I wanted to try this bakery since it got great reviews. There's other locations in Manhattan but I went to the one on Bushwick. There is a lot of options to choose from in this bakery. Sweet and savory. From noodles to ongiris to dessert to cookies this place is amazing. I can't imagine you couldn't find something in here to eat. I got a beef curry bun, beef yakiniku roll, Kinpira (burdock root), sesame tuile cookie and a tiramisu coffee roll. Everything looked fresh and everything did taste good. The sesame cookie was delicious. I would definitely go back again if I'm in the area or try the other location in Manhattan. read more

I'm a longtime fan of the Tribeca location of Takahachi and it's nice that they opened one up in Brooklyn. Needed a treat after a spicy dinner nearby and this did the trick. Ube soft serve with thin crispy almond cookie topping was fantastic. Also grabbed some cookies to consume the next day (Miso almond cookie and diamond butter cookie). The diamond butter cookie was the better of the two, but neither were super memorable so I'd try something else next time. Get that soft serve!! read more

I think this place just opened up in the Bushwick area. Has a lot of classic Japanese snacks and quick bites. I bought bread and it is great. They have some nice Japanese music playing. Servers are nice. read more

Dropped by after a performance at the nearby Red Pavilion and was really impressed by this charming little Japanese bakery! They offer so many delicious treats here, from a selection of breads and pastries (come earlier in the day for best selection), packaged baked goods like cookies, to chilled sandwiches, bowls, salads, drinks and sides, and warm bentos, sandwiches and miso soup. There's a freezer with some frozen items that can be taken to go or heated in the microwave. They also offer hot/cold coffee and tea drinks, individual dessert servings (cake slices, mont blancs, daifuku, etc), and last but not least a rotating menu of Asian soft serve flavors. The flavors of the day were matcha and black sesame, two of my faves so of course I had to get some--it was yummy! Both flavors were pronounced and the texture was pretty good. For food I tried the teriyaki sandwich $6.50 which was served warm and came with grilled zucchini. Tasty! The ham+egg salad sandwich $7.00 really hit the spot too, the egg salad was simple and perfect. It came with ham, lettuce, cucumber and tomato. Both were whole sandwiches cut into two halves and served on Japanese-style white bread--and very reasonably priced! I can't see how anyone living nearby wouldn't come here all the time. The food is so tasty and affordable! There are a few standing tables were customers can stand to eat their food, though it looked like a lot of customers opted to take away. I didn't have much interaction with staff though they were overall cordial and also informed everyone still in the bakery when it was about 10 min to closing. One bathroom available for customers and you need to punch in a code from the staff. read more

I got a chance to revisit Takahachi Bakery this past weekend and was wow'd yet again. I got an iced coffee as well as an onion egg pastry. I love that they have a microwave there so you can heat up any of their delicious eats. The pastry and the coffee were just perfect for a quick pick-me-up. I spied some delicious looking carbonara pasta and will definitely be getting it the next time! I also want to get their beef buns as well, which look scrumptious. read more

What a cute spot! They had multiple food options from hot to cold food. They also had a microwave nearby if you wanted to heat up your food which was a plus! I grabbed a coffee and a pastry. Both were great! read more

Stopped in to see their offerings for small takeout options. Ultimately got a bunch of pastries (which were so tasty), as well as two dinner meals. Got the spring rolls, which came with a delicious dipping sauce. Also got one of their spicy miso ramens, which was surprisingly flavorful. I thought the ramen itself was a little thin texture-wise but the seasoning was really delightful. Most importantly, everything was so cheap. The shop itself is really adorable and definitely worth exploring! read more

I stopped by because some strangers at a nearby vintage store suggested it. The Ube Soft Serve, ordered with a cookie topping, was really creamy. The flavor was rich, and I can still taste it in my mouth when I think about it. The cookie was crunchy and good, but I wouldn't say that it stood out to me as much as the soft serve. Since there wasn't a line, service was quick. Unlike a lot of bakeries, this bakery has tables for you to stay and eat your food. Around dinnertime on a Saturday evening, it wasn't crowded and was quiet. There's both baked goods and ready, prepped food. read more

Came here with the intention of catching up with a friend for an hour or more. Didn't end up sticking around because all of the high top tables had no chairs. This likely is an intentional choice by the bakery in order to not encourage people to linger, however, the flipside of that is that it creates an unwelcoming ambience. read more

I walked in here today to check it out and was hoping it would be great. Unfortunately a mouse ran through it while I was there in daylight hours and I had to leave without getting anything. read more

TLDR: great ice cream and awesome staff I dropped by to look around the spot after dinner. Most of the baked goods were sold out when I arrived, which I think is a great sign for a bakery. I chatted with the staff for a few minutes about the popular items of the bakery and was about to walk out when I spotted the soft serve menu. Matcha and soy sauce ice cream. The 3 staff members were adamant about how great the soy sauce was and gave me a heaping spoonful as a sample. It was delicious - probably one of my favorite flavors this year. Matcha is a constant flavor but the second rotates between soy sauce, yuzu, ube, and others. I'll definitely come back for the soft serve and to try the baked goods earlier in the day. Thanks to the staff for making it great! read more

So happy to have a Takahachi location in Bushwick. I'm familiar with the store from the Tribeca location. This visit I had the beef curry filled pastry and the katsu sando. Both were excellent. I also love the unique danishes and breakfast pastries. I'll definitely be back to try the matcha soft serve too. Welcome to Bushwick, Takahachi! Also appreciate the customer restroom and cold water especially on a hot day. read more

