Discovering Gettysburg’s Foodie Side with Savor Gettysburg Food Tours

Savor Gettysburg Food Tours in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania

For over 150 years, Gettysburg has been primarily known for one thing: war. Millions flock every year to this small Adams County borough to learn about one of the Civil War’s most important battles through battlefield tours , museums , and even ghost tours . Until recently, the food scene was comprised of little more than chain restaurants and smorgasbords that provided sustenance, but little worth remembering. In recent years, however, this has begun to change.

Over the last two years, one of the biggest drivers of the expansion of culinary delights in Gettysburg is Lori Korczyk, founder of Savor Gettysburg Food Tours. Korczyk first visited Gettysburg in 2002 and fell in love with the small-town charm and opportunities available in the city. Savor Gettysburg grew out of her desire to keep people coming back to Gettysburg again and again, especially after the 150th anniversary celebrations in 2013.

Lori Korczyk, owner and tour guide for Savor Gettysburg Food Tours

Tours with Savor Gettysburg take visitors through some of the downtown area’s best food, drink, and dessert options available in downtown Gettysburg. At each stop, the tour offers a sampling of one of the establishment’s specialities, along with a brief history of the restaurant and what it adds to the borough’s culinary scene. Sprinkled throughout the tour, guides offer a bit of history about this historic town with a focus on how the battle and its aftermath affected the citizens of Gettysburg.

My two favorite stops along the tour were Kaitlyn’s Cafe on the Square and Hauser Estate Winery. At Kaitlyn’s I had two sandwiches that were very delicious: their corned beef reuben and the oven roasted turkey. To be perfectly honest, I’ve never had a reuben that I loved, and I left wishing I could have more of theirs. At Hauser, I had the chance to try a variety of their locally-produced Jack’s Hard Cider. I was surprised how much better and fresher their cider tasted compared to some of the larger cideries.

Hauser Estate Winery in downtown Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

Savor Gettysburg offers two tour options for those looking to experience the tastes of Gettysburg. The Historic Downtown Four Tour is the original tour offered by Korczyk and features seven stops over three hours. While the stops can vary from time to time based on availability, there is always a stop at a winery and a dessert destination included in the itinerary. All the other stops offer a sampling of some of the restaurants’ most popular dishes. While the dishes are not full-size, there is enough food on the tour to satisfy any appetite.

One Lincoln Food and Spirits Gettysburg PA

The second tour that Savor Gettysburg offers is the Wine, Cider, and Dine Tour. This tour focuses on the region’s great wines and ciders, with a stop at a downtown restaurant for a bite to eat. The wines in Gettysburg are all produced in the surrounding communities, with many of the wines and ciders using locally-grown fruits. If you like wine or cider, but have never had a chance to try those made in Adams County, this tour is a great chance to find your favorites.

Mr. G's Ice Cream on Savor Gettysburg Food Tours, Pennsylvania

Korczyk recommends taking a food tour as early as possible during your stay in Gettysburg, as this gives you a chance to go back for a full meal at some of your favorite establishments using the coupons provided on your tour, a recommendation that I would definitely agree with. However, whether you take the tour at the beginning, middle, or end of your vacation, a tour with Savor Gettysburg is a great way to try the many highlights of Gettysburg’s burgeoning food scene.

We started about 15 min late which I felt was ridiculous…but this made the guide talk even faster trying to cram stuff in. He walked really fast and wasn’t interested in making this a ghost tour, just wanted to get it over with. Would never do this tour again or refer anyone to it. Yuck.

More: Best Driving Vacations 2024: Explore the Northern Shore of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula

Today's installment is Part 2 of 4 destination packages from Columbus Monthly's annual travel guide. We hope you enjoy.

Traveling to Gettysburg and Antietam

Not every traveler is a history buff. But a visit to Gettysburg, site of one of the most iconic and bloody battles of the Civil War, should probably be on every American’s bucket list. 

