Anyone know of restaurants w/ Gluten-Free menus in western new york? I'm heading home to my small town of Olean, NY, about an hour south of Buffalo, and am pretty new to dealing with celiac so I've never thought about it before when I'm there. It's a pretty small town, so there aren't many chain restaurants, but I'm looking for anything w/in a reasonable radius (30-45 mins.)

Thanks.

Josh

There is a great web site called glutenfreerestaurants.com

They list all the gluten-free restaurants in the US. Good luck.

Thanks. I've checked it, but everything in NY is in or around the city, I'm gonna be in the sticks of western ny....or as we like to think of ourselves...the armpit of NY.

I've had good luck at the old library... they don't have a "gluten-free menu" but they know what I'm talking about when I say no wheat/flour. The hot bacon dressing on the spinach salad is excellent (w/o croutons, of course). I usually get the porkchop with a baked potato, but have had good luck with the steak (just have them check on the seasonings for you) and one time they even made me a flour-free version of the chicken with pesto sauce (they were really slow that night).

We've had such good luck there we really haven't tried other places... except beef and barrel once when I had a plain salad (no dressing) with plain beef on top (safe, but boring).

I've heard there is a smokey bones all the way in buffalo (and even a place that does gluten-free pizzas on wednesdays only, called the pizza plant - I've never been, but if you find yourself there it might be worth a try), and you can check the outback website... but I think the closest one is about 45 min away.

(oh, and tops sells tinkyada and a few other gluten-free things near the end of an aisle up in the front of the store, just ask someone to point you in the right direction!)

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
