Why go
A case led by custard cream donuts
The custard cream donut is the item to reach for first at Boulangerie Queue, a small neighborhood bakery in Funabashi. It leads a compact case that turns over through the day, and it is the clearest read on what the shop does well.
Two other items round out the short list of signatures: a fried eggplant chicken miso pizza on the savory side and a chocolate coronet on the sweet side. Between them they cover the two directions the counter runs.
A counter built for takeaway
The format is a bread counter rather than a cafe. Guests come to the case, choose from what has been baked, and leave with the bag; the shop is built around takeaway rather than a seated visit.
That keeps the visit short and the selection tied to the day's bake. It reads as a bakery folded into a Funabashi routine rather than a destination in its own right.
How to order
Take the custard cream donut plus one savory item and the visit is complete. The chocolate coronet is the addition worth making if the order is skewing sweet, and the fried eggplant chicken miso pizza if it is not.
Frequently asked questions
What should I order at Boulangerie Queue?
Start with the custard cream donut, the item the case is built around. From there the two other signatures pull in opposite directions: a chocolate coronet if the order is running sweet, and a fried eggplant chicken miso pizza if it needs something savory. Two items make a complete visit.
Is Boulangerie Queue a sit-down bakery?
No. It works as a takeaway bread counter rather than a cafe, so guests choose from the case and leave with the bag. The selection is tied to the day's bake, which makes the shop easier to fold into a Funabashi routine than to treat as a destination sit-down.
