This is some of the best gluten free food I have ever had in my 10 years of being gluten free!! Such kind service, delicious pastries, the karaage is life changing, I could go on and on. The turnip cakes are so delightful as well. The vegan delight and the oriental vegan plate are filling, hearty, and nourishing above all. Also, the handmade sodas are so tasty, such a nice addition to the meal. Please eat here!!! You will not regret it. I came here 3 times in my 4 days in Nara, and I’m sad it was only 3 times. I wish I knew the names of the people who run this place, they are so kind and make stellar food. I’m so enthusiastic about this place, what a highlight of my trip!! I will be back someday <3

We had a wonderful vegan, gluten free meal. The cafe was so cozy and it felt like we were eating a home cooked meal. We can’t wait to come back here again!

I was soooo excited to randomly find a gluten free cafe on our way to Nara Park. The chestnut cake was divine 😍😍 we had the Oriental vegan plate, while not a fan of vegan soy meats everything else was amazing. I loved the tea selections and gluten free cakes. They have an upstairs seating area (Japanese style on the floor) as well as a few seats downstairs. It was a little tricky to find the entrance as it seems like you’re walking through a gap at the end of the fence so it was a really fun find!
