Hi all,

I am new to this forum. I will be traveling to Boston for a wedding next weekend, and would like to know if there are any restaurants with gluten-free options in Quincy Market. I really appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

Hi Terrie!

I live outside of Boston and here is the listing of the finer dining places in Quincy Market. I would advise eating at a higher end place because most of the other food places will be hard pressed to serve you gluten-free food. I have eaten at McCormick and Schmick's before and they are a seafood place. They accommodate and I did not get sick. Open Original Shared Link

If you really want a fantastic gluten-free experience, I would HIGHLY recommend "Marco" in the North End. It is very easy to get to from Quincy Market. All you do is cross the Greenway into the North End and they are on Hanover St., which is easy peasy to find...one of the main drags. You pretty much dump onto Hanover after crossing the Greenway. From Quincy Market it will take 10 minutes to walk to Marco. You should call ahead for reservations as they will make fresh gluten-free bread for you and it arrives at the table warm. They have many gluten-free options, including good gluten-free pasta, and will make just about any pasta dish you want that's do-able with gluten-free pasta. They also have half plates and full size, depending on your appetite. Not sure if you are able to go outside of the Market to eat but Marco is definitely worth your while but you do need reservations. Open Original Shared Link Scroll down on the menu and you'll see the remarks about gluten-free options.

Hope this helps and I hope you have a great time! Boston is pretty gluten-free friendly so don't worry too much.

Thank you SO much! You put my mind at ease!

Glad to hear that. You do still have to be careful, as always, but Boston is an easier place to find gluten-free and "most" of the people working in finer dining establishments are savvy to our needs. I am very sensitive and go out to eat in the city about twice a year and haven't had a problem yet. The Registry link is a big help too.

Let me know where you end up eating and how it went! :)

      Malabsorption of vitamins and minerals from celiac disease tends to be global. So, if you are low in one or two things that have been tested, you are likely low in other vitamins and minerals as well. Routinely, we the admins on this forum recommend to those celiacs who were undiagnosed for years to supplement with sublingual B12, a high-potency B-complex, D3 (5000 to 10,000 IU daily), magnesium glycinate (the form of magnesium is important for optimum absorption and also to prevent a laxative effect) and zinc picolinate (the form is important). Please realize that an adult multivitamin is just not strong enough to effectively correct severe and long-standing deficiencies.  Make sure all supplements are gluten free. If you have access to a Costco store, there Kirkland Signature products and Nature Made lines are good choices, good quality, fairly economical and will specify on the label if they are gluten free. Many of them are gluten free.  I'm assuming your doctors have checked your potassium levels since you have been on blood pressure meds. Some of them will leach potassium from the body and potassium is a critical element in cardiac health. Also, many blood pressure meds cause coughing in a significant percentage of people: https://bloodpressureexplained.com/blood-pressure-medications-that-cause-coughing/

      So interesting @Ccoast Celiac that you have experienced the same issue as @MO1984 with the same manufacturer. I don't have any "gut issues" that I can feel, but my bloodwork is out of wack. I have an endo scheduled shortly, and hope there is no sign of damage! Wondering if you have had bloodwork done that shows problems.

      Yes I was officially diagnosed as Celiac.  although an older brother almost died because of coeliac disease we were never informed that it was genetic. An orthopod suspected coeliac because of frequent falls and osteoporosis. I also suffered from pneumonia at least once a year often twice a year. All of this stopped after the diagnosis. Three years ago in January, my husband passed away.  Until that time, I had the blood pressure of a teenager.  About two months later, the blood pressure issues began. I had been told that the coeliac disease prevented my body from absorbing calcium and vitamin D. I am wondering if there are other minerals or vitamins that my body lacked. My blood pressure average is in the 170s but drops below 100 frequently.  After three years and numerous medication’s, I have a diagnosis, but I do not respond to any blood pressure medications.

      Welcome to the forum, @Dorothy O.! May we assume you have now been officially diagnosed with celiac disease? You seem to imply this and if so, when did these blood pressure and cough symptoms start to appear?

      After being an undiagnosed celiac for 70 years, I’m now 80 years old and have been experiencing high and low blood pressure extremes along with a severe cough.  Both cardiologist and respirologist are at loss for treatment.  Is it food related to being celiac?
