Delifrance

Steps from the ticket gates of Takadanobaba Station, Delifrance occupies the 1F of the BIGBOX retail complex, offering a practical pit stop for daily commuters and students. Opening at 7:00, it provides a dependable station-side option whenever you need a quick, no-fuss breakfast.

During morning hours, the bakery runs set menus centered around choices such as toast, croque-monsieur, and Danish wiener rolls. Pairing buttered toast with coffee alongside a boiled egg or yogurt provides an unhurried, balanced start to the day.

The display cases hold a broad selection of savoury and sweet bakes throughout the day. A substantial melonpan topped with thick cookie dough and spiced curry buns are reliable staples. For heartier meals, the kitchen turns out savoury choices like a smoked bacon and tomato panini, a croissant filled with French Camembert and prosciutto, and coarse-ground German franks.

Bright, glass-fronted counter seating makes solo lunches and brief waits between appointments effortless. With free Wi-Fi and multiple cashless payment options supported, it works just as well for settling in over a café au lait or hot tea as it does for grabbing bread on the run.
