Also, Royal Oak has been serving food for a few short weeks. They are still working out the kinks, as does any new bar. As far as feeling like you didn't fit in, I have been to Royal Oak at least ten times since it has been open and certainly don't fit the Midtown/ Washington Avenue profile — and I've had no problem with service.

It seems like you had a bad experience, probably came in right after a rush. I would give it another shot. But if you're looking for the next Catbirds, Royal Oak isn't for you. Royal Oak is bringing a different environment (that has been needed) to our lovely Montrose neighborhood. The originals will always be longtime favorites, but we should welcome newer and classier establishments.

Mistakes happen: No business is perfect. But it's very telling to see how a business reacts to a mistake. Royal Oak's indifferent approach speaks volumes about their attitude toward their customers, and explains in advance why they won't be around at the end of the year.
