Amazing! Amazing! Lovely staff and a cosy little cafe. We arrived late in the day, 5.30 (close at 6pm) and they accommodated us for a quick dessert. They had sold out of their rice flour bread so couldn’t get the sandwiches. Highly recommend.

Entirely gluten free bakery. Lots of options but some are very pricey. Quality is very good!

While strolling around Myogadani, I suddenly came across the ``biossa gluten-free bakery specialty store''. Attracted by the word gluten-free, I decided to buy the "salted butter roll" to try it out. When I took a bite, I couldn't help but smile at how delicious it was. The rich flavor of butter and the perfect amount of salt spreads in your mouth, and the chewy texture is irresistible. Butter rolls are delicious enough to eat on their own, but they also go well with a variety of dishes and side dishes. You can imagine what kind of combinations you would enjoy. There are many delicious bakeries in Myogadani, so if the bread at the first shop you stumble across is so delicious, you may be satisfied without trying other bakeries. However, if you definitely add ``Biossa gluten-free bakery specialty store'' to your repertoire, you will be able to live a richer baking life. The bread at this shop is completely gluten-free (rice flour bread). When you think of gluten-free bread, you have the impression that you have to compromise on taste and texture, but this is not the case at all with the salted butter rolls here. In fact, I found it to be so perfectly delicious that I didn't even realize it was gluten-free. When you come to Myogadani, be sure to stop by ``biossa gluten-free bakery specialty store.'' I'm sure you'll be waiting for an encounter with delicious bread that will change your concept of gluten-free.

Had lunch here today, phenomenal curry. Our waitress informed us the cafe is closing for 2 months and will only serve coffee and gluten free cake going forward. No more meals.

I wanted to buy gluten-free bread, so I went in just after lunch on a weekday. There was a cute, friendly female staff member at the back of the counter preparing the bread? Making the dough? There didn't seem to be any customers at the cafe. It said it was a cafe, so I was worried I'd be able to buy just the bread, but I was able to. The shop is located a little way down the road across from MUJI, across from 246. From Takashimaya, it's just past Tsubame Grill and on the left. From Futako Tamagawa Station, it's about a 5-6 minute walk. I don't know if it's intentional, but the feel of the shop, from the exterior and interior, to the slightly dark atmosphere and concept, is very British (those who have been to England should know...) I didn't call out to the staff, but they stopped what they were doing and came to the register, probably because they saw me pick up a loaf of bread from the display, so I was able to pay smoothly. Rice flour bread is sold in tiny miniature loaves, and the price varies depending on the type, but it's about 400 to 500 yen per loaf. From what I saw, there were four kinds: plain, sweet sake, chocolate, and raisin. In terms of size, one loaf is about the size of a hot dog bun, I think. So, one person can eat a whole loaf in no time. The bread is rice flour bread, and the inside is chewy. The crust is crispy and very delicious. The inside is chewy, but it doesn't have the heavy, dense feeling that rice flour bread often has, and I think it's relatively fluffy for rice flour bread. It was my first time there, but I really liked it. I want to go again. There aren't many bakeries around here that make gluten-free bread, so I hope they keep doing their best.

Food was amazing, best in Japan by far. Owners were very nice and friendly. We went for lunch and then dinner the next day, a must for vegans and gluten free in Kanazawa

Yumm, so good!! Had a gluten free strawberry/cream and a curry egg sandwich! It was delicious!

城坂テロリズム

It is located in a building directly connected to a subway station. This time I had a gluten-free sandwich. The sandwich, which mainly consisted of lightly seasoned vegetables, ham, and shimeji mushrooms, was delicious. It may be suitable for those who prefer a lighter seasoning. There were also handmade items for sale and a take-out menu. The clientele is classy and calm, so you can relax. The decorations and vessels are so elaborate that it looks like a museum. Recommended for those who like this kind of atmosphere!

A restaurant where you can eat delicious vegan food. I came here with my child who doesn't like meat. I ordered a lunch course, but the number of appetizers was Children can taste many different kinds. I was very happy! It’s hard to believe that the pasta noodles are gluten-free. It was delicious, so I visited the manufacturer and was shown the product, and it turned out to be organic gluten-free pasta. I don't think it was written as organic on the menu, so it may change again, but I felt that they were particular about it, even though it was probably quite expensive compared to similar products. It's vegan, gluten-free, healthy, and reasonably priced, so it's become my favorite restaurant. The staff at the hall were very attentive. This is a recommended point! I will visit you again, thank you very much.

DO NOT EAT HERE IF YOU ARE COELIAC!!! I ordered from here the other night (it was actually great food and super well priced) and then went to order again today and reiterated that I’m coeliac and it’s an allergy and the person said that even though it says ‘gluten-free’ it’s ALL IN THE SAME FRYER!!!! I was really disappointed because the person serving me the other night hadn’t told me this and I had a reaction and couldn’t figure out where I’d eaten gluten. Please educate your staff when someone is ordering gluten-free there is a high chance it is an ALLERGY and not by choice.

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.

Beautiful panorama. No gluten free. Costs too much. And there is no table service.

This restaurant was a great first stop in Shibu Onsen! They were incredibly accommodating of gluten and nut allergies and were happy to modify anything they could. The mushroom sampler was great, but we recommend skipping the snow monkey branded sake (better options available).

Fantastic authentic mexican food. I am allergic to gluten (coeliac) and we spoke to the chef who advised I can eat all of the Tacos Maza and Soups. Aztec soup in particular was really special. Delicious, thank you! They have vegetarian and vegan menus too

Gluten free sandwiches in a very cute cafe in Harajuku! Safe and yummy.
