What People Are Saying About Royal Tavern

In Short
The atmosphere is laid-back, with a deep-red walled, evening-only, pub with local brews and an alt-rock jukebox, opened by the owners of the Khyber. They're serious about bar grub here: Chicken wings are better than average, as are big salads. Standout sandwiches include a delicious duck club with cherry relish, a veggie concoction of spinach, goat cheese and pine nuts, and a popular brisket with cheddar with extra fries.

The chicken sandwich was the best ever! Can't wait to have it again. Great service too! We had walked around the city for hours and were so thirsty, the server did not mind pouring us pint after pint of water(free). We weren't in the mood for booze as we had a few mile walk back home.

they have the BEST mimosas. they change the flavor all the time. melon and strawberry were both amazing. also the website's menus are out of date but it gives you a good idea of what type of food they have (my favorite things aren't on there: the eggs benedict, tater tot scramble) the hummus trio? perfection. i should become president of this place's fan club. love it.

This bar has consistently had good food for years. From the homemade mac and cheese to the vegan BLT. Good atmosphere and the music in the juke box is great.
