A cage of a thrust roller bearing includes: a pair of crank-shaped bent portions arranged in a circumferential direction of the cage; a pair of inner wall surfaces arranged in a radial direction of the cage; and a pocket for housing a roller defined by the pair of bent portions and the pair of inner wall surfaces and formed by punching the cage. Radially inner one of the inner wall surfaces is formed as a guiding surface for guiding a substantial roller PCD position of an end surface of the roller. Each of the pair of bent portions includes a first extended portion extending in one of cage thickness directions and a second extended portion extending in the other cage thickness direction. A roller retaining pawl for retaining the roller is provided at each of the first and second extended portions so as to protrude into the pockets.
