Gf In Roanoke Va

[Yak-Trebor]

I am from Bakewell, England.

I have recently been diagnosed with Celiac desease (Ceoliac in the UK).

I travel to Roanoke VA, on business about twice a year.

It would be a great help if anyone can suggest any places to eat.

To add to the excitement.... I am also a Veggie!

I went to college in Lynchburg, VA....Roanoke was one of my school's rivals, although Charlottesville is a good bit away from Roanoke, they have a Whole Foods which is unbelieveable...also, any Kroger has a selection of gluten free frozen foods, you'd be suprised. The bread isn't exactly the best, but I haven't really found much that is!! hope I helped!

They have an Outback in Roanoke that you might check out. We've only eating there once.

Thanks for the information.

If I grt time, i will try and make my way to Charlottesville.

I have been to the outback in Roanoke previously.

They do not have ANYTHING that is veggie, either gluten-free or not!

Does anyone know of any of the big 'chain' food outlets/restaurants that can provide both veggie and gluten-free?

Sorry I should have re-read your post. Do a google on Roanoke Natural Foods. This is a co-op store that is open to the public and I've been there several times. I think the store has been open for many years and it is not as big as a regular suppermarket. However, I've found that they do have more gluten-free and organic veggie options than other stores in Roanoke. They also have the "Happy Belly Deli." I can't vouch for the deli because I've never eaten there. They have a downloadable menu, it looks at though they have a few veggie options but a lot of the items are sandwitches and wraps. I'm sure you could e-mail them to see if they have gluten free options.

Hope this helps!
