Right outside of Nashville is a great place that serves delicious gluten-free pizza Open Original Shared Link

Support group for the area: Open Original Shared Link - they should have resources for you if you contact them.

All the restaurants at the Opryland Hotel can feed you quite wonderfully, too.

You can also find chains like Maggiano's and PF Changs, and a Whole Foods grocery store.

Enjoy!

They do the gluten-free diet wonderfully there, so it was probably just a person who didn't know much about Celiac. I ate gluten free at the reception (prepared specifically for me), one dinner at a restaurant in the hotel, and the brunch (which I definitely recommend!) The staff couldn't have been more helpful in finding safe food for me to eat, and even made my dinner/dessert to order in the restaurant. You'll enjoy it....a beautiful place for a wedding, and the gluten free dining makes it even more enjoyable. The Opryland is a one of a kind place! You'll have to let us know how it goes!

Matteos is about 25 minutes from Opryland. It is is Franklin. There is also a Garlic Jims in Franklin and they have wonderful gluten free pizza but that might be a trip for ya'll. Green hills is an area that is closer to opryland (10-15 minutes), they have carraba's, pei wei, zoe's kitchen, trader joes, and that is where the whole foods is located. I hope you enjoy the opryland hotel it is wonderful. Im from the area if you have any more questions, I am a member of the nashville support group also so just let me know if you need anything!

Thank you both for your great ideas about where to eat/shop while in Nashville. We are looking forward to our trip. It's only been just a year since we found out about my daughters celiac disease, and so traveling still worries me a little bit! So, thanks for the information!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
