Delicious Doesn't Begin to Describe It
What would a scenic Catskills vacation be without some delicious dishes and scrumptious sweets! We’ve got all types of cuisines to tantalize your taste buds at The Kartrite Resort, from a palate-pleasing buffet, aptly named Eat. Eat. Eat., to fine dining at Bixby’s Derby. And to our waterpark-goers; you can grab a quick bite to eat at Surfside Grille. Choose from all kinds of candy and ice cream treats at Pop’s Sweet Shoppe, or take a stroll through The Highline for pastries and, of course, coffee. Nightlife in the mountains comes alive! Check out our chic bar, Harvey’s Wallbanger and choose from a wide variety of spirits and craft beers. Or enjoy a refreshing drink during your indoor waterpark adventure at Bar Mez. Learn more about our seasonal Catskills restaurants and bar options below, and don’t forget, the Kartrite is a cashless resort!

BIXBY’S DERBY
You know that place down the road? The really good one. The restaurant where you walk in and everything just works. The place where the servers and the bartenders know exactly what you’re looking for. And the place where the food challenges you just a bit. And every time you venture just a touch beyond what you’re used to you learn a little bit about yourself. Bixby’s Derby is that place. A little bit funky. A little bit interesting. And a lot of really, really good food. Simply put and perfect. Bixby’s is: Real. Good. Food.

HARVEY’S WALLBANGER
Come on by. Have a drink at the bar. Catch the game on any of the big screens. Order your food to go. You’ll be welcomed with a smile and a great conversation. It’s almost like you could imagine Hemingway sitting here gabbing with his pals about his latest adventure in Venice and Pamplona. Sure the stories are a bit “tall” shall we say. But they’re fun. And so is Harvey’s. Enjoy our signature re-imaginations of classic cocktails or the new inventions of our world class mixologists. Relax for a bit while you wait for your to go food to be ready. Grab a drink between bowling games. Or just meet someone new. Harvey’s Wallbanger is the place.
The Kartrite’s nod to the “great American bar”.

SURFSIDE GRILLE
Imagine the sound of the waves crashing against the shoreline. The seagulls are calling out as they fly overhead. The reeds on the dunes are wafting in the breeze. The sun is hot. Not too hot. Just that perfect summer day that makes you want to stay outside all day long. Now hear the sizzle of the grill just up on the boardwalk. The perfect beachside meal is right there just waiting for you to sidle up and grab a quick bite and a cold drink. You know those times that the best meals are the simplest ones? Ones you can eat while still in your bathing suit? That’s here at Surfside Grille inside the waterpark at The Kartrite.
Snack on poolside hummus and guacamole and chips. Dig into a fresh caesar or chopped salad. Or bite into a healthy summer sandwich wrap. There’s brooklyn style pizza and some amazing burrito bowls. OK, so maybe this isn’t exactly the beachside grille you remember. Actually, it’s better.
Cholev Yisroel sandwiches and salads are available!
