[2025 Urasoe Restaurant] Travel Guide for Hoppepan (Updated Apr)

Okinawa｜hoppepan In Okinawa's daily life, there are always small surprises that make people stop and take a look. In a corner of Urasoe City, there is a warm and healing bakery called "Hoppe Pan". The name of the shop comes from "ほっぺ" (cheek), which seems to imply that the bread here is so delicious that it makes your cheeks puff up unconsciously. As soon as you walk into the store, the aroma of bread makes you relax instantly. The atmosphere in the store is warm and rustic, and the shelves are filled with a variety of handmade breads, each of which is full of simple care and deliciousness. I particularly like their croissant series, which has distinct layers and a crispy texture. It is the crispiest croissant I have ever eaten! Take a bite, the creamy aroma fills the air, and the crispy texture makes you unable to stop. Moreover, the store is very considerate and provides heating service, so that you can enjoy the delicious taste of freshly baked food at any time. What’s even more outrageous is that this store is only open four days a week! To eat this delicacy, you really have to calculate the time accurately so that you can taste this limited happiness. It is worth mentioning that there is a private parking lot at the door, allowing you to park easily and enjoy this wonderful bread time without worries. ₊ ˚‧ ♡̷̷̷ ₊ ˚‧ ♡̷̷̷ ₊ ˚‧ ♡̷̷̷ ₊ ˚‧ ♡̷̷̷ ₊ ˚‧ ♡̷̷̷ ₊ ˚‧ ♡̷̷̷ ₊ @hoppe_pan Address: 2-10 Uchima, Urasoe City, Okinawa Prefecture Business hours: 10:00 - 19:00, every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday #Okinawa Travel #Okinawa Attractions #Okinawa Food #Okinawa Free Travel #Nanjo City #Hyakuname Beach #Okinawa Check-in #Must-visit Okinawa #Japan Travel #Japan Free Travel #Okinawa Secret Place #Curaçao Stargazing #Travel Recommendation #Store Sharing #Japanese Ceramics #Seaside Shop #Life Aesthetics #Okinawa Shopping #Kacey Food Travel Notebook

A store that only opens a few days?? 😨 Latest update: now open 4 days a week 😂 Initially, it was only open two days, but due to high demand, they gradually added more days. Online reviews mention long lines, but we were lucky and didn't have to wait in the afternoon. A whole row of beautiful and exquisite bread! ✨ You can pick your bread while moving towards the checkout line. The prices are reasonable, and there are many varieties. It was hard to choose... In the end, we bought 6-7 pieces of bread 🥖 and they all tasted great. (The store can heat the bread for you) Do you love buying bread?

This unique bakery is open exclusively on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. They use seasonal ingredients and craft their bread without additives, butter, or sugar, emphasizing low salt content. The focus is on creating soft textures rather than crispy ones. If you're visiting Okinawa for the weekend, this is a must-visit spot! The bread is displayed on the counter, ranging from savory to sweet options. Each loaf looks incredibly appetizing. Unable to read Japanese, I picked a few based on appearance—chocolate bread, croissants, mentaiko bread, and mini croissants. I couldn't wait and enjoyed them on the bench outside the shop. Every single one was delicious, and I almost wanted to devour the entire selection! No wonder this bakery, open only four days a week, is so popular! 📍Address: 2 Chome-10-10 Uchima, Urasoe, Okinawa 🕰️Opening Hours: Thursday to Sunday, 10:00 AM - 7:00 PM
