People with celiac disease (gluten intolerance) often have difficulty finding a suitable establishment when they go on vacation.
If you’d like to enjoy a peaceful holiday on the Charente coast at a 4-star campsite on the Ile de Ré, make a note in your address book of these two Ile de Ré restaurants offering gluten-free dishes.
The Beetle
Recommended by several travel guides, La Coccinelle’s sober, elegant decor is a real winner. In the dining room or on the terrace, the owners invite visitors to savor dishes prepared with seasonal produce. From a salad with raw vegetables and quinoa to a delicious crumble with figs, mirabelle plums and acacia honey, gluten-free dishes are many and varied. They are clearly indicated on the menu, as are gluten-free and lactose-free dishes.
The house specialty: gluten-free fruit or vegetable tarts, which can be ordered in advance and included in the catering service if you’re organizing a personal or professional event (birthday, wedding, christening, conference, product launch, cocktail party…).
Address: 16 bis avenue du Général de Gaule, 17410 Saint Martin-de-Ré.

Open all year round, this little restaurant awaits you in a warm, rustic atmosphere. The Pot d’Etain team invites visitors to discover local products such as Loix goat’s cheese. It offers gluten-free cuisine, except for pancakes.
Address: 19 rue Jean Jaurès, 17410 Saint-Martin-de-Ré.
