Custard Nakamura

A Slice of Tokyo in Bangkok

Custard Nakamura is more than just a bakery; it is a Sukhumvit institution. Tucked away in Soi 33/1, this cozy shop transports visitors straight to a neighborhood bakery in Tokyo. With its humble decor and shelves packed with an endless variety of sweet and savory goods, it captures the essence of Japanese 'shitamachi' (downtown) charm.

Culinary Craftsmanship

The bakery specializes in traditional Japanese-style breads and pastries. From the iconic Yakisoba Pan to fluffy melon pans and delicate fruit sandwiches, every item is crafted with precision. The signature custard pudding is a must-try—a masterclass in simplicity, offering a silky texture and a perfectly balanced caramel finish that has kept locals coming back for decades.

Why It’s a Must-Visit

What makes Custard Nakamura truly special is its consistency and affordability. It remains one of the few places in Bangkok where you can enjoy high-quality, authentic Japanese baked goods without the premium price tag. It is the perfect spot for a quick breakfast, a nostalgic afternoon snack, or to grab a box of treats to share with friends.

Insider Tip

Arrive early or mid-morning to catch the freshest batches of bread coming out of the oven. The shop can get quite busy during lunch hours and on weekends, so be prepared to navigate the narrow aisles with fellow fans of this beloved neighborhood gem.
