I had to go back later to get food because the grits had about 20 minutes more to cook. I was disappointed because that should have been started so it would be ready when you open or shortly thereafter when your breakfast rush shows up. I went back later for food although I had waited until after opening time to get breakfast. When I went back, I got the fish and grits. The food was nice and hot. The fish was cooked very well with a nice crisp in it. Although it is served right on top of the grits, it does not get soggy. The grits was okay but the fish was very good. Different kinds of seasons are used to flavor the grits. It may fit some people‘s taste buds very well, but for mine it was a weird flavor for grits.
The employees were very, very nice, friendly, and approachable. They were friendly, and so the service was good. The one thing that really bothered me is the pricing. I was given a copy of a menu that morning, and when I went back to get food. The same menu was displayed on top of the counter. When my fish and grits was rang up, it came up four dollars more than what was posted on the menu. When I inquired, I was notified that the prices had changed. And I was told that the online prices are the most up-to-date. If that is your case, as a business owner, the prices that are displayed should immediately be changed as well. Especially since your display is a paper menu slid into a plastic standup frame. That’s easily changeable. Always be forthcoming with your guests.
I had haven’t gone back since that initial time. I would not have paid that much for the fish and grits if it was displayed and I knew I only was getting was a singe piece of fish (not a large piece; 1piece) with grits and nothing to give it that wow factor! No eggs or toast like others places give and for a lower...
Read moreFYI the place is in the Tu Plaza Marketplace but the GPS won't tell you that. I saw this come up on Google for the first time for breakfast places in Winter Haven. After looking at the menu and seeing waffles, I figured i would give it a try. I had never been to Tu Marketplace before, but I was surprised by what was there and the Royal Breakfast Bar was tucked within it. The lady who served me was excellent. Their eggs are kind of a different style but they were very good. Nothing fancy, which is what I like. Aside from Big Tom's, this was one of the only places I've seen waffles available. I recommend you try it out. It felt like I was a little out of my comfort zone going into the Marketplace, but I was impressed and surprised. They have a small place to sit in front of the area or you can always get take out. It is right next to Sal's Pizza there. I recommend you give the Royal...
Read moreDont let my rating fool you, the service and atmosphere is almost there! They are just getting their restaurant up and running and serving right out of the kitchen! Their $5 pancakes , shrimp and grits and chicken and waffles are the BEST we have ever had. Anywhere else!! Nothing beats it . They are going to have an event space, and cute little eat in area. The vision is there! They only have between 1-3 people working so service is lacking but that’s not their fault, they are starting up again, I’m sure once they officially open to the public that will no longer be an issue! I’ll be back again… especially for...
