No longer vegan - Edit
My husband and I went there today in hopes of some yummy vegan doughnuts but alas they have changed their recipe to keep up with competitors.

Amazing - Edit
We went around 10 AM on a weekday and the vegan doughnuts were plentiful. The available flavors were pineapple and coconut. I've had better vegan doughnuts but it is so rare to get yeast doughnuts instead of cake. The only downsides were that it was very hard to find and kind of expensive- about 1300 yen for four doughnuts.

Cons: expensive, hard to find

Vegan doughnuts, yes! - Edit
We went at 8pm on a Saturday evening and they had pineapple doughnuts that were clearly marked as vegan. The shop assistant spoke a little English and understood perfectly what we wanted.
Read moreThey are a bit expensive (¥350 each) but, to be fair, they are big doughnuts and the price isn't bad for Tokyo. Oh, yeah, and they're totally delicious.
Incidentally, the shop is just *inside* the station not outside as Google Maps suggests.
Pros: A bit expensive but big.
Cons: None

go early!! - Edit
We first tried to go at the end of the day and they were all out of vegan options. So the next morning we got there right when they opened and had first pick. We got 2 banana and 2 strawberry and they were sooo good. Really loved finding some solid vegan junk food to soothe my homesickness ;)

Yay - Edit
Finally doughnuts! I had the one with roasted green tea. The dough was perfect but the glaze was a little bit bitter.

Too sweet but nice staff - Edit
The person working seemed very nice, but the donut was too sweet for my tastes. I had the raspberry vegan donut and it was pretty good and unique with some tangyness but was way too sweet.
Read morePros: Nice staff, Unique donut flavor
Cons: Too sweet, Limited vegan variety

yum! - Edit
They usually only have 2 vegan options at a time. The flavours tend to alternate every week or so. When we went they had green tea and coffee hazelnut. I usually love green tea but I didn't so much like the green tea donut. The coffee hazelnut however was AMAZING! We went back twice :)
Read moreTip: Go earlier in the day as they are better when they're fresh
Pros: Delicious, Who doesn't love donuts
Cons: Only 2 flavours

Nice - Edit
2 vegan options when I went: chocolate cranberry and maple walnut. I bought the maple walnut one and loved it! Really nice doughnuts if you're craving something sweet in Tokyo!

Handy for vegan doughnut cravings - Edit
I first tried to go to the one in Kichijoji, but this turns out to be the main kitchen (though it also appears to sell doughnuts) and it's open between the odd hours of 8pm and 2am. I was too early.
Read moreI went to the outlet in Lumin Est, right outside Shinjuku Station instead, and got to try two: maple walnut, and cranberry. Great! The larger doughnuts are 350 JPY, and they have a huge array of other flavours (containing dairy, though not eggs), with smaller ones starting at less than 200 JPY.
Nothing special given that there are a wide array of traditional Japanese desserts which are vegan by default. But if you're craving a doughnut, or passing through Shinjuku station and don't have energy to figure out what else is vegan for a sugary snack, this is a good bet.

Tasty but limited options - Edit
This location is small and only had one option which was marked "soy, no egg". It was a pumpkin doughnut and very yummy. Similar in quality to others I've had. Maybe other locations will have a larger selection.

Delicious but wish it had more than one option - Edit
I don't know if it's the lack of doughnuts I have tried since being vegan so that I can't make a decent comparison, but I found these delicious. They always seem to have just one vegan option though, which is always the same, changing on the season it seems (but the two I tried were very similar. both cranberry I believe) and that's why I can't give the five stars rating.
Read moreThey don't have sitting area but you can go to the upper level (in Lumine east next to Starbucks) in a corridor, there's the own Starbucks sitting space and also another free sitting space for you to enjoy the doughnut while resting for a while (although it's usually crowded).
Pros: Fluffy delicious doughnut
Cons: Only one option

just one sorry option - Edit
I was excited to try the only vegan option the had, but I'm sad to report that the berry donut was absolutely boring. We paid about ¥320 for it and my friend and I got too bored to finish it. Save your money and spend it on mochi

Some vegan options - once you find it - Edit
This is a little doughnut place in Shinjuku station that offers one or two soy milk variety doughnuts.
Read moreIf you are having trouble finding it. Find the main Shinjuku station entrance and walk into the station from between the two glass pyramids. The booth is located diagonally to the right from this entrance near the east exit. There isn't an area to sit down sadly.
The doughnuts are lovely and great to snack on after months without shop bought sweets.
