just how amazing bread can be in Osaka! But saying Boulangerie Le Ciel is your favourite in the whole of Japan!? That is high praise! Now I want to try everything! The Fig and cheese bun, and the chocolate orange pain aux choc sound soooo good!
