I visited Gettysburg last month.  There is a great little coffee shop on middle st. by the name of Mom's Coffee Pot... near the court house.   Went there twice for a gluten free breakfast sandwich that was delicious.  They are open for breakfast and lunch.  Dobson's guest house/inn/pub had steak and baked potato...no gluten-free menu to speak of but the atmosphere is great...period costumes for the waitresses in a historical home.  Also had a great piece of fish at the hotel restuarant in the Wyndham Hotel on the edge of Gettysburg.  I was told by the hostess that there wasn't much except salads for celiacs.  The  chef made me a broiled fish and veggies that was quite tasty.  My advice would be to speak up.   This is very much a tourist town and they do cater to the tourist.  


I didn't find any of the larger chain restaurants in the area, but there are many one of a kind businesses that can accomodate a gluten free diner with some advance notice.  

Hope you enjoy your trip to Gettysburg.

My wife just started a gluten-free diet, and out bread machine does not have any special settings. What needs to be adjusted for gluten-free mixes?

James,

I do have machine with the gluten free setting, but have also successfully made bread with a gluten-free recipe on just the white bread setting and it came out fine.  You can't over work gluten free dough, supposedly.  

Try a search of this forum for more threads on gluten free bread baking.  There is lots of great information on this site.

The Bob's Red Mill Homemade Wonderful Gluten free bread mix works for me if I use 1/4 cup less milk than the suggested amount.  I use the 1.5 pound loaf setting and the gluten free cycle if your machine has one.  It also comes out fine in the regular white bread cycle, tho.  The extra kneading won't hurt your finished product.

i also realized that I liked this bread a whole lot more with the crusts cut off!  It is my favorite for good old peanut butter and jelly.

As for the high cost, Amazon has it for about $4.00/package if you buy the case with 4 packages and use the Amazon prime for free shipping.

Glad you enjoyed Jonathan's.  Looks like the key is to call ahead of time.  I had a mediocre experience last year but hadn't called ahead.  Even after I gave the waiter the Triumph dining card and ordered a gluten free lobster casserole with out the bread crumbs, he arrives at the table with a complimentary appetizer from the chef....served on a CRACKER, no less.  ( for what it is worth, it looked beautiful!)  They must have gotten some education in the past year.

If you are looking for other gluten free dining experiences in Ogunquit, try the Oarweed in Perkins Cove.  They definitely get it and the view is spectacular.

The largest gluten free menu in Ogunquit this past summer was at Julie's Ristorante,
396 Main St.  Tel. 207-641-2522.  I can't even recall what I had, but it was nice to be able to get everyone's take out dinner at the same spot and it is close to everything in town.  Delivery is also an option.  If you are looking to surprise a loved one on your vacation, they offer gift baskets as well.

I have no affiliation with any of these businesses.  I just love Ogunquit, too!

Beverly,

thanks for the Bellini's link...will definitely put that one on my list for my next trip to North Conway.  Glad you had a great weekend!

Bev too!
