<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Thank you to all who responded - my apologies for the delay of the summary: ****************************************** I lived in Gettysburg for 14 years and ran a large GF support group there. Here are a couple suggestions: 1. Mom's Coffee Pot is open for breakfast or coffee until 11 AM. Mary's husband has celiac disease and so she is very knowledgeable about the GF diet, cross contamination, etc. She makes fabulous GF Belgian waffles on Saturdays, breads, and other dessert treats. (717) 398-2736 · 65 W Middle St Gettysburg, PA 17325. You may want to call before going as occasionally they go away on vacation. Her building is a true historic one, and lots of local color meet there for coffee and conversation. 2. DeLiso's Italian restaurant also is quite knowledgeable and accommodating as CD runs in their family. They offer GF pastas dishes (ravioli! penne pasta!), subs and GF pizzas. The pizza makers dust their marble counter with rice flour so there is no contamination with wheat in the restaurant. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g60798-d405672-Reviews-Deliso_Pizza-Gettysburg_Pennsylvania.html 3. Otherwise you need to use restaurants with a chef, such as The Dobbin House on Steinhwher Avenue, or The Farnsworth House on Baltimore Street, both near the center of town. 4. Just outside of Gettysburg, in Emmitsburg, MD - if you should approach the area via RT 116 - is the Carriage House. They are well aware of the GF diet and can accommodate us. 5. Giant grocery store has a nice salad bar for quick meals. 6. A delightful ice cream shop on Baltimore street (directly across from the Farnsworth House) is Mr. G's, a very popular place with the locals as well as tourists. The historic building is awesome. The flavors are many and vary weekly. Senior staff and owner (likely not the teen helpers) are aware of GF issues and will show you their ingredient list. 7. Right on the Square in town and connected to the Best Western Hotel there, is One Lincoln restaurant. They have a few GF items on their menu. http://www.hotelgettysburg.com/dining-en.html *************************************** Gettysburg: Mr. G’s ice cream is a must-stop…it is also apparently located in the most haunted of buildings in Gettysburg…an interesting history! *************************************** We have found few places take cross contact very seriously. That being said, my celiac daughter has had very good experiences with both of the below places, which do understand cross contact. Check hours before you go but we consider both of these to be safe places to eat in Gettysburg. Good luck! Kim in PA Mom's Coffee Pot 65 W Middle St Gettysburg, PA 717-398-2736 AND Deliso Pizza 829 Biglerville RD Gettysburg, PA 717-398-2736 ************************* Hi last year my family went to Gettysburg and Hershey park. My teens and I have Celiac disease but my husband eats gluten-free at home and restaurants. At Hershey park we had lunch and dinner at the all gf place we had chicken sandwiches, Pizza, and pretzel bites. It was nice it was all gf no worries and food was good. First time I had pretzel bites hot that I didn't make myself. We are going again this summer. Gettysburg we ate at Deliso we had gf cheesesteaks and hoagie. Great no issues. Mom's coffee pot we had gf breakfast sandwichs great no issues. New Oxford Coffee company we had breakfast and they have gf baked goods we had gf muffins. Great no issues. Aroogas we had wings, ribs, hamburger. I thought it was a little pricey but if you love wings and ribs like my family I would definitely go again they had lots of choices. ****************************************** Went to Hershey Park a few years back. Wife and kids are all Celiac. The restaurants in the hotel on the park property were very accommodating. Sorry I don't remember the hotel's name. One even had GF pancakes with Choc chips for breakfast. ****************************************** We stayed in Hershey last year and visited The Mill http://themillinhershey.com/ for dinner. I found it on one of the gluten free locator apps. It was a fabulous meal. There were a few GF entrees and a GF dessert. The selection wasn't huge but the meal was fantastic. ******************************************************* I’d HIGHLY recommend Piazza Sorrento when you are in Hershey. We eat there every time we are in town, and frankly, it’s almost worth going out of your way to eat there if traveling nearby. Although they are not 100% dedicated GF, they have a huge amount of GF selections and are very careful in the preparation.

You may want to check with them and consider it. ******************************************* I went to Hershey Park last summer with my family. Had a nice experience with their allergy foods, just be sure to know where they are and plan accordingly (we spent a lot of time walking around to find me food). I even bought a meal plan for one of my meals in order to get the drink cup so I could stay hydrated. They didn’t always keep staff at their allergy windows, so sometimes I had to wait quite a while to get something, but it wasn’t bad. I also tried the pretzel nuggets that one of the allergy vendors sold and they were pretty good, although if I remember correctly very salty. More along the lines of the frozen pretzels they sell in the grocery stores than Philadelphia pretzels, but still dough and salt, and that was enough to make me happy. On that trip we stayed somewhere cheap and I can’t remember breakfast, which means I most likely picked around a hotel continental (I don’t eat eggs because I dislike them). I usually pack cereal just to round out the meal. A few years ago we stayed at the Hershey Hotel. Their dining room was extremely accommodating to me and the breakfast I had there was wonderful. They made me my own gluten free waffles with chocolate chips. ************************************************* In Hershey AVOID the Best Western (damp, mold in rooms, soggy carpet in hallway, poor service at the desk). At the amusement park they do a good job with GF meals. Email them ahead of time and get the list of options. Piazza Sorrento (http://www.piazzasorrento.com) does an EXCELLENT job with gluten-free meals. *************************************************** We have eaten many times with our family member who has celiac at Piazza Sorrento in Hershey - family style Italian. Very good gf pasta. We have also been able to find gluten free options in the park - salads, gf pizza, and a quesadilla! ************************************************** *Support summarization of posts, reply to the SENDER not the CELIAC List* ******* To unsubscribe, email: mailto:[log in to unmask] *******
