Great food and service, however, we would have liked to have at least known about the 3% surcharge on credit cards before using it as a payment method. I would recommend having the servers let people know that there is one.

The food here is very good, reasonable and a change of pace from the others in town. It’s a very chill place but the staff is excellent. Sadie is great and we always got great service from her. She is personable and super friendly. Why wait 3 hours for a table across the way when you can enjoy a good meal here.

Both the drinks and food were really good, and we came in towards the end of the night, so a little concerned but not a lot of options were open late during a week night. The bartender was really friendly and the food was fresh and very tasty!

This is a bar. We ordered fancy drinks and both agreed they were not very good. Mexacali Dip I could of ordered more and eaten as my meal. But we decided to go for the Bowl meals and they were awesome. Service fabulous our gal friendly. I'd go again!

A fun stop in you are in downtown Southport. Kaitlyn makes great drinks and the staff is super friendly. Food is good and something more fresh and different than usual bar food.

The service was great, but the rice/salad bowl was terrible. Probably the worst meal I’ve had eating out…ever. Bland, basic and expensive for a few pieces of chicken and rice.

Great spot with some outdoor bar seating on the sidewalk. It was enjoyable just watching some locals share a drink there. Overall, a cool little place to take a break and enjoy America’s original national beverage: Rum. They have some decent rums on the wall, but I hope they are able to get some Hamilton Rums, Denizen, and Probitas.
I didn’t order off the drink menu, but did enjoy a classic three ingredient rum cocktail. Bartenders and staff are very informative and friendly. I appreciate the place’s style as well, as not all rum bars have to be garish, kitschy, and tiki-fied.

It’s really too sad they closed the Joyce to open Royal James. Joyce was by far better. Food and atmosphere was very different @ the Joyce, very Irish with a traditional Irish menu.

I agree with some of the reviewers, the drinks taste like pure mixers. I don’t need it to taste like lighter fluid, just a good balance of the liquor and the mixture. My husband, who thinks all my drinks are strong, was first to point out that it was like sugar water. After we visited, I heard from others that the drinks were pure juice and watered down. You might want to order your liquor on the side. And be sure to taste that shot before you add it to your drink. The food is middle of the road bar food at best. The energy was off - felt like everyone working was on edge. We overhead one of the managers chastising one of the servers.

Had a lot of hope…cool concept and location …..sigh ?. Perhaps they are still working out the kinks. Will continue to visit the Pub (owned by the same folks). Have never had a problem with watered down drinks there.
