Shibuya’s tables, tasted and verified — with the real links to book and an honest word on what you can eat.
5 places
Brown-rice (genmai) bread and gluten-free taiyaki
A dedicated gluten-free, rice-flour bakery counter in the basement of Shibuya Scramble Square, making breads, taiyaki and sweets with no wheat, additives or white sugar, and many items are vegan and dairy-free. It is a grab-and-go bakery rather than a sit-down meal, and as a dedicated GF facility cross-contamination risk is low though not certified celiac-safe.
Vegan kara-age (plant-based 'fried chicken') and vegan gyoza
A fully plant-based izakaya in the basement of Shibuya PARCO serving vegan 'fried chicken', gyoza and lemon sours, with no meat, fish, eggs, dairy or honey, so the fish-dashi trap does not apply. It is not gluten-free, as the mock-meat batters and soy sauce contain wheat.
Plant-based nigiri and sushi sets using vegetable alternatives to fish
A sit-down plant-based sushi restaurant in Shoto (near Shibuya) where every piece is made without seafood or animal products, so there is no fish dashi to worry about. It is not gluten-free (soy sauce and some components contain wheat); reservations are recommended and the venue opened its permanent location in late 2025.
Organic vegetable curries and tandoor naan with vegan, vegetarian and halal options
The Shibuya outpost of the long-running Nataraj natural-Indian vegetarian group, offering spice-rich organic vegetable curries, tandoor naan and clearly labelled vegan, vegetarian and halal menus in the heart of Shibuya.
Falafel pita sandwich with hummus
Fully plant-based, build-your-own falafel pitas and hummus bowls inside Shibuya PARCO — a fast, affordable vegan refuel between the neighbourhood's shopping and nightlife.
