Provided is a vehicle braking device that is able to minimize a driver's feeling of discomfort during braking. A hydraulic braking force generation device (A) is provided with: a determination unit (17h) that determines whether or not, while a target hydraulic pressure (target value) is being increased, the actual hydraulic pressure (actual value) exceeds an upper limit threshold (Pu) and passes through a dead zone; and a setting unit (17c) that sets, when the determination unit (17h) determines that the actual hydraulic pressure would pass through the dead zone, as an upper limit threshold (Pu) a second upper limit threshold which is set to be closer to the target hydraulic pressure than a first upper limit threshold, which is an upper limit threshold (Pu) set when the determination unitdetermines that the actual hydraulic pressure would not pass through the dead zone.
