Gettysburg (pa) Gluten Free Group

Hey Everyone in the Gettsyburg area,

This is a very last minute reminder that tonight, @ 7 pm at the Gettysburg Hospital, we are having our Spring support group meeting. We will have lots of samples and vendors, and Jules E. D. Shepard will be there with her new book "Nearly Normal Cooking for Gluten-Free Eating."

This is a really great group of people that embraced me and helped me immensely when I was first diagnosed 3+ years ago. They are a fantastic bunch and the meetings are always informative and fun. Hope to see some of you there. If you have any questions, let me know!

- Lauren

Could you tell me what resturants serve gluten free foods in Gettysburg?

Thanks in advance

Is there a mailing list or email list to get on board with for this? I'm very interested but cannot make it tonight. Thanks!

This was a thread from 2007. I believe the Gettysburg group has closed as of this year. The woman who ran it was diagnosed with cancer and no one stepped up to fill in.

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.

I think you mean the Dobbin House?

      Yes, I doubt you can find a perfectly safe restaurant--perhaps a dedicated gluten-free restaurant, but in general, very few of them exist, and they tend to be in larger cities. Super sensitive celiacs should probably just avoid eating out.

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Welcome to the forum, @Kenz! Eating out is the number one threat to anyone with celiac disease. The best advice I can give is "don't"! Especially if you are supersensitive. The biggest problem isn't avoiding gluten in what you order but in how it is prepared and handled back in the kitchen where cross contamination can and does happen at multiple stages before it gets to you. You would need to have conversations with the cooks and receive assurance that your food is cooked on clean surfaces and in clean pans and handled with clean utensils, separate from anything that contains gluten.

      I am new to this and have severely struggled to find places I can eat where I will not get sick. I am super sensitive to any cross contamination and gluten. I throw up, use the bathroom, get disoriented, can’t walk, can’t even lift my arms, legs, or head. It’s honestly so scary when I come in contact with gluten. I do live in a town where there aren’t many options. I live in Gadsden al. So if anyone has any recommendations of places to eat that would be so helpful .

      Thanks, Scott  That's good to know since I'm heading to the UK next week.😊
