Cutty Sark Lodge has an on-site restaurant called The Galley Bistro, that overlooks the swimming pool and lake. For those not wanting the hassle of bringing up all their groceries to self-cater there is also the Crispy Fresh Shop located near the restaurant. For guests convenience you are able to pre-order your groceries which will be delivered to your suites. Rats Bar is adjacent to the main hotel and is opened upon request.
