ベーカリーレストランサンマルク 池袋東武店

Bakery Restaurant Saint Marc is a casual Western-dining chain run by Saint Marc Holdings, and the Ikebukuro Tobu branch occupies the 11th floor of Tobu Department Store, directly linked to Ikebukuro Station. Its signature is hot, freshly baked bread brought straight from the in-store oven and served with an all-you-can-eat bread option that pairs with the rest of the menu. The kitchen turns out hamburger steak with demiglace sauce, sole meuniere with lobster sauce, beef fillet in red wine and seasonal gratins, alongside hand-made desserts, a dedicated children's menu and a range of takeaway breads. The 64-seat restaurant is fully non-smoking, accepts major cards and electronic money, and is wheelchair- and baby-stroller-accessible; opening hours run 11am to 10pm daily with last orders at 9pm, following the department store's calendar. Lunch is the most popular slot, with premium and royal lunch sets that include the unlimited bread, while a "pan dip set" lets diners choose from whipped butter, red-wine salt, lemon-basil oil, strawberry jam and almond cream to pair with the loaves. Average spend lands around 1,500 to 2,500 yen, making it a comfortable mid-range choice for families, couples and shoppers needing a rest. Warm bread, honest cooking and a relaxed department-store setting make Saint Marc a dependable stop on any Ikebukuro outing. Pull up a chair, tear into a just-baked roll and let the aroma do the talking - it is a simple pleasure done very well.
