what does sittyated grog-shop mean?

This phrase is on the first page of Robert-Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island". I believe sittyated is just the accent form of situated. The phrase would then mean that the grog shop is in a pleasantly situated location I.E. close to the customer who makes the statement. Grog is an alcoholic drink that is made by mixing several different Alcoholic Beverages in a big pot, usually other abnormal ingredients are added as well. So a grog shop is basically a bar for pirates.

What else can I help you with?
