Our experience was as expected for Sunday Brunch. Was disappointed to see the changes to the bar area, which aren't in keeping with the historic era of the Roycroft. In particular the bar stools, which look like they belong at the Woolworth's lunch counter. We generally prefered to sit in this smaller intimate space for brunch, but it is no longer that with this renovation. Sitting in the main dining room is noisy and crowded and difificult to navigate thru the tables. Overall the service was good and the food choices and extra pricing for bottomless mimosas acceptable. Shout out to Sage our server ~ she was exceptional.
