A stunning discovery in October for a mini vacation with my husband, every morning a nice walk to buy focaccia, various small pizzas, and then rushing to the Bay of Silence. At lunchtime, seeing my husband happy and satisfied. Excellent ingredients, everything delicious from bread to desserts. Before leaving, we stocked up. Discreet, polite, and kind, this place is truly a wonderful discovery. Thank you!

I went this morning to this small but well-stocked shop where you can buy gluten-free products. It’s a small bakery where they prepare everything fresh from bread to focaccia to sweets and also fresh pasta. The staff is very polite and helpful. I asked for some products that were not on display, and they told me that by calling beforehand, I can have them. I tried the products, and they are excellent; I will definitely return to stock up 😊

Very nice staff with visible production. My celiac daughter was very satisfied.

We visited this bakery we found online this morning. Highly recommended!! We got a few savory items; finding certain fresh gluten-free products is already difficult, and finding them this good is a mirage. Small focaccias with cheese and savory pie absolutely to try, so delicious! It's just a pity to be far away and not be able to enjoy them often.
5
Dear all, while passing through Sestri I needed to eat something quick, I booked a mixed tray the day before, everything was delicious: focaccia of all kinds, pizza, all sliced and ready to be devoured!!!
5
For those with celiac disease, what could be better than a bakery where you can buy croissants, tarts, pizzas, focaccia, etc., all strictly gluten-free? Top, highly recommended.
5
There should be one in every country! Only those who are celiac can understand the joy of finding a place like this! We stumbled upon it while heading to the center of Sestri Levante and immediately stopped as soon as we read the sign: inside you'll find all kinds of goodies, all strictly gluten-free and prepared in the lab on site. Pizzas, focaccias, bread, empty and filled croissants made to order with pistachio, cream, chocolate, or jam, cream-filled bomboloni, savory pies… everything a normal bakery offers, but GLUTEN FREE 🤩Tiny bakery, very kind, polite, and fast staff, prices more than affordable. We stocked up to finish our holiday week here in Liguria, and my daughter was pleasantly surprised by the quality of everything we bought (…and she is quite particular about flavors 🙄) WELL DONE! WELL DONE! WELL DONE!

A small gluten-free bakery just steps from the Sestri station, a paradise for us celiacs! Soft Ligurian focaccia with generous salt and oil as tradition dictates! The croissants filled on request with cream or jam, dusted with powdered sugar on top, are also delicious! Many other tasty savory and sweet treats! Friendly and smiling staff! You can even pay with Satispay, super convenient and reasonable prices! I highly recommend it because if you want to spend a day at the beach with "a piece of fugazza or sardenaira" it is possible and you also feel pleasantly normal! A hug from a Ligurian from the west!

They produce outstanding planned dishes. The focaccia is soft and tasty, and the bread in various formats is delicious. Celiacs, if you pass by Sestri, you must stop here. A true joy 😍 I congratulate the entire staff, and especially the owner, who does this job with passion, and the results are evident 👏👍

I have been gluten intolerant since March and I'm in a nearby country for vacation and I didn’t know where to find something for me. I would have really regretted not trying the Ligurian focaccia and other specialties. I found this place on the internet and what can I say... I booked easily over the phone and the next day I picked up my order. They were very kind, efficient, and the food is SPECTACULAR. Very honest prices. Truly a wonderful discovery.
5
good and fresh food. totally positive experience. highly recommended. everything completely and exclusively gluten-free.
5
Paradise of gluten-free. It's worth a special trip for all the baked goods, from bread to sweets to the unbeatable cream-filled doughnuts.
5
Very good products and very kind people. We stopped here on purpose before returning to Sardinia with the good intention of coming back next year to stock up again.
5
I absolutely recommend it. For now, I've tried the focaccia and the bread, and they are really good; they stay soft and flavorful. I'm curious to try the desserts as well.
5
Completely gluten-free oven. Great reference point (we were on vacation in the area). We tasted focaccia, cheese focaccia, oil bread, and savory pie with Swiss chard: everything was good!! Available for phone reservations. During the week, only morning hours (at least for now in January).
5
Friendly and helpful staff. Honest prices and excellent focaccia (even better than many 'normal' focaccias). Plus, since I asked where we could find a fountain to fill our empty water bottles, he offered to fill them for us. I recommend calling ahead to have products set aside because we didn't, and right after the afternoon opening, there wasn't much left.
5
a guarantee for celiacs... truly top focaccia also praised by non-gluten-sensitive people who have tried it... well done and thank you for thinking of us

