The Royal is operated by James Hickson, who has a solid hospitality background having learned his trade at well-loved restaurants and gastropubs including St John, Great Queen Street, The Canton Arms and Moro. James is hands-on at the pub, overseeing the relaxed yet lively atmosphere, friendly service and sophisticated food and drink. The kitchen is led by head chef, Andrew Taylor-Gray, who has previously worked at Petersham Nurseries, Hix and The Canton Arms.

The Royal has been included in the Michelin Guide since February 2020 with Bib Gourmand status, which we have maintained ever since.

A welcoming gastropub for locals and visitors alike in St. Leonards-On-Sea and Hastings, low-key and down-to-earth, The Royal occupies an historic corner site right opposite St. Leonards Warrior Square station.

Excellent friendly service. Good short concise menu with a varied set of choices. Excellent medium priced wine list. We enjoyed the food very much. Reasonable price and therefore good value.

We have eaten here many times in the past. On our last visit we had a disappointing meal when the fish was very overcooked and tasteless, however, we were delighted to find that standards are back to the high level they always were. The food was excellent and the service friendly and efficient. It was very busy and hence quite noisy (the waiter misheard my order) and it was at times difficult to hear what my partner was saying and personally I find the decor a bit on the dark side, but overall a great, good value night out.

We had a pleasant visit but were disappointed with the inconsistency of the food. Squid dish very good and tasty. Gurnard, bland and not developed as a dish. The radicchio was just raw and sliced, there was no convincing sauce - more like fish water and the potatoes were meh. Had the radicchio been braised, more of the wonderfulness of this complex veg would've come through. A good, burnt butter sauce - a must with brown shrimp - could've also hidden the other failings and would've brought the dish together. Alternatively or as well as, a tasty, olive oil mash would've given the dish a bit of much-missed richness. That said, we enjoyed having plenty of space around us and not feeling crowded on a cramped table but the soul always quails when there is a time limit to one's stay - making one feel more like a cash cow rather than a participant in one of life's greatest rituals. Even so, we did have enough time to eat at leisure and we will be back for more soon.
