Went here for lunch today - I loved the vibe of the place it’s very old world glam. Service and greeting from the bar staff was good, prompt table service & food delivered quickly. In regards to the dishes I had the lentil and haloumi salad ($22) and my mate had the beef ribs ($26) both pictured. The beef ribs were cooked to perfection and falling off the bone - trimmings were well cooked. The salad was quite good, haloumi and lentils cooked well - only thing I will say is it needed a squirt of lemon juice to lift the whole dish other than that I couldn’t fault it. Overall I think it’s a nice place to have lunch or dinner, the inside is quite charming and I liked the whole experience. Always hungry thumbs up for this one.

It's another big old pub that I've driven past hundreds of times. situated on Henley Beach Road opposite Little Canton and just down from the Foodland, there's plenty of parking out the back with a drive through bottle shop, pokies, live music , pokies and all the trimmings.
Inside there's a slightly saggy Art Deco vibe going on in a big eating space with plenty of tables. There's a function room upstairs and the night we were there it was being used by a Buck's Night, but it's clearly well insulated because not a peep interrupted our meal.
Very friendly staff took our orders and it all soon arrived. There were three of us.
Ordered Cheesy Garlic Bread, a grazing platter and a beef schnitzel with gravy plus a round of drinks - a soft drink, a juice and a cider.
Bread rolls arrived and were fresh and tasty. The grazing platter had two well packed beef sliders, about a dozen Buffalo wings and two arancini. Along with the garlic bread this was shared between 19 year old son and his mum who also helped herself to a fair bit of salad from my schnitzel plate.
The schnitzel arrived with chips, salad and (how civilised!) gravy in a separate jug
Everything was perfectly acceptable and, while not the greatest food I've eaten lately (or even the greatest pub food) it tasted fine and it filled us up and left us happy.
Cost was just North of $70 for the three of us which, to be frank, seemed a little high for what we got.
But it was all firmly in the "pretty good" range.
A family outing for lunch on a Sunday - 20 folks. Plentiful parking caters well for the older folks whilst internally, a nice refined decor, with a 1920's 'deco' twist. Friendly enough staff and reasonable range, also suited to folks on a pension. I ordered atlantic salmon with bok choy, mushrooms and soy. I still remember the first bite of the mushroom, that just melted - a delight. A somewhat 'light' meal that I supplemented with some of the wifes pizza to assist my running training. Good venue that caters well for large groups.
I came here for a Christmas function and was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the steak and it was beautiful! Perfectly cooked served with delicious sides of potato bake and beans. Flavours, cooking and seasoning all on point.

I don't go to pubs a great deal and the experience of the Hotel Royal on Henley Beach Road was very positive. Clean modern interior with plenty of casual seating in the bar area next to the Bistro. Right from the start the service was spot on with a friendly greeting, explanation about the menu if we were interested in eating there, and the offer of ice cold water - wonderful on a 40 degree day!
We chose to order in the bar, and the lamb salad and Caesar salad were both fresh and good size serves - excellent value for money. The area overlooking Henley Beach Road was relaxing with a choice of stools or bucket lounge seats and the volume of the cricket and the music was just right. A very pleasant experience overall.
Summary: Excellent customer service - many could learn from the staff member who served us!. Food was fresh, served quickly and at $18 were good value. Great menu choices including burgers, pizzas and standards like fish and steak just to name a few. Easy parking in Jervois Street or at the back of the Hotel. An unpretentious place with a lot to offer. Worth a try? Absolutely - even if hotels are not what you might normally consider this one is worth a go.
A surprise visit to Hotel Royal and I was not disappointed. A welcoming atmosphere and a lovely fireplace on a windy and cold evening. I opted for a beef burger. It was well presented and pretty tasty. I wouldn't mind giving it another go.
Revisit to a past regular haunt. This hotel use to be our regular haunt when we lived in the area, 9 years ago.
We decided to make a return visit, to see how things have changed. They have since renovated and it looks pretty "retro" now. Quick service and Nice food.
We both had a schnitzel, with salad and chips, as part of a "Living Social" voucher. Served quickly and everything was hot and tasty.
Will definitely make the effort to go back again!
This hotel looks a lot different back when I use to visit. Food is good. Dessert was great. Service was friendly, but can be better. Will be back.
No complaints. Good, quick service procedure. Food quite good. Attracts a crowd, so book beforehand.
Nice restaurant. They have recently changed the menu and it is quite good.
The system for ordering food is good too - order and pay at the bar, rather than waiting for the bill.
The service is good, the staff are friendly and the meals are very good. The steaks are great on Medium with mushroom sauce as well.
The roast lamb medallions are great too.
The stir fry is a little weird, and wasn't really that hot either.
They have a quiz night on Mondays too which is great.
Tap beer selection is quite good, though I have twice ordered a stubbie of light beer, and both times the beer was out of date.
Great pub food. Good fish and chips and an open fire on a cold wet Friday night in Adelaide. Would definitely come back to the Hotel Royal again.
Chicken risotto was super.
This place has been refurbished and the food is no exception - great menu, excellent food and good sized serves
Nice and modern.. Many years ago, I remember frequenting the Royal Hotel for a cheap schnitzel and salad bar meal as an occasional lunch or dinner option.
These days, the whole place has been newly renovated, and actually done quite well. The Royal has a modern and comfortable feel to it, and the menu has been upgraded to include a few more restaurant-type selections.
The seafood platter is particularly good, as is the salt and pepper squid & oysters kilpatrick.
Service is usually quite good, and the staff are friendly and helpful towards their customers. Great for either lunch or dinner, the Royal is definitely one of my favourite local eateries.
Really good S&P squid. Love the renovations too.
A range of beautiful and very appetising food pictures quickly grabbed our attention and took us out towards the western side of Adelaide to the Hotel Royal where the local pub is no longer synonymous with commonly referred to ‘pub food’. Here in Torrensville the good ol’ local that’s been family run for 36 years is spicing things up and pushing the boundaries in hotel dining. Recently refurbished, the dining room is a neat, comfortable setting with trendy furniture and features beautifully set off in a modern, unimposing colour theme. The creative flair of the relatively new team in charge seems to have reached a broad audience; young couples, older couples, friendly catch ups and a kids birthday surrounded us and every one was well catered for with vegetarian, gluten free and kids meal options. The classics are still on the menu, but Hotel Royal is really pushing the envelope to deliver unique and innovative menu items that rival fine dining. With more t