From Columbus, the drive takes a bit more than six hours. And a two- or three-day visit to the Pennsylvania landmark can easily include several other noteworthy sites along the way, including another important Civil War battlefield, the fort where George Washington suffered his most humiliating defeat and the memorial where the first Americans to fight back during 9/11 are commemorated. 

In addition to being a major historic site, Gettysburg is also a lovely small town adept at catering to the nearly 1 million visitors who arrive each year. Even visitors who never set foot in the Gettysburg National Military Park would find plenty to do. Town streets are packed with shopping, dining, breweries and wineries, hotels and inns, galleries and museums. But the battlefield should definitely be on the to-do list. 

More than 165,000 Union and Confederate soldiers clashed from July 1-3, 1863. The largest battle ever fought on this continent resulted in more than 51,000 casualties — and turned the tide of the war in favor of the Union. The battlefield Museum and Visitors Center includes 12 separate galleries, many interactive exhibits and thousands of artifacts on display. Visitors can also experience the Gettysburg Cyclorama, a painting in-the-round created in the 1880s that tells the story of the battle and is, itself, a magnificent piece of history. 

Plenty can also be discovered on a self-guided auto tour. The 6,000-acre battlefield is crossed by several small roads with plenty of places to pull off and explore the many monuments and markers that were erected in the decades after the battle. 

Bus tours are available from the visitor center. But the best way to tour the battlefield may be with a licensed guide in your own vehicle. Guides are happy to customize tours based on visitors’ interests and knowledge. 

Although the three-day Battle of Gettysburg was the bloodiest battle of the Civil War, Antietam, near the village of Sharpsburg, Maryland, was the site of the war’s bloodiest single day — and the bloodiest day in American history, with some 23,000 casualties. Antietam National Battlefield is just an hour’s drive from Gettysburg, making it a logical stop for history-lovers passing through, or an easy daytrip for travelers extending their stay in the Pennsylvania town. 

Like Gettysburg, Antietam is dotted with monuments honoring the military units and men who served there. One of the most curious is a Brobdingnagian marker commemorating the service of a young commissary sergeant who went on to become President William McKinley. The monument celebrates McKinley’s efforts at bringing coffee and hot food to Union troops on the front lines. 

No, really. 

But if I were on the front, tired and hungry, I would certainly have welcomed and appreciated Sgt. Billy’s offerings. (Come to think of it, this might actually be the most noble act a future president has ever performed.) 

Fort Necessity National Battlefield

Southwestern Pennsylvania also hosts two other important historic sites along the route from central Ohio. Fort Necessity National Battlefield near Farmington, Pennsylvania, is a small historic site featuring a museum and the recreated fort where George Washington, as a very young lieutenant colonel, led a unit of British colonial troops to a humiliating defeat at the hands of the French in 1754. Though discouraged, Washington, of course, persevered, having much better luck decades later in the American Revolution. 

Few Americans who remember Sept. 11, 2001, can visit the Flight 93 National Memorial near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, and not get a bit emotional. The memorial tells the story of the terrorist attacks on the United States that day and of the passengers on United Flight 93 who gave their lives fighting back against their hijackers, preventing their plane from being used as a weapon against another prominent target, possibly the U.S. Capitol. 

The memorial marks the site where the plane hit the ground, killing all aboard. In addition to a museum, the site features several trails, including the Trail of Remembrance along the final flight path. Also at the memorial is the Tower of Voices, a 93-foot-tall structure containing 40 large wind chimes, each tuned to a separate and distinct tone of its own — a haunting and fitting way to remember the 40 passengers and crew of Flight 93 and a bit of history many of us lived through ourselves. 

Where to Stay When Visiting Gettysburg

Gettysburg offers a wide variety of lodging options. The Gettysburg Hotel (est. 1797) is a historic property at the heart of downtown with rates from $118 per night. For a cozier stay, consider the Brafferton Inn , with rooms beginning around $110 per night, or Battlefield Bed and Breakfast in a restored 1810 farmhouse, with rooms beginning around $210 per night. hotelgettysburg.com , brafferton.com , gettysburgbattlefield.com
