Boulangerie L'oiseau Bleu - Kyoto

This is heaven for people who are celiacs or want to have more gluten free options The owner has definitely perfected the art of making gluten free bread. I do not avoid gluten but her breads are easily the best gluten free breads I've eaten in Kyoto. She is also very friendly and accommodating, giving me a free banana muffin after we had a nice chat about spreading veganism and healthy eating in Kyoto. They used to be a normal bakery until the owner learned more about gluten free and vegan cooking from Choice Cafe, after which she had the epiphany to completely switch to a vegan and gluten free bakery a year ago. I was very impressed and inspired by her dedication in providing healthy and delicious products for her customers. Highly recommend even if you aren't allergic to wheat. This is a fantastic and lovely place that deserves more recognition.

Recommended to me by Dr. Harue Suzuki, owner of choice. Tried most of the breads. Will definitely be back for more

I bought three different buns from here: raspberry and two different kinds of anpan which all were super yummy. The texture was fantastic, really impressed as it’s gluten free. They also sell cookies and vegan cheese!

Really cute vegan and gluten free bakery near Kamigamo Jinja! The bread has a really fluffy texture and tastes like normal non-gluten free bread.
