Royal Palm Place contains about twenty restaurants. My favorite is Twenty-Twenty, but as they weren't open for lunch we ended up at Biergarten where I had a Veal Schnitzel that was exceptionally good and my partner had a Biergarten Burger that he really enjoyed. I've been to a number of other places here too. All of them have proved to be very good with polite friendly service.

I especially love The Hive in the MASS District, with businesses like Heritage, Batch New Southern Kitchen & Tap, Glitch Bar, and Sweet Melody Crafted Ice Cream. Smorgasburg Ft.
