This place opened just after I was diagnosed with celiac disease, so I was very new to gluten-free eating. I felt so lucky to have Berlin's first dedicated gluten-free bakery right in my neighborhood. Over the years, I'd try each new product they came out with, but also was enjoying fresh bread and baked goods in places like Spain, the States and UK at some of best GF bakeries in the world. Experiencing how good gluten-free can be made me realize what I was missing here. The breads are really dense and I find they all taste the same, like really pungent alternative flours. It's such a shame that they don't branch out with different flavors and textures for different preferences, because I know from experience it is possible. The desserts are where they really lose me. Generally dry with not a lot of flavor, like something healthy masquerading as a dessert. There's no decadence factor. Full disclosure, I am a passionate foodie and baker, and I make my own sourdough from scratch, so if I enjoy everything I make so much more than what I can get here, there's no point in going. I really really wanted to love this place, but honestly, I'd rather trek all the way across town where there are two gluten-free bakeries with much tastier...
Read moreMy favorit Bäckery in the country, by far. Their recipes for pastry is top notch. It's important to note that not all products are available all the time. They rotate on a daily basis. Some times you can find croissants, some other times other delicious treats. Depending on the day of the week. Sunday, except bread, you won't find many things on the shelf (I guess they don't bake anything on Sunday). For coffee, they provide regular milk, lactose free milk and a bunch of diary-free milks (soy, almond, rice). Obviously, everything is gluten free and many things lactose free as well (when they have (mini) pizza, they have both regular and vegan pizzas available). Worth mentioning that prices are a bit higher than in other glutenfrei bakeries in the city (but worth it, IMO). They also sell coffee beans, for home brewing. Affordable price. (like 10€ for 250g, or something similar). For regular customers, they have a loyalty program, where, by ~100€ spent you receive a nice treat. I find it...
Read moreMy favorite gluten free bakery in town. Not only is the bread amazing, but the environment is very welcoming and the staff is incredibly kind and sweet. They have many options, both sweet and savory, for celiacs who are unable to eat oats and try to stay away from buckwheat. I cannot recommend this bakery enough; every time I stop by I dream of working there simply because of how wonderful it is. Majority of the food is vegan as well, unless you ask for non-vegan butter to pair with your bread which is perfect for those with gluten, dairy, and egg allergies! I simply cannot recommended this bakery enough! If you are a big fan of bread but have been disappointed in the past with gluten free options, this is the place that will change your...
