THE REFRESHMENT SALOON

The Refreshment Saloon at the Museum and Visitor Center at Gettysburg National Military Park is modeled after actual refreshment saloons that existed during the Civil War to offer wary soldiers a place to have a meal and a brief respite from the harsh realities of war.

The varied menu includes "Tastes of the Period" and features dishes like beef stew, slippery chicken pot pie and Gettysburg chili served with cornbread. For dessert, don't miss the giant snickerdoodle cookies.

In addition to the period food, the Saloon offers standard fare such as turkey wraps, salads, Angus burgers, hot dogs and pizza as well as a featured soup of the day.
