I decided to check this place out since I was in the area with a wife to see what this place was all about. So I learned that on the weekends it's $8 a person to play all of the games. They also serve a variety of great food options as well. What it wasn't a fan of was that we were here a few hours before closing and we were paying the full weekend price regardless which I thought was a bit odd because it's close to closing and we just wanted to try out. I didn't mind paying some money. It's definitely much cheaper to come by on the week day if you're looking to get the best rates. This place has plenty of parking as well, a variety of rooms as well for those that come here with a large group of friends. They have a few vegan items as well. Overall, I thought this place was okay at a very least

He frequently brought up politics, demographics, and "statistics" at work in ways that felt inappropriate and often came across as biased. It wasn't the kind of environment I expected from a workplace. I personally chose not to engage with these conversations because I was there to work, and I try to keep my personal beliefs separate from my workplace. However, being repeatedly exposed to these types of comments from management made the environment feel unprofessional. I also noticed that he would tell us certain employees had quit, but after speaking with those employees, I learned that was not always what happened. This made me feel like there was a lack of honesty and transparency in how situations were handled. One comment that really stuck with me was when he told me and another young female employee that we'd be prettier if we spoke more intelligently and that men would like us more. We are both very young girls, and that comment was incredibly inappropriate and made us uncomfortable. I was also told that if I came in early every day, I would receive a $1 raise. I did exactly that, and I received the raise on my final paycheck. Just a few days later, I was fired. It was confusing to be recognized with a raise and then immediately let go without being given a meaningful explanation. I was told I was being fired because I supposedly had an attitude with a customer. When I asked what had happened, I wasn't given a clear explanation and was simply told they had decided not to continue my employment. I work hard, take my jobs seriously, and I rarely leave negative reviews because I know everyone is trying their best. I didn't contact them afterward because I felt I had already been treated disrespectfully. After the way I was spoken to and the lack of honest communication, I didn't feel another conversation would have changed anything. As a customer, I also found the food to be average, especially for the price. Before I even worked here, my mom and I had cheesecake from the café on a few different occasions, and every time it had a noticeable freezer-burn taste. For the prices they charge, I expected much better quality. Based on my experience as both an employee and a customer, I would encourage people to support another family-owned café instead.

Our family had an amazing time. The food was excellent. We started with a zucchini soup (loved it!). Daughter has a chilled strawberry soup (it was great, like a smoothie w/ cream topped). I had the jammy bird. Fantastic! The jalapeño raspberry jam complimented the candies pecans, turkey & cheddar. Very filling. My wife had the pesto turkey (it was recommended warm). Our daughter did the cheese flat bread. Everyone enjoyed their meal. Teas were excellent. I tried the hot cinnamon spice (my go to didn't disappoint) and tried a recommended Tower of London. Excellent recommendation. My wife enjoyed the Chocolate Chai Supreme and the Tower of London too. We tried a blueberry lemon scone that the three of us shared. Everything is made fresh and in-house and I could tell. Everything was very flavorful. It was a great brunch experience for us. Since we came between "tea times" we were able to meet the owner (was in that day). There was also a special guest there and decided to take the opportunity to get a quick pic w/ the Queen. Loved the owners story (on the front of her menus). Definitely will be going out and have a few friends I know would love it! They have a guest book and noticed people come from all over to visit. I live in Shorewood and didn't realize we had this gem in our back yard. You can tell The Royal Tea Room is a labor of love. We'll be back!

I did not see this message in time so we still Ordered ala carte but here is where my issues come in . Understandable one server things may not be perfect but we received our tea about half full In the teacup. I asked for sugar and a spoon. She took a bit to bring the sugar but not the spoon, I had to ask twice and never did get it. Why would a spoon not automatically be served with tea? Then the food came and we had no forks , I was embarrassed sitting there with my friends as our food got cold and it took forever to get a fork! No refills of tea were given. My food was small and cold except for the toast . It cost $41 which is excessive for what I got . The place is very cute and welcoming but I will Not go back Further, when I addressed these concerns in an email it was ignored

The girls at the front are always super friendly and helpful. Aside from their great food, their specialty coffees are amazing too. They have seasonal flavors available so it's always something new when I visit. My go to is usually avocado toast and steak benedict, but honestly everything is good here. The only thing I noticed is that they don't have lot of omelette options available which was surprising for breakfast place. 4 stars because I was really disappointed at their AI menu for coffees. I feel like it's taking over lot of small businesses, but it's just very disappointing when I stumble upon it myself in person :(
