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.

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.

Such an amazing roast, honestly one of the best roasts I’ve had. Also the goat pie was amazing and the crispiest roasts potatoes ever! So good! Our waitress was so lovely and attentive. The ‘manager looking man’ was so rude to us but didn’t deter from the amazing service from our waitress x

Delicious Sunday lunch, served promptly and hot, all the trimmings and great wine selection too. Great atmosphere with wood burner going and relaxed chatter. Service was also great, very appreciated. Will definitely return and highly recommend.

Fantastic restaurant, lovely setting right next to the station. Very friendly and helpful team. Cosy atmosphere. We did find the lunch menu somewhat. limited in choice, However the food we both had was delicious. We didn’t have any drinks on this occasion as we were both driving. Lovely to have it open at lunchtime.

The Manzo di Pozza, daal and fried polenta were really good but the lamb neck was tough and I didn't love the Malbec. Would definitely visit again though. Nice atmosphere for low key NYE. Thanks to the staff.
