Gracie's/shamrock Cafe In Dutchess Co., Ny

[SeanInNYC]

Out of utter random coincidence, I stopped on the way from NYC to Vermont off the Taconic Parkway in Dutchess County, New York, in the town of Lagrangeville. There I found a a tiny diner/coffee shop in a kinda hidden shopping center in the absolute middle of nowhere. It was listed as "Gracie's Cafe" on the GPS system, but the sign outside said "Shamrock Cafe".

Sat down at the table, and by accident one of the menus given to us was a Gluten Free menu. I was shocked. It was several pages. Gluten-free sandwiches, breads, pancakes, waffles...

I got an order of chocolate chip pancakes. They tasted like real chocolate chip pancakes, and they were made from scratch. They were delicious. So good that I was convinced they got the order wrong and I was eaten gluten-full.

However, I didn't have any kind of adverse reaction, so it seems like they got it right. I cannot say for certain what pains they take to avoid cross contamination, but I was very, very happy with the experience.

If you're ever heading up the east side of the Hudson 2 hours north of NYC, plan on getting off the Taconic at route 82, and head a few 100 yards north/east. One of the happier accidents you'll encounter

OMG!!! I live about 10 minutes from there and never knew they had a gluten free menu.

I ate there when it was Gracie's Cafe and I was still a glutenivore , and wasn't too impressed with their food.

But that was several years ago and maybe since the name changed, so did the food.

I am definitely going to head there as soon as i can to peruse that several page gluten-free menu!!

Thanks so much for the post!