Very solid neighborhood bakery with tasty sandwiches and sweet and savory bakery items. The soft serve is very good, especially the black sesame, ube and Okinawa lemon. Divine! The only annoying thing is that they coil the ice cream in a certain way so that what you see isn't what you get. There is usually a gaping hole once you eat the top peak of the ice cream. But that's okay, it is not something you want a huge serving of anyway. The sushi is not the best. The rolls are very tiny and overpriced. There is no date on the package and it does not taste fresh. But they have plenty of other goodies and it is a nice alternative to the many taco trucks nearby. The prices for some of the prepared foods tend to be much higher than the typical Japanese markets around town, but the bakery items are priced well. read more

Takahachi is such a great addition to the area! I usually come to the area every Friday and every Friday I make sure to get a beef curry bun. The bun itself is so soft and pairs so well with the beef curry, it's airy and just melts in your mouth. I also enjoy their rotating soft serve (from what I've seen it rotates between combinations of miso, matcha, ube, yuzu), shortbread cookies, karaage, and many of their other pastries. The staff is super nice and the prices are great. I look forward to stopping in each week! read more

Amazing place for Japanese baked goods and snacks. I haven't tried everything yet but I intend to. There's a ton of assorted teas and other beverages. And the best melonpan outside of Japan. read more

Had my eye on this place ever since coming back from Japan and having suffering from severe withdrawals. As soon as you walk in, you are immediately presented with a case full of freshly baked pastries and the counter. The workers were very nice and welcoming. I picked out 2 half sandwiches from the fridge - egg salad and fried shrimp curry sauce. The egg salad was sooooooo good. Very creamy and had a good ratio of bread to egg salad. The curry sauce on the shrimp sandwich was yummy too. It was crunchy because of the veggies and tempura but chewy because of the soft bread. I'd have to go back to try their pastries and see if they sell hot food plates of chicken and rice with their curry sauce! read more

Great little Japanese bakery with a hot bar and a sushi fridge. Prices are ok and you can try different specialities. I had the beef potato croquette it was interesting read more

Love this new location! It's located conveniently near the Jefferson L stop and a great addition to the area. Everything is well spaced out by station (baked goods, cold sandwiches/food, hot foods, etc.) and there's lots of space to quickly eat. Perfect place for grab and go type food, which is what I feel most cafes need more of. Amazing variety! I want to try everything here. I ended up with a half egg salad sandwich (love that they offer halves here), miso soup, iced honey yuzu tea, and some free bread the miso soup came with. All great and fresh. Looking forward to coming back and trying more of their pastries and hot food! read more

I love this place. The quality of the food is similar to the bakeries in Japan. I would love to try all their breads. They have good variety and the quality is top notch. I tried these items: - Hot dog bun - Okonomiyaki tuna bun - Beef curry bun - Beef croquette - Spicy Chicken All of them get a 5/5. My favorite is the beef croquette because it comes with a Worcestershire sauce and the meat/potato ratio is great. But all of them would satiate me as a snack or small meal. Got to be back to try the rest of menu. Hope they open a bakery close to me. cheers read more

Would highly recommend this spot for a quick bite especially in the morning before work. Everything is reasonably priced and convenient as it's mostly self service. The staff are friendly and the place is clean and great ambiance. The pastries were flavorful, the chicken was moist but could use a little more seasoning. read more

medium-sized Japanese bakery located on Wyckoff Avenue in Bushwick. superclean space, very brightly lit, and modern interior. stopped at Takahachi several times--the bakery makes a variety of savory breads, sweet pastries, bentos, sandwiches, and more on premises. they serves a menu of coffee drinks as well. definitely try the beef curry bread--a soft melt-in-your-mouth bread filled with savory curry; also try the cream puff bread which has the right balance of sweet cream filling in a soft delicate bread/pastry; and the shrimp curry sauce sandwich is very good--chunks of shrimp in sauce on Japanese milk bread, too. love the fact that they sell half-sandwich portions when you want a sando but don't want something too heavy. the bakery is very casual and has several tables if you want to stay and eat. service is quick and friendly. read more

Popped in for a post dinner pastry. We shared a chocolate chip cookie. Lots of interesting options available even late in the night. Great spot for some quick bites. read more

Wonderful vibe! Music was on point. The savory corn bun and red bean bun were so delicious. We got it warmed up by the cashier and it was perfect! Such a nice atmosphere with friendly and welcoming staff. There's a great variety of food, from gyoza and sushi to cakes and all sorts of buns. I will be back whenever I visit Brooklyn! read more

They didn't have much matcha products compared to the one on Murray st. It looked more like a Chinese bakery now. Got the cherry blossom roll cake, which didn't really taste like anything. Definitely can skip it. The black sesame pudding was not bad. Had rich black sesame flavor and not overly sweet. I'd grab that again if in the neighborhood. read more

A cute little Japanese bakery and cafe in the neighborhood! We sampled a few of their sweet and savory pastries and they were all spot on. The chocolate covered pastry with strawberry filling was fluffy and chewy with a croissant-like texture. The fruit danish was crusty in the best way. Fruits expanded the cooling sweetness in the mouth. The sausage savory pastry was light with just the right amount of umami. Would come back to try their coffees and soups and sandwiches and other items. Service was fast and spot on. Just wish they had a few more chairs for folks like us to sit around! read more

A friend of mine actually recommended me this place as I was in the area. This is more for their hot foods. AMAZING hot sandwiches for a bargain. My favorite being the fish sandwich. Quality bread with perfect textures and great flavor. Very friendly service as well. Will definitely be returning read more
