This vehicle brake device performs raising processing for raising, by a predetermined raising amount, the target hydraulic pressure of hydraulic fluid when the pressure of the hydraulic fluid starts increasing in order to suppress a delay in response to the increase in the pressure of hydraulic fluid during switching processing for gradually switching at least part of regenerative braking force to hydraulic braking force, and includes a judging portion which judges whether or not required braking force or deceleration is reduced during cooperative control; and a raising amount setting portion which during the raising processing, sets a second predetermined pressure as a raising amount if the judgement result of the judging portion is positive, the second predetermined pressure being smaller than a first predetermined pressure that is the raising amount when the determination result of the determination result is negative.
