Amazing gelato and unique vegan flavours - Edit
This place offers unique gelato flavours that you won't find outside of Japan, and has a wide selection of vegan options, including a vegan mini churro and hot/ice coffee. It was delicious, and I highly recommend it!
Read moreAlthough the menu doesn't specify, the cream is made of soy milk. Also, the ordering is done so that you select a type of product (e.g., number of scoops), and after payment you tell the staff which flavours you want.

Must try vegan gelateria in Kyoto - Edit
Huge selection of vegan ice creams, some traditional flavours such as the pistacchio which is a must try and some more unconventional with a Japanese touch.
Read moreI got pistacchio, salted caramel brown rice in a gluten free edible bowl with a churro.
The churro was very hard and dry, wouldn't reccomanded it.
Expect it to take up to 5 minutes at least per cone, they are very meticulous on how they assemble your order.
Pros: Pistacchio was very good, said by an italian, Flavors choice, Presentation
Cons: Takes ages for them to assemble your ice cream , Place wasn't particularly nice, Churro hard and dry

Amazing!! - Edit
Lots of vegan gelato options and all clearly marked. The waffle cone isn’t vegan, but the old school crisp cone is. The flavours are great and different. We had the ume plum, miso (cheese-ish), ninja and tropical (tastes like coffee). All were delicious. Highly recommend this place.

Try the miso flavored gelato- the best there. I thought the pistachio was kind of bland.

Worth multiple visits! - Edit
Not a vegan place, so not giving it 5 stars, but the ice cream was delicious and I wish I'd been able to go multiple times to try more flavours! Staff were helpful and there was so much choice. Lots of interesting Japanese traditional flavours. You get a 100yen voucher for money off your next visit!

Creamy vegan ice cream - Edit
Partner and I both agreed the pistachio flavoured ice cream was some of the creamiest (and tastiest) ice cream we have ever had. I had a brown rice caramel flavour which I did not love though. Overall great though. Friendly staff.

16 vegan gelato options 😁 - Edit
Wonderful little organic shop and gelato counter, I had the choice of 16 options so overwhelmed! You get to sample 3 before making your decision, I had the matcha one and the brown sugar with roasted soy flavour, absolutely delicious and is up there with the best I have ever had. It's only a 10 min walk from Nijo-Jo Castle, definitely stop by, the staff were very friendly and spoke English really well 😊🌿💚

Amazing Flavours - Edit
They have a vast choice of interesting vegan ice cream flavour. I tried the white miso cheesrcake flavour which was a but strange, but not bad. I finally opted for the Matcha Ume, and the Macademia Nuts Coffee flavour which were great! I’m definitively going back! I also got some vegan groceries! (Coffee, mapo tofu sauce, mock meat)
