The Bridge Hotel restaurant – The Green Stag – which is open to the public in the evenings from 18:30 – 22:00, specializes in traditional seafood and game using fresh produce straight from the hills and the sea

The restaurant doesn’t believe in trendy ingredients and fusion cooking. Here its back to the good old-fashioned hearty fares, served absolutely unembellished. Since Scotland is fortunate enough to be at the source of the best produce, the hotel reflects this in their portions and prices. Rather than expand their recipes with additional tastes and flavours, they try to improve their dishes by paying the local raw ingredients justice through getting the best out of the actual product itself. On the menu, dishes include consommee of red deer, lobster bisque with cognac, emincee of roe deer Zurichoise, fillet of beef stroganoff, hare pate, red deer pate, red deer stag steaks and chops, Caithness fillet of beef with béarnaise sauce, Helmsdale crab claws and Scrabster seabass with samphire. The more informal Lounge Bar serves various home made soups, red deer goulash and ragout, smoked salmon sandwiches and assorted Bridge Hotel special desserts like Highland Heaven & frozen honey & cognac cream.
