Researched online and came across this place. Got some essentials and some wonderful recommendations for gluten free restaurants in the area. The owner is a member of the local Coeliac society. So far his recommendations have been spot-on!

This shop is great for anyone that’s gluten free, every single thing is and a lot of it dairy free too. Lots of choice and the nicest man running it, he gave us lots of recommendations for eateries and was really helpful, definitely worth a...visit even just for their pasta options!More
Visited to stock up on some gluten free items for our Venetian stay. Not only did they have an amazing range of products but the owners were so helpful in recommending some safe places to eat. A must visit for any coeliac or anyone eating...gluten free.More
This is a must go place for celiacs who visit the Venice. I had a little bit trouble to find ”trust worthy” gluten free food in Venice, but the shop owner recommended some great places for me to go eat(with reasonable prices). The shop was...really lovely and the owner picks the products by herself and does a very good research about them. There were also many dairy free options. I got the best gluten free croissants from there- they were delicious!!! Please do yourself a favor and visit this shop - you won’t be dissapointed!:)More
I always look for places to buy vegan (or at least dairy free) items when I travel. While this shop is more gluten free in focus, the woman who runs it (her son's gluten allergy was the inspiration for she and her husband to open...it) is just lovely, and very very caring and helpful. After she learned of my dairy allergy, she walked me around the store and pointed out what products were dairy free, and also told me of the products that are her favorites. We bought a variety of goodies, especially cookies and a tart and other snacks, that I was able to enjoy for the rest of our time in Venice. By the way, she also explained to me that, if you are in a restaurant and looking to avoid dairy, it is better to say to the waiter "senza casine" than "senza lattose" - the latter is more lactose free rather than completely dairy free.More
A great little gluten free shop with plenty of options. In addition to being a great shop, they also provided excellent recommendations for gluten free restaurants, ice cream parlours and breakfast places. Thanks so much.
We read about this gluten-free products shop in a blog post about traveling in Venice if you are celiac. When it turned out that our hotel wasn't offering a reasonably-priced breakfast, let alone one that was gluten-free, we made this one of our first stops....We picked up plum cakes and apricot cookies (the latter made locally in Burano) and other snacks for the rest of our stay. The owner was delightful and really helpful with restaurant recommendations. You won't be disappointed and it may just enhance your entire trip!More
We stopped in here on our recent trip to Venice. Luckily, they had just reopened following the August holiday. The small store is packed full of gluten free goodies. Additionally, the family who runs the shop was happy to mark our map with many excellent...recommendations for eating safely gluten-free in Venice. All of their recommendations were spot-on. Thank you for helping gluten-free travelers get the most out of their stay in Venice!More
The owner's family has severe gluten allergy and she has been trained by the government on how to maintain a gluten free kitchen. Vast array of GF products for sale and referrals to restaurants that adhere strictly to the government training.
The proprietors are very friendly and generous with information about safe places to eat. Don't miss the fabulous brioches. If you have a place to cook, be sure to buy some of the delicious gnocchi. This store is pretty easy to locate using Google Maps....Go. You will be glad you did. This is a shop, not a restaurant.More
I can't begin to recommend this shop more highly. My partner is Coeliac and we're staying in Venice, self catering. The shop was busy but the owner made so much time for us, gave my partner a small sample to try of something she recommended...(we bought a pack). She also haveus a list of gluten free places to eat, the tirst of which we went straight to. Absolutely wonderful.More
My wife, who is Celiac, spotted this place by pure fluke as we wandered the backstreets. Not only did she buy some great GF products, the proprietor also recommended so great places to eat with excellent GF choices.
I found a recommendation for this place while searching for gluten-free food online. They were just as friendly and helpful as I had read. They gave some excellent restaurant recommendations, and have an amazing range of gluten-free products, including local delicacies such as Colomba cake...and cookies which are a specialty of Murano.More
Helpful and friendly owner showed us the variety of items for sale. Pasta, breads and cake are the main things but also have a gluten free version of the traditional Venice biscuits that are on sale throughout the city. The variety of pasta is quite...something. There is very little in the way of fresh food otherwise I would have given a 5 rating.More
After a quick google before our trip I found this place and I can honestly say it was one of the best things about Venice. Mea was lovely - her English was perfect and she talked us through ingredients and cooking methods of some of...the product lines (there was a really good selection). It was so unbelievably easy for me and my partner who is a very sensitive celiac, and Mea even recommended some local restaurant and places to get gelato - an absolute must when in Italy! (Check out GROM if you're in the area, even the cones are gluten free!) we probably chatted for about an hour with Mea and her friend and Mea is always looking for feedback on the places she recommends so she can keep her celiac friends and family up to date, so you can really trust her recommendations. Such a pleasure, can't rate her and her shop highly enough!!!More
