Hunters Lodge

Foams, flambé and fusion food are all fine and dandy from time to time.

There are other times when only tried and tested traditional dishes will really hit the spot.

Fight off winter chills by taking comfort in today’s Big Deal on a meal for two at Hunters Lodge in the Ayrshire village of Crosshill.

A homely, traditional Scottish bar and restaurant, Hunters Lodge re-opened under new management last year and are quickly attracting a loyal clientele.

They describe their dishes as ‘modern versions of those traditional homemade Scottish dishes you all know and love’. 

The kitchen team skilfully blends modern techniques and seasonal Scottish ingredients with classic Scottish recipes. 

Try them with today’s Big Deal from Hunters Lodge.

The Hunters Lodge has been quick to pick up enthusiastic reviews after re-opening. This one is from TripAdvisor:

‘Amazing food, great service. Called in for an evening meal as we heard this is a great family pub. Great value for money… The drinks were reasonably priced and there was a wide range to choose from. We were checked back after each course and felt that the service was attentive. The staff were friendly and very informative about the food. They even have a special kids’ menu with their own colouring-in page and crayons. The portions were very generous and the food was piping hot. Overall, we will be back.’
