Top 50 Gluten-Free Spots Across Kyoto City

Marcus S

Wow wow wow. Amazing. A must visit. Came with our friends who are non GF and they loved the normal offering. The GF option of rice noodles was so delicious. Very attentive service. Thank you.

Mel Griffin

Amazing. We ordered two savory and two sweet crepes and their matcha lattes. Everything was delicious and the staff is so friendly. The place is small so go early for seats.

AmyAnn Curran

Delicious and plenty of gluten free options

Anne Namuth

The whole place is gluten free. Between 3 and 5 pm they only serve dessert and drinks. The parfait is phenomenal.

Lara Acucella

Great gluten-free ramen and vegan and gluten-free gyoza. They saved my dinner, and it was a great rescue 😋😋😋 They don't guarantee contamination since they don't have separate kitchens, but they proved to be attentive and prepared. I highly recommend it 😊

Super authentic soba noodle experience. The noodles are all buckwheat only. Offers a GF dipping sauce on request

Katie Graham

Delicious pork kaatsu and Japanese fried chicken (and French fries). Non-GF family members were impressed with quality and authenticity. Hope to eat here again while we are in Kyoto!

Helene Simos

The food was so delicious and filling and the staff were so friendly. Amazing options for GF (about 90% of the menu is gluten free) and also for those who are vego. We had a great meal here!

Carlotta Stendardo

Really very good pizza: the tomato has an incredible taste! They have gluten free options so a plus

Alex Durso

Love this coffee shop. The Hojicha tea lattes are excellent. They also have a gluten free lemon cake that was perfect and not too sweet.

Mel Griffin

Really delicious ramen! And there’s a vending machine out front for gf vegan desserts!

We chose this bar because we were visiting the temple area in Kyoto, and we were looking for a gluten-free place, and we had a great time, the choice on the menu is very limited, two sandwiches (with very good bread) and 4-5 desserts, then they only have coffee to drink or a few other things (no soft drinks). It is a very elegant place, you can see the artistic imprint of the owner. The staff is very kind and also spoke very good English. Prices a little high but everything is quality and a zen environment. Ah from the back you can see the pagoda directly!

My favorite restaurant my whole trip to Japan. So accommodating. The freshest sushi. Family owned restaurant

Emma Lamomd

Loved this place!! Everything is gluten free (even the macaroni) however the okonomiyaki was certainly the highlight. It was great to not have to worry about cross contamination - cannot recommend it enough

Filippo Montalti

Great gluten-free service, tiny restaurant (5 people max seated), they only have chicken dishes and burgers, but they are delicious. The bathroom has redefined my concept of small space :) but it is very cute. Super friendly staff as always and very reasonable prices.

Lucas K

The açaí bowl was very good; however, we found the service disinterested and the atmosphere lacking. If you’re in the area and need a gluten-free bite, it’s worth a stop, but I wouldn’t recommend going out of your way to visit this location.

Gema Garcia

Spectacular ramen with gluten free option!!

Liliane Lapointe

Very good gluten free crepes ! Had the ham with onions : so yummy!

Blake Hedrick

All gluten free! Very good.

Corinna Finney

Very tasty food with gluten free options. The service is slower than the typical ramen-style restaurants where they get you in and out quickly but that didn't bother us.

Michael Cassimaty

Intimate dining with delicious food! The Green Curry and french fries went together great. Recommend it as a coeliac!

Jørgen Lobben

Come here! Second year in a row we come to this ramen place, and we love it! Great gluten-free ramen and the man running the shop is an amazing guy❤️ we are definitely coming again next time we are in Kyoto or even Osaka😊 Thank you

Sára Hájková

The best sushi in Arashiyama, they also have gluten-free soy sauce. The staff was very helpful❤️🥰

Emily Ko

Great quality dessert. I am gluten free and could order a dessert. However, many of the options include almond flour. If you have a nut allergy, please be careful.

Tina Chu

The best vegan and gluten free desserts I’ve ever tried (and I’m from LA where we’re spoiled with allergen friendly options)! The hojicha cake was my favorite; the matcha cake and ice cream sandwich were fantastic as well. The soy milk tea lattes were a delightful pairing.

Benjamin Cawdery

A great place for gluten free crepes. Incredibly tasty food, with great presentation. The staff are so friendly! It’s a very small and cozy place. It’s cash only so bring cash!

Soba (soba) & udon (udon) shop information Juwari Soba Specialty Store 10 Soba Kyoto Miyukicho Branch (341-7 Daimonji-cho, Miyukicho-dori Oikeshita-ru, Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto City) I visited with my wife for lunch on Wednesday, April 30, 2025🥢 This is a soba restaurant based on the concept of 100% soba noodles that can be eaten for just one coin.We want you to enjoy delicious 100% soba noodles made with domestic buckwheat flour.The tempura is also made with gluten-free buckwheat flour instead of wheat flour. Today I ordered the new style cold mixed soba Genovese (990 yen), maitake tempura, and red ginger onion kakiage 😀 My wife ordered zaru soba (500 yen), maitake mushroom tempura, and chikuwa tempura 😉 However, we like 100% soba and have eaten 100% soba from various places, but the flavor and texture of 100% soba did not feel like 100% soba. Also, the tempura and kakiage were not good enough🥴 The new style cold mixed soba Genovese was delicious, but that's about it😡 There was sobayu too••••••••••••••🤤 But at this price, it can't be helped. Thank you for the meal🙏

