Royal ExchangeNovember 3, 2014Come in for Kill the Keg every Friday! A select draft beer will be offered for $5 all day until 8pm when the price starts to drop $1 every hour until the keg is gone!
Pretty good beer selection for what's essentially a sports bar, I find it comical every time I get a high end IPA in a bud light glass. Check for the two rotating beer selections by the main doors.- On Tuesdays all about the shrimp tacos, though the pork are really good too. Get a saison or fresh squeezed ipa with the shrimp or a black butte with the pork.
- Todd ChapmanSeptember 10, 2014Great selection of craft beer on tap and friendly service, but they did last call at 9:30 and closed at 10, not the 11:00 4sq had listed. Good spot for a couple of beers.
Laura MoirNovember 9, 2013AWESOME beers on tap. Tons of local breweries and microbrews. My favorite place in the city to grab a beer after work
Ray HartjenOctober 17, 2014Draft beer. Have the bartender recommend a few. Then get a cup of dice from him and start gambling with your crew.
Emma BellMarch 9, 2012Found Em!!! Men in suits to the max!! Get here at 2pm on a thurs and stake out a good spot belly up to the bar ;) Codd bites are scrumptious $5!!
If you're in a rush, the outside to-go stand on Front St offers great sandwiches and salads! Open from 11am-2pm.
Chris WintermeyerJune 29, 2012The French Dip sandwich is freakin' excellent. Try it with pepper jack.
The Royal Exchange is known for sports on TV, and fun folks. But make sure you have the Nachos, with hot sauce, and water!
- We always get the spinach dip with pita chips. So good!
- Marisette PomalesSeptember 15, 2011Rob (bartendar) makes a mean drink... and will defend your honor and act like a 'BF' to scare off all creepy guys. :-) (was his idea, btw)
Paul MabrayFebruary 19, 2013Try the Beer - #hustling and doing a big pitch about next vertical expansion.
Sarah La DueMay 27, 2011In the very back there is the tiniest booth you'll ever sit in. It will make you feel like an overweight claustrophobic.
Happy hour here is awesome. It can get kinda busy sometimes!
Mark DickensonJuly 16, 2011this is another place with a good pub lunch with fast and friendly service.
PaulJune 7, 2014Walked in at 10pm. They told us they were closed. The 4sq page says they are open till 11pm
Gizelle QuintoFebruary 2, 2011Taco Tuesdays: the whole enchilada- 3 tacos, Pacifico pint, and a shot of tequila! $10
One of the best bar food places I've been too. Try anything.

"Great fresh greyhound cocktail. It's deceptively strong and the fresh squeezed grapefruit isn't astringent at all."
