About this place
Lumeto brings together the distinct appeals of a boulangerie and a pâtisserie within a single showcase, offering everything from fragrant croissants and savory meal breads to fresh cakes and baked sweets. Shelves display laminated croissants prized for their crisp, buttery layers alongside baked curry bread with an aromatic crust packed with savory filling. A popular an-butter sandwich pairs slow-simmered tsubu-an (chunky sweet red bean paste) with salted butter, while substantial options like prosciutto with mozzarella or steamed chicken with carrot râpées make it an easy choice for a satisfying lunch.
Beyond table breads, the bakery maintains a wide variety of sweet buns and rustic crusty loaves. Rotations include bacon epi, an epi flavored with shiso and mentaiko butter, hearty pain de campagne showcasing stone-ground grain and textured mix-ins, and cinnamon rolls studded with orange and cranberry, providing a slightly different selection depending on the day of the week.
Those in search of a sweet treat will find plenty to consider in the chilled display case. The choux croquant offers a crisp exterior against smooth custard, alongside moist brown sugar roll cakes, creamy cheesecakes, crunchy croquant chocolat, and black tea scones, all crafted with care.
The shop operates exclusively for takeout with no dine-in seating, making it convenient for picking up home meals, afternoon snacks, or a bite during a neighborhood stroll. Aside from its regular closure on Mondays and Tuesdays, the shop stays open until 19:00 from Wednesday to Saturday and until 18:00 on Sundays, offering easy access to quality breads and pastries for the daily table.