Ziad Gellad

Beautifully crafted meal by truly beautiful people. Memorable family dinner - and they were able to make it entirely gluten free. 🙏

If you want to drink matcha latte in Kyoto, this is the place♡! Enjoy authentic coffee made by baristas Here Kyoto's second store opens in Kiyomizu-dera Temple. [here Kyoto Kiyomizu] ︎︎︎︎︎︎☑︎ Matcha omelet 700yen Gluten Free Omelette Matcha ︎︎︎︎︎︎☑︎ Matcha caramel affogato latte 850yen Matcha Caramel Affogato Latte Filled with matcha sauce I went to Kyoto because I wanted to drink a strong matcha latte ♡ Astringency of matcha × bitterness of espresso × Saltiness of caramel sauce x sweetness of milk The latte that spread in my mouth was so delicious ❤︎ ⸝⸝ A chewy and fluffy omelet with a buttery flavor. Matcha cream and caramelized walnuts It's included and it's also delicious ♩ There are seats in the narrow space outside the store. It's surprisingly hard to notice, so it's a hidden gem! !

Damian Ruchti

very good gluten free food! almost everything possible without gluten.

Seth M

Fantastic service and a great setting. Definitely worth the price tag. I also have a gluten intolerance and the restaurant was very accommodating

pietro zani

the place is 100% gluten free and it's really good. I advise you to take the mochi and the cakes! amazing!

Lara Acucella

Small place very close to Kinkaku-ji, very kind and smiling! Excellent okonomiyaki and Japanese curry, both available in gluten free version (not guaranteed non-contamination like in many places). My non-celiac husband really appreciated the fried noodles. Good quality/price ratio. Recommended!!!

Jason Keller

This place is great! Gluten free is actually gluten free they take lots of care.

Razan K

Super authentic and adorable place. A hidden gem. The gluten free noodles are also 🔥 rich and flavourful broth. Creme caramel dessert was a nostalgic touch and everything is made with love

Pedro Madrid

The best grilled kobe and wagyu meat, spectacular! I went twice and it was quite an experience. Go with gluten-free soy as they don't have it

Emma Mc

Very authentic experience. Only one man running the whole restaurant, from catching the fish in the fish tank to cleaning tables, taking orders/payments and cooking. He used a translator device with every customer to explain how to eat the noodles. The soba noodles were 100% buckwheat, so gluten-free, as was the broth. He had an excellent understanding of gluten-free. The food was exceptional would recommend making a reservation, lots of people were turned away as it was full. Only 4 tables thar seat 2 people in the small restaurant.

sad( ; ; ). The sponge is like hard rubber and is dry and hard to chew. Fresh cream makes me feel sick after I put it in my stomach. It's gluten free, isn't it? One cake cost nearly 1000 yen. We sell frozen cakes. The family only ate one bite. The staff worked hard. This is an oversight on the part of the owner. Aren't you ashamed of selling something like this? Do you think these are delicious to eat? The good thing is that the staff was polite and pleasant. Ingredients were also clearly labeled. Never Again

Yasmine Soiffer

Good, coffee, matcha latte, all so good! Gluten free Chou crème, profiterole, biscotti, tiramisu, all delicious. Only 4 seats inside and a couple benches outside.

Patricia Bonet

Very good food, quiet and comfortable place. There are vegan and vegetarian options, but also a meat option and a fish option. Gluten-free food also specified on the menu. They have vegetable drinks for coffee. Highly recommended.

Ben Barber

A small, peaceful cafe on a quiet street. Small food menu with some gluten free + vegan options. Owner was very friendly, thank you for the great coffee + cake.

Charles Silva

Adrián G

A very relaxing place with several gluten free options ideal for people with celiac disease If you are celiac you will enjoy it, especially the chocolate cake seemed spectacular, very tasty. They only accept cash payments. They speak English, at least the basics to order.

Colleen C

Gluten free puff pastry and ice cream! It is amazing. Celiac safe and SO GOOD!

mike

A cute little vegan cafe that has gluten free options as-well. The menu is small but it is all delicious.

Liv P

I had the Sakura & strawberry cheese terrine - it was amazing (especially the cookie crumble). They also have other glutenfree cake options. Great café!

Tatiana

Beautiful place. They have gluten-free options, and the food is delicious.

DaRiddaa

Very delicous Curry and the salad with housedressing ist fantastic. Very friendly treatment with my glutenintolerance.

Ine

Excellent price-quality ratio. Nice choice of gluten-free and vegetarian dishes. Ultimately opted for a curry. Very thoughtfully, a large paper bib was ready. There were 6 jars of spices on the table that could give the dish extra flavor. Enjoyed lunch here.

Georgia G

Cute little place with nice flavors varying from traditional Japanese (black sesame, matcha, kinako brown sugar) to Italian classic (pistachio, hazelnut). Allergens are listed. Lots of gluten free flavors ! We chose to eat takeaway in front because there was an extra charge to sit in the back on their deck overlooking the river.
