Back in Nagasaki before the train to Shimabara and in need of breakfast we discovered this delightful bakery… thankfully they were open.

It’s called Bread A Esspresso and it is open Friday- Monday from 6:30-10:30am. The bread is delicious and you can taste the flavour. We shared a blueberry bun, walnut and chocolate. They were small – which was perfect. Additionally we each had a cappuccino. If you dislike chocolate on top come here as they don’t add it. We really enjoyed both the bread and coffee.

The place was really busy – people coming constantly. the menu is simple – and what is on display is on the menu.

In Japan if you eat in you pay a higher tax rate… and we were willing to do this. There was bench space for eating – and we were really pleased to not be drinking and eating from take-away cups.

It’s a true delight and we highly recommend if you are in Nagasaki.
