POSITIONED IN THE HEART OF LEICHHARDT, THE ROYAL HAS BEEN A COMMUNITY ICON & DESTINATION PUB SINCE 1886.

The Royal joined the W. Short Hotel Group portfolio in July 2013. Since the acquisition, the family owned Group has completed stage 1 of the refurbishment project with the opening of The Royal Botanical bar and balcony, dining and terrace on level 1.

Having been at the heart of the Leichhardt hospitality scene for over 125 years, W. Short Hotel Group has made sure that the community remain at the core of the pub and who we are. By giving the venue a fresh new look, a fantastic new menu and a wider selection in the bars, the Royal is breathing new life back into the pub scene on Norton Street as well as the hospitality scene in the Inner West as a whole.
