A New Treat Awaits in Harajuku!

On August 2, 2025, a new chapter begins in the heart of Harajuku with the opening of "Gelato and Espresso," a dedicated gelato shop from the renowned company, Hito to Hito. Best known for their bakery café, "Bread and Espresso," they aim to deliver refreshing delights during the hot summer months. This opening highlights the company's commitment to quality and creativity, continuing the legacy of the beloved “旬 喫茶パンエス” while embracing the challenge of offering exquisite gelato in a vibrant new space.

The shop will not only feature a diverse selection of gelato, with over 20 flavors ranging from fruity sensations that put the spotlight on fresh ingredients, to rich chocolate variants resembling decadent chocolate truffles, as well as playful tastes inspired by carrot cake. Each flavor promises a joyful taste experience and a visually appealing presentation, ensuring customers have fun choosing and tasting. Seasonal and event-themed limited flavors are also expected to appear, tantalizing customers with new options throughout the year.

As the name 'Espresso and Gelato' suggests, the shop will serve coffee made from their own roasted beans, just like at the original "Bread and Espresso" locations. This unique combination of aromatic coffee paired with sweet, creamy gelato creates an indulgent experience that is hard to find elsewhere.

For those looking for a playful atmosphere, the shop features a whimsical terrace filled with colorful nooks that are perfect for Instagram-worthy photos and making memories with friends. Customers can indulge in creating their own "Shake" with their gelato of choice and explore the fantastical “Cream Soda” with 11 alluring color variations. Each menu item is crafted to excite the senses and provide a delightful escape into the world of gelato.

Drawing inspiration from the vibrant kawaii culture that Harajuku is famous for, "Gelato and Espresso" aims to convey a world of cuteness and deliciousness through its colorful gelato offerings. This new establishment promises to be a must-visit for locals and tourists alike who seek a sweet, refreshing treat in the iconic Harajuku neighborhood.
