Crown Republic Gastropub Reinvents Classic Comfort Food With a Modern Twist

The chef at Crown Republic Gastropub crafts everything from scratch, carefully balancing contemporary flair and classic comfort food. The culinary creativity shines through in every dish and drink, from the small plates and artisan toasts that headline the dinner menu to the specialty cocktails flowing from the bar.

The eatery just debuted in June, so you still have time to be among its first guests. Start with a slice of ciabatta toast loaded with honey-infused goat cheese, walnut tapenade, and roasted beets or an inventive starter such as the onion soup dumplings. Then devour a plate of fresh pasta, like the pappardelle bolognese, or an entree such as the seared salmon with beet romesco or the hanger steak with golden raisin chimichurri. Save some room for a specialty treat from Fat Ben's Bakery, like a chocolate chip cookie sandwich stuffed with vanilla gelato.
