New to Gettysburg: Crepes and Smoothies
By Sarah Laud, Features Editor
College students eating the same thing every day can get boring. Luckily, Gettysburg has welcomed new businesses and restaurants to town since the end of last semester. These two new establishments may curb (at least some of) your cravings!
Gettysburg has plenty of ice cream shops. What it doesn’t have is an authentic creperie…until now! The Cottage Creperie, located at 33 Steinwehr Avenue serves sweet and savory crepes, but also gourmet coffee, baked goods, and local ice cream.

According to reporting from Gettysburg Connection, the owner wanted to keep the tradition of serving ice cream from the cottage-style building while adding her own twist. For diners who do not want something sweet, savory crepes are also available which have been popular since the opening of the Creperie.
All produce, dairy, and protein products are from local vendors as well as the artwork used for decor. Look for the yellow and red cottage or follow the smell of freshly baked crepes down the road!
The Cottage Creperie is open for breakfast, brunch, and lunch. Their hours are:
Thursday: 8 a.m. – 3 p.m.
Friday: 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Saturday: 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Sunday: 8 a.m. – 3 p.m.
Monday: Closed
Tuesday: Closed
Wednesday: 8 a.m. – 3 p.m.
After the Dive closed last year, students looking to find healthy dining options can seek out this new business. Fresh fruit and vegetables are available to college students who may not typically have the opportunity to enjoy them.
Located at 48 York S, the Gettysburg Smoothie Co. is serving post-work-out and healthy smoothies. Do you miss smoothie bowls from home? They have those too and you can build your own!
