A popular store with constant lines
AMAM DACOTAN is so popular that it often has long lines, attracting fans from other prefectures and even overseas. Especially on weekends and holidays, it’s common to wait for a long time. However, recently the lines have become shorter, making it easier to visit and enjoy the delicious bread. Still, because it’s a popular store, items can sell out, so it’s best to come early.
Stylish interior and colorful array of bread
There is a limit of up to 7 people inside the shop, and if there is a line, you will be guided inside in order. Once inside, you’ll find a stylish and calm atmosphere. Colorful breads are lined up, making you feel excited just by looking at them. There is a wide variety of breads, so you won’t get bored.
Next to AMAM DACOTAN, there is a blue building with a dedicated eating area where you can also bring the bread you purchased. Enjoying freshly baked delicious bread is sure to be a luxurious moment!
On this day, I chose not to use the eat-in area and instead took the bread I bought home to enjoy in my room. AMAM DACOTAN’s bread is not only delicious but also visually appealing with its rich colors, making it a feast for the eyes. I had the most wonderful time and felt truly happy!
Also, AMAM DACOTAN is known as the bread shop with the most followers on Instagram in Japan. They attract many fans with the charm of their bread, accompanied by beautiful photos!
