中村屋 ボンナ

Nakamuraya Bonna is a sweets and delicatessen counter located in the basement of the Shinjuku Nakamuraya Building at 3-26-13 Shinjuku, operated by Shinjuku Nakamuraya, a food company with roots dating back to 1901. The company began as a bakery in Hongo before relocating to Shinjuku, where it grew into a long-standing brand encompassing bread, Japanese sweets, Western pastries, curry and Chinese-style steamed buns. The Bonna counter serves as the direct retail outlet for this heritage, offering freshly prepared items made on-site by the company's pastry chefs and cooks. The counter is known for its fuwa-toro cream pan, a soft bread filled with velvety custard cream, alongside freshly fried curry bread filled with the company's signature Indian-style curry, a recipe with a century of history behind it. The selection also includes seasonal Japanese sweets such as ichigo daifuku, Western cakes and tarts, and prepared deli dishes including curries and side dishes designed to be taken home for dinner. The basement space is laid out as a shopping floor rather than a sit-down restaurant, with products displayed for takeaway purchase, though the adjoining Nakamuraya Building restaurants provide seating for those wishing to eat in. Bonna is open daily from 10:00 to 20:30, making it convenient for both daytime shoppers and evening commuters picking up dinner or dessert on their way home. Its location in the Shinjuku Nakamuraya Building places it within the Shinjuku Sanchome district, approximately a five-minute walk from Shinjuku Sanchome Station and within easy reach of JR Shinjuku Station's east exit. The cream pan and curry bread are produced throughout the day, but the freshest batches typically come out in the late morning and early afternoon, so visiting before 15:00 offers the best selection of warm items, with popular varieties selling out by early evening on weekends.
