Wish I lived in Melbourne to experience Kudo more often, that's how great their stuff is. We had two toasties and some sweets, drinks are great too.

Amazing lil bakery 100% gluten free. Beautiful breads and cakes
Dedicated GF
I absolutely LOVE Kudo. I love Kudo so much I get their gluten free “sourdough” interpretation every 2 weeks, that’s how good it is! I am so thankful we have a world-class safe and dedicated gluten-free bakery in the CBD! I also loveee their savoury focaccia breads when they’re out.

Honestly Kudo is such a gluten-free staple in Melbourne that there’s not much I feel I could add! I will say this: it’s as amazing as everyone says it is, and it’s worth coming in every month or so as the menu does change.
Some things to keep in mind - not criticisms, just things to be aware of:
- The stools and tables are tiny, so it’s not the comfiest place to eat in at. You’ll be fine to sit down and have a coffee and a sandwich or whatever, but it’s not set up for people to sit and chat. If you need a supportive seat you might be comfier at the park across the road
- Not all of the menu is available from the time they open. Different things come out and different times throughout the day and things sell out too. If you go in early (before 10am-ish) some sweets may not be ready, in my experience
Those things in mind, everyone has to try Kudo at least once. The bread is second to none.

I have been regularly buying bread at Kudo for well over a year and still can’t believe it is Gluten Free. It is soooooooo good!! Sourdough fermented, crusty on the outside and soft and airy on the inside. The bakery is dedicated GF with no gluten products or ingredients onsite. The baguettes are to die for.

I was visiting Melbourne and this bakery was around the corner from my hotel. I got a loaf of the sourdough and the sourdough & olive. Seriously some of the best tasting gluten free bread I have ever had! As a sensitive Celiac I was in heaven. It looked liked they had nice desserts and coffees too, but I will have to save those for my next visit.

I had a delicious pastrami sandwich and matcha lychee swiss roll. I've never had a gf cake so spongey and light! Very impressive!!

Absolutely amazing! This is my favourite gluten free bakery in Australia. The bread is SO good! It’s a very small venue so not the best space to eat inside, but you can get takeaway and take it to the park nearby. Some of the menu changes regularly, I’d recommend any kind of garlic scroll or herbed bread, and then of course their tarts are delicious when they have them.

Completely gluten free bakery, what a godsend! Only downside is that it's a REALLY small space aimed at take away orders, so there's only like 4 seats for dine-in.

Best GF bakery/coffee shop! Amazing tuna melt and pastrami sandwiches!
Dedicated GF
The guys have my heart! Visiting Melbourne from Dublin. First thing to check was for a GF bakery and these guys did not disappoint. Only one option in the treats department for a gluten and dairy free sweet which i didn’t love but the bread is to die for. Take yourself here for a toasted sandwich (look they are expensive but it was sooooo worth it!) The bread is some of the nicest sourdough Iv had

Lovely place! You should definitely visit! Yummy bread and delicious sweet treats. Tiny little place with a few benches to sit and have a toastie or tuna melt. Bread is 10/10. The tuna melt was fabulous, wish I had more time in Melbourne to come again.

In our 20 day visit to Melbourne my partner and I visited 6 times 😂. I even made an order to fly some bread back to Canada with me. 10/10! The coffees, toasties, desserts were all amazing! Easily our favourite gluten free spot in the city.

Finally…great pastries and bread for coeliacs. A small but very busy hole in the wall style bakery that serves great coffee too.

Grabbed some fruit toast - so good, soft on inside and toasty on the outside. Yummy chunks of fruit. Made fresh. Little place really for takeaway- worth visiting

There is no space to sit and eat at the Cafe and I found the cakes to be a bit bland. But all is gluten free and the chai latte was nice.

Fantastic dedicated GF bakery with great options of sweet and savoury. Hearty and filling toasties were gorgeous, along with the canelés and madeleine (the madeleine is closer to a small pound cake in texture rather than a traditional madeleine, but delicious and not dry in the slightest). We also had their pandan jelly latte which was absolutely delicious. Delightful place and would 100% reccomend!

Amazing, really unique pastries. The entire place is GF. I had a matcha green tea tiramisu - wow. They also offer a range of breads and other pastries including choux pastries. The location is tiny but worth squeezing in to wait your turn. :)

Tried the baguette and I was afraid it would not hit the spot. Not the same as regular bread but oh boy, what a joy to enjoy a crunchy chewy crust again! Will definitely try the other breads too!

Love this place! Tried a number of the canneles (hojicha and quince is amazing!!), a choux pastry, and the choc chip biscuits, as well as the smoked chicken toastie. Everything has been delicious!

My first food experience in Melbourne! I got one the cashier recommended, the three cheese toastie and a vanilla and rum canelle. The bread was really good, I could see myself eating a whole baguette. I definitely want to stop in again - cannot believe this is entirely GF! Menu seems to be rotating seasonally, small selection of toasties - understandably so because it is a tiny bakery in the city.

Lovely little dedicated GF bakery making excellent bread. We bought the pumpkin loaf to take away and had cheese toasties, canele, and coffee/hot chocolate for breakfast. Everything was great. The hot chocolate was dark and strong - perfect. Only seating for 5! 2 inside and 3 outside under cover. It was 10 degrees C and raining but we were comfortable in the outside space.

Go to Kudo and get a baguette and forget you are a ceoliac. Also get a chiffon cake you deserve it.

Some of the best gluten free food in Melbourne. Make sure to try their bread.

Firstly this is 100% GF establishment. The baguette is beautiful and crusty. They also do great tasting toasties, cakes and coffee. This is a foodie destination.
Dedicated GF
OMG delicious. Worth waiting in the lineup even at the open. Cheese toastie on homemade sourdough was delicious. Best GF hot cross buns.
Dedicated GF
Stopped in and grabbed a few sandwich options and cappuccino, it is a great spot and they had a few seats to enjoy food there.
Dedicated GF
Definitely worth a trip into the city just for the Baguettes. Stock up if you can and portion and freeze. They are the best! My fave bread from their menu.
Dedicated GF
Great little dessert cafe, everything is GF!