I tried simple focaccia today, and according to my son, it was excellent. Also try the brioches; they are nothing like what you find around. Spectacular!
5
Outstanding quality food. I never had gluten free baking goods that tasted this close to the real stuff. My only regret is not living close to this shop. Would seriously consider crossing the alps again just for this place. 10/10
5
Here we had the most amazing gluten free pastry we have ever had. We went there twice in one day and testet so many different things. And everything was beyond perfect. And the prices are more than fair. I highly recommend this place.
5
I had a focaccia, a small pizza and a sweet dessert and everything was soo good! Can highly recommend this store if you are coeliac
5
Fantastic little GF bakery with friendly staff. Highly recommended!
5
Gluten-free focaccia is wonderful; the cheese one and the one with onions are truly the traditional Ligurian focaccias. The desserts are spectacular, and I have no words for how good the bread is.
5
Great completely gluten-free bakery, typical Ligurian products both sweet and savory are truly delicious, and the price is reasonable. I recommend the olive focaccia and the onion focaccia!
5
Focaccias, mini pizzas, and delicious gluten-free sweets. Everything was appreciated by my husband who is not celiac; you should open a branch closer to home! Keep it up!
5
a dream for my daughter!! highly recommended!!! also for ceremonies!!
5
Everything is really good!
5
The best gluten-free focaccias I have ever eaten and a crostata that deserves a 10 and praise. A wonderful initiative to prepare and serve such delicious food for those who, in most places, cannot afford such a luxury due to celiac disease. A heartfelt thanks to the baker, a very skilled and competent person with so much to tell, who even gifted my girlfriend and me some cannoli, which are also among the best I have ever tasted.
4
I order their products on Monday and pick them up directly from the Zeroglutine store. The mini pizzas, the sandwiches... and the cheese focaccia are very good.
5
It seems surreal to me that there is a place that makes focaccia, sandwiches, and sweets ALL GLUTEN-FREE and ACTUALLY GOOD! They nearly made me emotional...
4
Quick stop before closing for a taste of Ligurian focaccia. Really good, I didn't get a chance to try anything else, but I will definitely be back. We need more workshops like this!
5
Incredible range of freshly baked gluten free products - both sweet and savoury. Bomboloni still warm from the oven! Pastries with custard and tarts, focaccia and bread! If there is something specific you want and you will arrive after 10.30 it’s worth ringing to ask them to put aside for you - by midday they have often sold out! Fantastic side trip before cinque Terre to stock up - worth adding 20mins to your trip!
5
The focaccia is simply indistinguishable from a (great) traditional one. I also tried pizza, pan focaccia, and bread. They also have some products for sale (like pasta) from well-known and excellent brands. Highly recommended!
5
very good food
5
15 years without eating focaccia and finally, thanks to them, I could taste it again: exceptional! Special mention for the focaccia with onions. Everything savory in general is exquisite, perhaps the sweets aren't at the same level, but still good. The bread is excellent too.
5
Super good!
5
Wonderful location and excellent prices. The focaccia is delicious, as are the pizza and the cheese focaccias. The bread and brioche are a bit less to my taste, but still acceptable.
5
So much choice, friendly and helpful staff.
5
Great place! I hadn't eaten focaccia in 12 years, and I found no difference from the gluten version! Even my sister, who worked in a bakery for years, says it’s even tastier! Onion focaccia was more than exquisite; it felt like nirvana. Moreover, the staff is super friendly and more than helpful: I could book everything I wanted for the trip. I would return to Abruzzo just for these focaccias 😍 thanks for giving us the chance to savor these delights without any difference from those with gluten.

I have been celiac for 17 years and have never eaten such a good gluten-free focaccia, super happy and satisfied to have found this place, I recommend it to all celiacs! They also have all gluten-free pastries. The onion focaccia was out of this world.
5
Incredible selection and quality of products!! Here you can try the best gluten-free focaccia from Genoa on Earth!!! And mini pizzas with high-rise dough, impossible to distinguish from those made with "classic" flour. And of course, the always fresh and fragrant bread!! All at always affordable prices and staff that is always smiling and competent. In short, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
5
The only gluten-free bakery in Sestri Levante. The products are very good and guaranteed gluten-free. There are also some pastries and take-away gastronomic products for sale. The staff is available for every need and very courteous. It deserves to be visited.
5
Truly rare is the passion with which the master baker of the gluten-free bakery in Sestri Levante creates new plans every day. This endeavor, born from love and passion kneaded into gluten-free flours, will achieve the success it deserves. I travel 40 km just to enjoy his specialties.
5
Great products, friendly and courteous staff. After 20 years of dieting, I finally remembered the taste of the real Ligurian focaccia, never found fresh gluten-free until today.. I really needed this!
5
Now the Fornaio is a point of reference for those who want to buy fresh gluten-free bread: very kind owners, excellent products with quality ingredients. The baker often experiments with new recipes and offers them for tasting! Ready meals and cakes (sweet and savory) are also available by reservation. P.S. I highly recommend the pizza, truly exceptional, I would even say better than that of several "normal" bakers!
5
Everything is fantastic! I bought a lot of things for my mom today, and she was extremely satisfied, both sweet and savory items were delicious, astonishing prices for a gluten-free workshop, and not to mention, a very kind young man served me! We live in La Spezia but we'll see each other very often.
5
Produce gluten-free bread and pastries of all kinds. They are good and tasty products.
5
Excellent quality products! The owner Matteo keeps adding new items, and they are all perfect.
5
We really needed a gluten-free bakery; it was missing... Despite having a strong baking and focaccia culture here in Liguria, we don't have many bakeries that offer services for gluten-intolerant people. Excellent pastries, beautiful focaccia, fantastic staff, and honest prices!

Finally a gluten-free oven only in Sestri Levante, excellent focaccia. Production of pastries, also by reservation.
