Royal Tavern
Fri, 27/01/12 – 13:39 | No Comment

Royal Tavern is a fantastic South Philly bar that serves yummy food procured from local vendors.

Vegetarian and vegan-friendly, make sure you order the mayo and malt vinegar dip with any order of fries. So good. So very, very good.

The Tavern definitely sets itself apart from other bars with its food selection. Bar food…well, bar food is usually scary, but the Tavern is here to prove that some bar owners do care about the type of food they are putting in front of you. Dine at the Tavern any night of the week for a relaxing and yum-tastic evening!

Royal Tavern is found at 937 East Passyunk Avenue in South Philadelphia. Get directions here.
