The Otago Central Rail Trail passes through small rural settlements where cafés, country pubs and local eateries offer opportunities to stop for refreshments and meals. You can enjoy a traditional country pub lunch at Chatto Creek Hotel, take a coffee break in Ranfurly or visit Waipiata Country Hotel, which is known for its generously sized pies. However, food outlets can be limited in smaller settlements, and opening hours may vary depending on the season and day of the week. It is a good idea to plan your lunch stops in advance, carry snacks and bring enough water for each day's ride. Your tour includes three breakfasts and two dinners, so check your daily arrangements and budget for any additional meals, café stops and drinks.
