<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi, just returned from a wonderful sun-soaked week in NC at the Oak Island beaches. I received several suggestions from other listmates for GF resources which I'll include below. Although we planned to go out to eat, at the recommended places, we decided to eat in all week because the local grocery store, Lowe's, had a good supply of GF foods for our needs. We also found a health food store in Southport that carried a few good items. To summarize: Lowe's grocery store (on right hand side Long Beach Road before going onto the island): Great supply of GF items which were stocked in the same aisle as the like regular food. You can go online and see their selection, as well as order your groceries online so they are ready for bagged and ready for pickup when you arrive at the store. <http://www.lowesfoods.com > On the island there is a restaurant on the Ocean Crest Pier, Island Way Restaurant and Bar, that sits on the beach with a great view of the ocean. Although we didn't eat there, we had a great conversation with the staff and manager and they are very aware of gluten-free needs and how to provide for them. I'd feel very comfortable eating there and the locals highly recommended their food. Ph. # 910-278-7770 There is a restaurant in downtown Southport (about 20 min away) called The Pharmacy that was recommended by two people. <http://www.southporttimes.com/pharmacy.html> for phone number and directions. It was suggested to call ahead and make reservations, as well as to make them aware of GF needs. Live Oak Nutrition is a health food store in Southport on 114 E. Nash Street that carries a few GF items, including Kinnikinnick donuts and pizza crusts, George's English muffins, and bags of nuts/snacks that do not have any peanuts listed on their ingredients. This was real find for us since I'm allergic to peanuts. Ph # 910-457-0550. For nearby Myrtle Beach, a restaurant called Collector's Cafe was recommended. No GF menu but they were able to accommodate for GF needs. <http://www.collectorscafeandgallery.com/ > Thanks for all the help!
