Long Beach Island Nj - gluten-free Options

Have been noticing a lot more gluten-free options on LBI. I have not tried all of them or can attest to the cross contamination possibilites so please question on your own. Here are some I have read seen:

Pangaea Naturals Health Food Market - RT 72 Health food store with plenty of gluten-free items including breads, pastas, cereals and frozen items.

Greenhouse Cafe - Surf City - gluten-free pizza gluten-free rolls for breakfast sandwiches etc (had both and enjoyed them)

Boulevard Clams - Surf City - gluten-free Crab cakes - very good but expensive as I ordered them cooked. $20 for two crab cakes with two sides. (Potato salad is not gluten-free - they told me) - they also sell them in the fish market and you can cook them at home I assume they are cheaper.

Panzones Pizza - Beach Haven location - gluten-free pizza - had it and it was good

Calabria Ristorante Beach Haven - gluten-free pizza and pasta never tried it

Buckalews - Lists gluten-free options available on their online menu and advertisment - have not been there so I am not sure what they specifically offer. I beleive they have Red Bridge

Plantation Restaurant - Harvey Cedars - I beleive at one time they listed gluten-free options on their menu not sure if they still do. Never been there.

Places that offer Red Bridge Beer:

Callahans - Surf City at the bar

Gateway - Ship Bottom at the bar and liquor store

Kubels Too - at the bar

Buy Rite Liquors - Rt 72 East

Shell Liquors - Ship Bottom

Terrace Tavern - had it in the past not sure if they still do.

Sussex County is a little far from where I am so I am not familiar with the area. I see one online - Little Anthony's Pizza in Vernon. There are plenty of websites that could help you out.

thank you - i saw that on the glutenfreenj site :) my sister is checking a place in oak ridge that is supposed to have gluten-free pizza. she is seeing how vigilant they are about cross contamination. i'm crossing my fingers!

wish i was going to LBI! barnegat lighthouse is where i first discovered i was deathly afraid of heights lol you used to be able to climb to the top :)

You can still climb to the top.

I just finished a delicious meal at Buckalews. The menu was clearly marked and the food was fresh and inspiring. I ordered the scallops in a lima bean and corn succatash. It was flavorful and creamy. Our waitress was Jane and she was well informed and friendly- I will ask for her again. I will be back there for sure.

      Thank you— yes, valid and essential— The issue either doctors is that every one I have tried to talk to about this has essentially rolled their eyes and dismissed me as a hypochondriac, which gets discouraging. I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—

      You’re not crazy—some people have severe neurological and physical reactions to gluten, not just digestive issues. While testing can be tricky without eating gluten, documenting symptoms and seeing a specialist familiar with atypical celiac or gluten-related disorders can help. Your reactions are real, and it’s valid to be cautious.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results.  Thank you
