The rebake booth: rescued bread
Alongside the bakery stands, there will be a booth run with rebake, an online platform that sells bread bakeries couldn’t sell on the day. At the market, the booth offers unsold bread from bakeries all over Japan.
It’s a chance to try bread from shops that aren’t at the market in person, and the organizer frames it as a way to cut food waste and support bakeries at the same time.
Why the mall runs this market
Since 2024, Tachikawa Takashimaya S.C. has offered bakeries a place to sell inside the building free of charge, as a way to support small food businesses through bread. According to the organizer, the range of shops has grown with each round, and the market now draws a large crowd on event days.
Tips before you go

- Pick the right day. éna pain is there on Sunday only. The full lineup for each day is on the official event page.
- Payment isn’t listed. The announcement doesn’t say which payment methods the stands accept, so check with the venue if that matters to you. If you’re still choosing a card for everyday shopping, our guide to credit cards you can get in Japan as a foreigner walks through the options.
