I highly recommend Essenza for your breakfasts, snacks, and birthday cakes! The more, the merrier. The ladies are very kind and capable, and the food is outstanding. Sometimes it's hard to believe that everything is gluten-free because it's so DELICIOUS!

I bought bread, stuffed focaccia, and cream pastry. All fresh and delicious, very useful to have nearby.

Trusted shop. They have a lot of products and a quality bakery/pastry shop. I have been sourcing from Essenza for years to make desserts for special occasions. This year, the cake they made for my birthday, aside from being very beautiful aesthetically, was really very good. So much so that my friends said it didn't even seem gluten-free.

A well-stocked gluten-free food store. But the bakery/pastry shop is definitely worth a review (with 6 stars if possible)! There is a wide selection of gluten-free brioche, pastries, bread, and other savory products. I had one of the best gluten-free croissants ever! The bombolone was also delicious. There's a very nice little veranda with tables where you can enjoy these treats. Kudos to the pastry chef and thank you!

5 stars are also few... gluten-free and lactose-free graduation cake to envy all the pastry shops. Sublime taste... all the guests were left speechless. Endless thanks from Thomas.

I often come with my partner for snacks or light meals; the counter is stocked based on the time we arrive, but there's always something that satisfies us. The sweet section is always more "ample" than the savory one. They also have takeout desserts for groups and packaged goods like from a "supermarket." The staff is always friendly and helpful, making it a sure choice for those who are intolerant to gluten and lactose. Good value for money.

A fully stocked bar exclusively gluten-free! Many high-quality products including sweets...cakes...cookies...pastries...leavened products...; as well as savory items like flatbread...pizza...bread... Plus, there is a wide selection of packaged products. All fresh products are homemade, and they also make birthday cakes 🎂 to order that rival those from traditional gluten pastry shops. This is a true paradise for celiacs and an oasis of gluten-free refreshment for those who want to take a break, whether it’s for a delicious breakfast or a tasty snack.

I am lactose intolerant and sensitive to highly refined wheat flour, and for me, this place is a paradise! The quality of the baked goods is extremely high, and the staff is kind and helpful. The only downside: the prices. Unfortunately, gluten-free products, especially if they are of high quality, come at a cost. In this case, it is worth every penny because everything is truly delicious. Additionally, they have a small space with chairs and tables where you can consume directly on-site. I can only give it the highest rating.

Quality products, excellent service, all within reach for lactose and gluten issues and more, just a stone's throw from home. Very kind people who give advice and explain all their own production goods. Highly recommended!

A wonderful pastry and bakery with a wide selection of gluten-free products without compromising on taste. The attached shop is a smart choice to help those on a gluten-free diet replicate at least part of the delights tasted from the hand of the fantastic pastry chef Elisa. A place to return to again and again, even if you're not celiac!

Charming and welcoming place. I found a wide assortment of sweet and savory gluten-free and lactose-free options. I had an excellent breakfast with fresh croissants filled on the spot and a truly exquisite peach soaked in alchermes. Absolutely worth trying. I will return soon.
