Rue Brazil ★ 4.4

otemachi · 5-6-11 Otemachi, Naka-ku, Hiroshima

Hours: Mon-Fri 07:00-19:00; Sat-Sun and holidays 07:00-18:00

Rue Brazil opens at 07:00 in Hiroshima with the morning set the city is credited with inventing: bread, a boiled egg, salad and a cup of coffee.

Tip: Morning sets stop at 10:30, after which the room switches to sandwiches, curry rice and buttered toast.

Hiroshima Andersen ★ 4.4

hondori · 7-1 Hondori, Naka-ku, Hiroshima

Hours: Daily 10:00-19:30 bakery market; closing days announced on the shop's own channels

Hiroshima Andersen runs a bakery market and cafe inside a converted Hondori bank, which makes it the easiest bread-led brunch in the whole city centre.

Tip: The bakery market opens at 10:00; the upstairs restaurant keeps separate hours and posts closures on its own channels.

Kissa Saeki ★ 4.3

kamiyacho · 1-4-25 Kamiyacho, Naka-ku, Hiroshima

Hours: Mon-Fri 10:00-18:00; Sat-Sun and holidays 10:00-17:00

Kissa Saeki serves an organic morning in central Hiroshima, and its vegan salad set appears for exactly one hour before the lunch menu replaces it.

Tip: Weekend service ends at 17:00 with last orders at 16:30, so the morning window is genuinely the best of it.

WILDMAN BAGEL ★ 4.3

nakajima-cho · 9-29 Nakajima-cho, Naka-ku, Hiroshima

Hours: Wed-Fri 8:00-18:00; Sat-Sun 9:00-18:00; closed Mon-Tue; closes when sold out

WILDMAN BAGEL opens at 08:00 midweek near Peace Memorial Park, boiling and baking about 20 kinds of levain bagel that stand in for a plated breakfast.

Tip: Weekend opening moves to 09:00 and the racks can empty well before the posted 18:00 close, so come early and eat on the park benches over the river.

LUCKY BAKERY ★ 4.2

otemachi · 5-25 Motomachi, Naka-ku, Hiroshima

Hours: Daily 9:30-20:00

LUCKY BAKERY opens at 09:30 every day inside Gate Park, where Hiroshima-wheat loaves, rice-flour breads and vegan rolls assemble into an easy picnic brunch.

Tip: It runs every day of the year, covering Monday and Tuesday mornings when WILDMAN BAGEL is shut; the rice-flour breads sell through by evening.

MoreThan Hiroshima ★ 4.1

otemachi · 3-1-1 Otemachi, Naka-ku, Hiroshima

Hours: Daily 07:00-10:00, 11:00-15:00, 15:00-17:00, 17:00-23:00

MoreThan opens at 07:00 on the ground floor of The Knot in Hiroshima, running breakfast, lunch, an afternoon cafe and dinner as four separate services.

Tip: Last entry for the morning service is 09:30, after which the kitchen changes over to the lunch menu at 11:00.
