Smoke-free restaurants in or near Gettysburg?

My husband and I will be visiting Gettysburg for three days next week. It will be our first time to the area and we are trying to do our research before we leave home regarding things to see and places to eat. Having a serious allergy to cigarette smoke (and since PA has not yet gone smoke-free), our main concern is finding smoke free dining, or at least restaurants with a separate (walled off) non-smoking area. Can anyone make any recommendations? We will primarily need a nice place for breakfast, a ';lunch'; type establishment, and one night we would like to enjoy fine dining for my husband%26#39;s birthday. Any advice on clean, smoke-free restaurants, and which ones to steer clear of, would be greatly appreciated. We would be willing to drive a reasonable distance from town (say 10 miles) to find a nice place. Many thanks.

Hoss%26#39;s, a regional chain, is smoke free. We go there frequently and have never had a bad experience. They offer a large salad and dessert bar, steaks, and seafood. It%26#39;s not terribly expensive (especially for lunch) and is dark, cool, and you can eat right away! You%26#39;ll find it on Rt 30, on the east side of town between McDonald%26#39;s and Wal-Mart.

Try the Dobbin House for the fancy night. Ask them for a smoke free room. You may have to call ahead. Gettysburg Family Restaurant on 30 across from Walmart has a separate room that is open sometimes. That%26#39;s nonsmoking. Other times they just use the booths along the wall as nonsmoking and let people smoke at the counter. As if smoke doesn%26#39;t move.....

Eastside restaurant has an enclosed non smoking area. Pretty much basic fare/bar food but good. Out by Hoss%26#39;s. Quality Inn Steinwehr is a total smoke free complex. There is a bar there called the mines which is smoke free also, although they serve no food.

I often travel to Gettysburg and I%26#39;ve found many restaurants are non-smoking...it helps that many of the buildings are historic and forbid smoking on the premises. I%26#39;m a smoker but can%26#39;t stand smoking in public venues, especially when dining is involved. Some of my favorite places are The Herr Tavern %26amp; Publick House , The Dobbin House dining rooms %26amp; The Cashtown Inn - all are set in historic buildings and offer fine dining for dinner, plus the Cashtown %26amp; Herr are great for lunch, too - and as far as I%26#39;m aware, smoke-free.

The only restaurants I can think of where smoke may be a problem are O%26#39;Rourke%26#39;s and Dunlap%26#39;s Family Restaurant. At O%26#39;Rourke%26#39;s, you walk through the bar to get to the small non-smoking area, and it%26#39;s all open - you will most likely be affected even back there. If the weather is good, though, they offer outdoor dining, which will help. This is a great lunch place. Dunlap%26#39;s is very open but large - you may not have a problem, but the food isn%26#39;t great, so I would avoid the place altogether.

I want to thank everyone for their input, and will be checking back from time to time between now and our departure. You have been very helpful. Traveling can be stressful for those who have medical issues and food sensitivities...

I probably should have asked in my original post but I look for restaurants which will offer (or will accommodate requests for) plain baked or broiled fish or chicken. I can%26#39;t do fried or heavy sauces. My husband enjoys a nice steak every now and then...being from the shore we usually order seafood when we dine locally, but have found it%26#39;s not the best choice when traveling...

We also like a nice glass of red wine with dinner...it doesn%26#39;t have to be anything fancy. Just an afterthought if anyone would like to comment further on which places serve wine or are BYOB. Thanks again, all comments are appreciated and you%26#39;ve been extremely helpful.

With your dining restrictions, I%26#39;d choose the Dobbin House dining rooms or the Cashtown Inn for dinner - they offer a variety of steak, chicken %26amp; fish dishes you can have just broiled or grilled, without sauces. The Herr Tavern is highly gourmet and they might have a hard time honoring your requests.

it can%26#39;t hurt to call ahead and ask if you are concerned about how they will prepare your food. Olivia%26#39;s on rt 97 is pretty gracious about preparing food for specific diets; you just have to call and ask if it can be done. Most places will cook your meal without sauce if you ask; we haven%26#39;t had a problem with it, even at a place like TGIF.

I would also add that the new restaraunts at Gateway Gettysburg (Old Eagle Grill, Girabaldi%26#39;s and 1863) are all great restaraunts and all smoke free.
