About Royal Standard
The Royal Standard is a pub on Leyfield Rd in Liverpool, serving beers and spirits alongside a menu of pub classics and small plates. Steak, burgers and a mixed grill sit among the hearty plates. Live sport shows on Sky Sports and TNT Sports, and a dartboard gives friends a game to play between rounds. Live music is also part of what goes on at the pub. Dogs are welcome, so owners can bring them along.

Customer Review Summary
Food draws the most praise, with diners singling out the Katsu Curry Fries, a new menu described as fantastic, and a spread of small plates, steak, burgers and salt and pepper chicken that one group of six received fast and correct. Several call the value very good, and friendly, welcoming staff come up repeatedly. Close behind is the relaxed atmosphere, which reviewers say suits both families and groups, along with football on screen, a good beer selection and the beer garden. The caveats are specific. One lunch went badly: an overcooked, fatty steak and a mixed grill with undercooked, greasy sausages and a lumpy peppercorn sauce were both sent back, and the replacements returned with a hard egg and solid chips. The brownies were called generic, one diner said staff did not step in when a loud table disrupted the dining area, and another found the baby change station ripped off the wall. Even so, families mention a christening held upstairs and kids meals they found good value.

“Just feedback...its rough around the edges. Door painted baby change and its been ripped off the wall. Needs good clean & freshen up. But everything else, the food&drink & the service/staff were great”
- Ryan Slater
“Brilliant pub. Always feel looked after when we come here. Ive been both with and without the kids and the atmosphere fits all. The food is nice and reasonably priced (particularly enjoy the Katsu Curry Fries) and whenever we visit we feel welcome. Thanks for the consistently and we look forward to our next visit”
