Out of the Pickle Jar

A blog where I can embrace over-sharing the logistics behind small business, motherhood, and traveling with kids.

Kids Only Bakery in Tokyo

If you are looking for a core memory for your Tokyo trip, you have to visit Comme’N Kids. Located in the stunning Azabudai Hills mall, this bakery is strictly "No Adults Allowed." It’s a space designed entirely for children to practice independence, handle money, and pick out their own treats in a pint-sized shop.

We visited on the final day of our five-week Japan trip, and it was the perfect finale.

The Experience

When our preschooler's timeslot arrived, we gave him 1,000 yen and a mission: choose up to four pastries. The staff greeted him at the tiny entrance and led him inside while we waited behind the glass.

A few minutes later, he practically floated out of the store clutching his bread bags, looking so incredibly proud of his "adult" errand.

We headed to the mall’s atrium to enjoy his "bounty" (Great shot of our boba kids jogger set he's wearing!).

This was the perfect finale for our last full day in Tokyo after 5 weeks and such a special experience, I think I’m going to have to frame the receipt or something!

Why It’s Unique

The shop is a spin-off of the world-famous Comme’N Merengue by Mamoru Kaneko (a World Bread Cup champion). While the main bakery next door has long lines of adults, the "Kids" version is built to their scale, from the height of the counters to the simplified checkout process.

Logistics & Tips for Comme’N Kids

Location: Azabudai Hills, Same buildling as TeamLabs. See Google Maps location here
The Route: The mall is a maze. Find the Hermès store, then take the escalator right next to it down to the basement level (B1). Click here for a video walkthrough of the route

How to Secure a Slot

This is the most important part! (As of April 2025,) they operate on a physical sign-up sheet.

Arrive Early: We arrived at 10:17 AM (17 minutes after opening) and were already assigned a 12:35 PM slot.
Pro Tip: Aim to get there 15 minutes before they open at 10:00 AM to snag an earlier morning time.

About Kirstie

Hi! I’m Kirstie. I started A Jar of Pickles 10+ years ago, but if you follow me on IG Stories, you know the products are only half the story.

Between managing a business and the constant chaos of raising two tiny humans, my DMs are usually filled with requests for links, traveling recs, and both asking for and giving advice for raising kids.

IG Stories disappear after 24 hours, but my recs (and requests for them) don't, so I here's a space to keep it all in one place!
