If you want to taste a high quality Japanese patisserie without going to Japan, this is exactly what fits for you. Very high standing looking pastry, clean, extra clean, order, super order. Taste may be an issue, but you can try and make your choice. Well done !

Beautiful crafted sweets and cakes and ice creams. All so pretty they were almost too perfect to eat - but we did! Two sweet Japanese girls helped with the choice. Expensive, of course, but well worth a treat.

Visité la sucursal de Strand en el camino de regreso a Euston statio. ¡Las dos chicas que trabajaban allí eran geniales! Atentos, educados y profesionales y expertos en los productos que venden. Más tarde hablé con amigos y asociados japoneses, y ambos quedaron impresionados y sorprendidos de que esta tienda esté disponible en el Reino Unido, ya que es una marca dulce de lujo en Japón. Ah, y los dulces fueron bien recibidos en casa también.

他家的年轮抹茶的真的没有什么抹茶味,外层的糖霜也有点多此一举,整体蛋香味浓厚,蛋糕不知道是不是收到运输过程当中温变的影响,既不松软也不分层。反而他家米饼味道不错,据说传统口味的都不错,迎合欧洲人的就比较勉强。樱饼我觉得一般,总体来说比较偏甜。所有啫喱质地点心里面,我只觉得金鱼的颇具童趣,而草莓的味道就比较符合期待,其他的,就不怎么推荐了。

Pasticceria dai gusti molto particolare,dai colori caldi e dalla cortesia tipicamente delle donne giapponesi. Unica pecca solo due tavolini per prender un thè e assaggiare le loro specialità. Lo consiglio per chi vuole osare nel mangiare pasticcini al gusto di fagioli o al thè macha. Osate gente,osate....ne vale la pena.

This is a wonderful gem close to Piccadilly’s.

The white peach and mango jellies were delightful. The prices are high but it’s worth a visit for special occasions

This was my first visit to Minamoto Kitchoan. I enjoyed the atmosphere inside - I hadn't realised before the visit that its philosophy was the tea-ritual. We soon figured it out when we saw the teapots and bowls! The staff were lovely, polite, and Japanese. We had no idea which sweets/snacks to try so we went for the Winter Selection Box and the Green Tea Selection Box. We didn't try them until we got home. They were pretty expensive for what they were, but that wasn't a surprise.The sweets themselves were fine, but not amazing. I think we accidentally didn't pick up any mochi, which we were disappointed with, but we will try these next time. I thought the bean paste snacks were an interesting texture and flavour. I didn't really like the crimped cookies.

Si viene attratti dall'ordine tipico giapponese e dai dolci che sono presentati come se si fosse in gioielleria.I prezzi sono alti, ma si è a Londra...Per curiosità ho provato due dolci: il dorayaki con la marmella di fagioli rossi, tipica specialità, mentre l'altro al the verde.

I like this place and their products. However I've had a terrible experience when I left my bag on the bench for one minute, with my passport and valuables in it, and the next minute is was gone. I noticed 2 cameras that should have clear view of the bench, mentioned this to the staff, who asked the manager, but it transpired that all in-store cameras are fake. Thanks to this, there is no footage of this crime taking place.

I visit Miniamato Kitchoan every time I go to London. The items are beautifully packaged and taste wonderful. The flavours are different from typical British sweets, but I now prefer oribenishiki (chestnut in bean paste covered in a pancake) to any Western pudding or candy bar. They are the perfect, practical protein-rich pick-me-up snack to carry in a handbag and eat on the go; they are also a lovely dessert to serve with a leisurely hot drink.

These make perfect gifts or unique delicious treats for yourself if you want to spoil yourself a bit! The price is definitely in the (i want to spoil myself range) therefore a bit pricey. Really hoping to buy a gift set here, I wish the dates lasted longer (suggesting that most things have to be eaten very quickly for freshness) otherwise the green tea variations of mochis and cookies are my favourite. It's nice there is a loyalty card, and the fact that there are only a few stores around the world makes it a much more special place. Once again the price can easily add up here so beware of this

This little gem of a shop is a great place to explore swanky and tasty old-fashioned Japanese teatime treats with an elegant modern twist. Everybody is clued in on popular bits of Japanese cuisine like sushi or ramen or teppanyaki, etc. But the world of Japanese desserts and teatime sweets is still a bit of a mystery outside of Japan. Minamoto Kitchoan is THE place to explore the hidden world of Japanese goodies!Minamoto kitchoan serves and sells a lovely variety of 'wagashi' -- traditional Japanese dainties and teacakes and jellies and sweets. A couple of favourites, for starters: Castella Cake: Similar to pound cake; rich, though much lighter and less buttery than pound cake -- and with a springy texture. Like tempura, this Japanese treat is a product of some cultural exchange with the Portuguese in the 16th century. Sakuramochi: Sweet azuki bean paste coated in beautifully soft glossy mochi and elegantly wrapped in an edible young sakura cherry leaf.If you're walking down Piccadilly, stop in and check this place out. Pick out a piece of wagashi and enjoy it with a cup of green tea in-house, or take a box of Castella Cake home with you. Discover a new world or return to a familiar one. Everything is wrapped to perfection, too. Enjoy!
