Getting ready for another classic Sunday at the Royal with our beloved Small Plates Roast!

We just wanted to say to those of you, and there are many, who are still ordering a table creaking feast of a roast even when the sun is beating down on the garden: you are basically heroes.

And if you're one of those who thinks its clinically insane to eat a massive roast when its above 16 degrees outside, we have you covered too, with lighter mains and sharing options on our new Sunday menu!
