Top 18 Gluten-Free Bakeries to Explore in Tokyo

Fun little vegan and gluten-free cafe. The staff working were friendly and kind. It is a small place and the serves are to the smaller side, too. Maybe more of a snack and treat spot I’d say. We came for lunch and had a pizza and burger plus cake and smoothies and drinks and weren’t full after. The rainbow cake looks beautiful, but wasn’t too flavorful. Tiramisu was more enjoyable. Great alternative cafe if on the search for gluten-free and vegan or dairyfree sweat and savory treats!

Excellent place for people with celiac disease! Everything is gluten-free and delicious. We tried the pepperoni pizza, a baguette, a bacon braid, and a kind of vegan curry-filled bun. It's a small takeout place, although there are a couple of benches outside where you can eat. The guy is very friendly and speaks perfect English. 100% recommended, but we recommend getting there early because they're so fast.

I happened to come across a gluten-free bakery so I went there with my husband. Everything looked delicious and it was hard to choose. The staff were friendly and very likable. When I received the bread, some were warm and I couldn't resist, so I tried them on a bench in a nearby square. They were plump and had the aroma of rice flour and were delicious. I'm going to buy some more now. I hope they still have some left.

I went to "Gluten-Free Rice Field Bakery Komekama" in Shinagawa for the first time. I was interested in the gluten-free rice flour bread specialty store, so I bought a cream cheese cake bread. The chewy texture unique to rice flour is irresistible, and the moist and rich cream cheese is matched exquisitely with the slightly sweet raisins, making it a luxurious taste like a dessert. It's so delicious that you wouldn't believe it's wheat-free, and it's healthy but also very satisfying. There are many other types, so next time I'd like to try other breads such as curry bread. This time I only bought one, so I'd like to try the other ones. The inside of the store was bright and clean, and the staff were polite. I would definitely recommend this store to anyone who is interested in gluten-free, as well as bread lovers!

Saved our trip! My son is gluten free, and Japan (largely) is not. It was very hard to find food for him, and other gluten free shops either weren’t really gluten free, or just tasted bad, had very small menus, or were closed when they said they were open. But Biossa had exactly what we needed. Good, fresh, delicious gluten free bread, muffins, baguettes, and croissants! That way we could pack and carry the breads around Tokyo, so my son could eat almost anywhere (by swapping out the provided breads with these gluten free ones). Game-changing. Thanks Biossa!

This place is amazing. A quick walk from Kichijōji station, there's several pleasant spots to tuck in and eat. My wife is celiac and she had a life-restoring Ratatouille moment of eating a cake and creampuff unlike anything she had eaten since she was young in Europe and able to have gluten. Thank you so much for a great treat!

If you asked me what my idea of heaven is, it’s this bakery. I cried happy tears when I saw the incredible range of authentic Japanese baked items on offer. 100% gluten free, this is truly a coeliac’s dream. I loved the self serve tray + tongs element of the experience. The fried curry bread is absolutely incredible and I was so excited to try gluten free melonpan!!! If you are gluten free, you absolutely MUST add this to your Tokyo itinerary! I’ll be thinking of this bakery for a very long time ❤️

The French bakery at Ginza No. 6 has a variety of items, with a delicate texture and strong gluten. The chewing process is a little laborious, but the aftertaste is fragrant and long-lasting. I don’t know how long I haven’t eaten such delicious bread. Although there were a lot of people queuing up at the checkout, the cashier was very systematic and quickly digested the flow of people without waiting for a long time.

This is a great shop for gluten-free bread. Surprisingly, there aren't any, so I'm glad it's within my range of action. I love using it because it goes well with coffee. .

This gluten-free waffle shop uses buckwheat and rice flour grown on their own farm in Shinanomachi, and the fruit seems to be delivered directly from the farmers. On this day, my eldest son and his wife invited me to go for a stroll around Yanaka Ginza, and my wife loves soba noodles, so my eldest son bought me some soba soft cream. The inside of the store is very spacious and new. It's a takeout specialty store, but there are chairs for resting inside.

When I was having lunch at a nearby restaurant called Otamaju, I saw a flyer and found out about it. As it is a gluten-free sweet, Don't worry about that! I asked. These are the most delicious sweets ever. All muffins except those containing chocolate, chiffon cake, and, I bought gateau chocolat, which my 4th grader loves. without feeling guilty, I bought it as a morning gift. I ate one to taste in the car on the way home, and... Really delicious, Texture, exquisite blend, sweetness, Everything is very delicious, I don't snack, I ate it with all my heart's desire. The few remaining muffins, Morning of the next day, I also received it in the morning the next day, No change in taste, I thought it might have helped because it wasn't nearby. If you go nearby, I will also buy everything except chocolate. ( ´ ▽ ` )

There are gluten-free products, but they are made in the same bakery - so they are all contaminated. Couldn't buy anything. It's a shame because everything looked delicious.

Review for こめパンカフェ (Monday & Tuesday) A really good gluten-free cafe serving rice flour baguette sandwiches. My chicken sandwich was delicious, and I really enjoyed the Satsuma potato pottage. The baguette was one of the best gluten-free baguettes I’ve ever had. It was crunchy on the outside, and soft and chewy on the inside. Next time I will try to come earlier in the day so I can buy cinnamon rolls. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. They also understood wheat and gluten sensitivities very well.

This is a shop where you can eat gentle and delicious bread that does not use milk or eggs and uses simple ingredients. ○About the store Business days are limited to Tuesdays and Sundays. However, there are opportunities to purchase it at other stores, such as those sold on consignment at Kojikumiya and Ikebukuro on Fridays. Details can be found on Instagram. In addition to selling bread, it also functions as a coffee shop, so you can eat and drink the bread you purchase with a set of side dishes. Unusually, there is a vending machine. The only rice flour vending machine I've ever seen is the one in Okayama. The staff at the store (Yukiko Sekine and others) were very responsive. Since the only payment methods were cash or PayPay, I went to withdraw the money, but they kindly kept the bread for me while I was there. ○About bread Currently, there are three types of rice flour-based products: bread, horohoro cookies, and chiffon, and the others are wheat-based. Therefore, although rice flour bread is gluten-free, contamination is possible. All the breads have simple ingredients and seem to be of good quality. Also, most breads are labeled with information on ingredients, etc., so you can choose and purchase with confidence. ○About what I bought #rice flour bread It's quite elastic and chewy. Moist inside. The bottom side is hard and filling. The sweetness is gentle but not too weak, and it's delicious enough to keep eating as is. Of course, the binding is good, and none of the parts fall apart (some powder does fall off). #Rice flour cookies It's crumbly but easy to eat. It's so flavorful that you can eat 4 of them right away. Personally, I wish there were more varieties of rice flour bread and more stores and opportunities to buy it. However, the rice flour bread is so delicious that it's worth going just to buy it, so I'll continue to go here.
