    Our experience was as expected for Sunday Brunch. Was disappointed to see the changes to the bar area, which aren't in keeping with the historic era of the Roycroft. In particular the bar stools, which look like they belong at the Woolworth's lunch counter. We generally prefered to sit in this smaller intimate space for brunch, but it is no longer that with this renovation. Sitting in the main dining room is noisy and crowded and difificult to navigate thru the tables. Overall the service was good and the food choices and extra pricing for bottomless mimosas acceptable. Shout out to Sage our server ~ she was exceptional.

    Portions were good. Silverware/glassware were dirty. Staff was decent. However checking in at the reservation time no one attended to us for an about ten minutes.

    We were overall disappointed. Brought our appetizers and soups at the same time, despite us asking separate. We were not even 1/2 finished with appetizers when main dishes came out, despite us ordering well in advance so we had space. The ribeye was awful. The vegetarian dish was sub par. Our last visits weren’t great and tried to give benefit of the doubt. Wish we didn’t.

    Had a great brunch with friends. The food is always amazing, and they change it up every time, with some things staying the same. The service was fantastic, and we really enjoyed our time. We will continue to come back as long as they keep having it!

    I have frequented brunch at the Roycroft very often and I have loved it in the past. Today was the first time I have returned since the updates to the menu and I was overall very disappointed. The overall selection of food and options have decreased plus nice additions in each section like various cheese options and toppings for the smoked salmon (except capers & lemon) have disappeared. The whole brunch seems to have decreased in size. The brunch also used to include a mimosa, poinsettia, or Bloody Mary in the price but now it’s now a separate fee. I do understand prices rise and am happy to pay the difference for rising costs but the past food experience is no more. The staff however are wonderful as usual and do an amazing job!

    The Roycroft is timeless and one of our favorites! Just an exquisite dining experience all around, from the ambiance to the service to the delicious entrees that were prepared and set before us. Thank you once again for your amazing hospitality!

    The food was mediocre, not nearly the quality you'd expect for the price. We're huge fans of the Arts-and-Crafts movement, and we love the Inn; it's beautiful. The waitresses were smilingly charming and competent. But the food's got to be better for the prices they charge.
