2 of these places are in Umeda and Kita
Brunch in Osaka is a riverside habit as much as a menu, built around the canals and converted warehouses of the centre. Northshore sits on the water in Nakanoshima and Kitahama and anchors the scene, with its weekend pancake service drawing the longest waits. The Umeda and Kita crowd splits between bills Umeda and THE CITY BAKERY Osaka Umeda, while West Wood Bakers covers the same all-day eggs and bread in Horie and Nishi-ku.
