In September 2026, the gourmet website Tabelog released two separate editions of its ‘Hyakumeiten’ (Top 100) awards for confectionery shops.

The first announcement focused on the ‘Sweets Hyakumeiten 2026’, the seventh edition of these awards, which ranks dessert shops based on user ratings for categories such as cakes, chocolates, and pastries. Regional highlights included a strong presence in the WEST region, specifically Osaka, Kyoto, and Hyogo, while the TOKYO area saw high concentrations in Shibuya and Setagaya.

Following this, Tabelog announced the ‘Tabelog Wagashi/Kanmidokoro Hyakumeiten 2026’, marking the second time this specific award has been presented. This list focuses on traditional Japanese confectionery, including categories like wagashi, daifuku, and taiyaki. In this edition, the TOKYO region saw high concentrations in Chuo, Taito, and Minato wards, while the WEST region was dominated by Kyoto and Osaka.
