PennyRoyal is a 21+ bar tucked into the Palladian Hotel lobby. Staff is awesome, drinks are good, but the space is cold (like, keep your coat on the entire time chilly). Black Hole Sun is a penicillin rif with splash of black squid ink that creates dramatic presentation and really subtle savory hint. Ready or Not is usually made with Beefeater but since I'm not a fan, the friendly server was happy to sub it out- yum! They share a kitchen with the other restaurant on property and the menu is pretty similar We split a bunch of plates: oysters, truffle fries, local greens, and the scallop entree were all good. Wasn't a fan of the lox (real fishy) or the cornbread (just meh). Good option if you are staying at the hotel.

The Service is good But the food not so good the bartenders make the best drinkIf you really want just to get a quick quick drink and hang out for a little bit. This is the place. My four-star is for the customer service and my bartender.

In town attending a conference, we couldn't find anywhere that could seat 11 and be able to give us separate checks for our expense reports. Jon, the bartender was great. They had open sitting outside that was able to seat our whole party. Food was amazing, I had shrimp risotto and street corn. The street corn was amazing. The risotto was really good, the shrimp was nothing special. If I were to reorder, I would not add the shrimp next time. My coworkers got the steak which was amazing. It had a chimichurri type sauce on it. It was really well seasoned and melted in your mouth. Overall the experience was great.

This is a convenient place for bites before a show at the Moore Theater. The ambience is a typical small bar. I believe the food is prepared in conjunction with the Shaker and Spear restaurant located next door. This place can get a bit busy for the weekends, but the service is good. The food is also tasty.

Last time I visited Seattle, my stay at the Palladian did not coincidence with Pennyroyal hours of operation, so I came back during my next trip. It was absolutely fabulous, great vibe and the ginger lemon cocktail was to die for. Great recommendation from the fantastic bartender. Thank y'all!

We had a good time before a show at Moore Theater, but we were hoping for Shaker and Spear (which was closed for a private event). We wandered in and found a table, although it was pretty busy for a Wednesday night. The drinks were delicious but the food was incredibly overpriced, and we were mostly ignored by waitstaff which isn't a problem but also made the experience last a longer time than necessary. If you don't mind a "meh" time, this isn't bad (and also the drinks were delicious so if you just want a cocktail bar, 5 stars!).

Some friends and I were planning to get dinner at Shaker & Spear but it was going to be an hour wait for a table on a Tuesday but instead we were able to get the same menu at their bar next door: Pennyroyal. So we did that and there was no wait at all.I ordered the chargrilled burger ($16) and upgraded to the truffle parmesan fries ($2 extra) and let me tell you: totally worth the extra cost! Fries are my kryptonite and these are some of the best fries I've had in a while. The burger itself was already really good with all the bacon and the chargrilled patty but the fries took it over the top. I'm definitely glad I got this burger and I'd get it over and over again.For drinks I ordered the old fashioned ($11) which was slightly sweet compared to other old fashioneds I've had and not bad at all. I liked it a lot and ended up ordering it again. Then my party of three shared the "initiation's over, time to join the club" drink ($36) that serves 2-4 people. It's also on the sweeter side but with these flaming shareable drinks they tend to be on the sweeter side to hide all the strong alcohol.Our waitress was also great! My friend asked her if she'd recommend the burger or the pork chop more and she went on and on about the pork chop and I thought it was so cool! He did get the pork chop and really liked it. This was a cool bar and I'd love to come back!

Dined here before a show at The Moore theater. The food is over priced and mediocre. My French 75 was made with old, flat Prosecco - zero bubbles. We ordered the crab/shrimp Louie which was mostly greens and the smash burger which was completely charred and tasted burnt. I asked for extra pickles on the burger and the waiter said the table next to us said hold the pickles so no problem to add extra pickles. When we received the bill there was a $2.00 charge for aioli. I told the waiter I did not order aioli and he said the chef made him charge extra for the pickles (4 small slices) and that is how he had to add it to the bill. I told him he should have told me it was going to cost an additional $2. We won't go back as there are so many better places to eat in Seattle.

I don't like writing negative reviews but I would not go back there again. Save your money. Better service at a drive bar.The atmosphere is nice, however the the server we had completed ignored us. There was a large table next to us and two other smaller tables. In other words, the bar wasn't busy. The larger table looked like a bunch of "tech guys" and the server was very attentive to them because they probably were going to leave a bigger tip. I thought it was rude. We waited awhile before someone even came over to get us waters or acknowledge us. We couldn't even get the server's attention to close out our tab ( we only had one drink each) so went to the bar and asked them to charge the room.
