Les Freres Moutaux

Les Freres Moutaux is a popular bakery in Iwakura, a quiet residential area of Kyoto.

Previously, they also had a very nice branch with a cafe on Aburakoji Dori that sold all kinds of tasty meals – but that branch has now GONE.

From white bread and baguettes to sweet buns, croissants and scones, there are many types of bread on sale.

And all of them are top notch when it comes to flavor, texture, and the heady, bready aroma of baked dough, so you might have some trouble choosing between them.

You should also watch out for the showcase of temptation which is filled with all kinds of colorful cakes and pastries. And answering the call of sweet-toothed fans from afar, baked sweets and cakes can also be ordered online.

Les Freres Moutaux is a two-minute walk from Kino Station on the Eizan Kurama Line. Here is a map showing it’s location.
