Royal Rooters Club

So, it’s a work in progress little museum. We got to check it out after our Fenway tour. So, there were no drinks or bartenders :(boo, but I’m glad they took us here to check out the memorabilia, read some stuff and had staff there to answer questions. It was cool!
Stop in if you get the chance!

Jay, one of the nicest and professional bartenders out there. Spot on. All the time!

I have been a Red Sox fan since I opened my eyes in the maternity ward to witness Bill Monbouquette and my beloved team beat the Chicago White Sox at Comiskey Park hours after I was born on August 26, 1959. Although they went on to finish 19 games behind the American League Champion White Sox, I was hooked for life. Fast forward 54 years, season ticket holder of the game and my picture taken on the field with the mascots during pregame ceremonies. Then my very first trip to the Royal Rooter Club.
It’s a museum. No it’s a bar. No, it’s a restaurant. No, it is the penultimate hangout for true fans who love baseball and love the Red Sox. Stellar service, great drinks, quality food and wonderful desserts. Tara is an angel who insures all your season ticket holder needs are met. I love this place. I wish I could hang out here on non-​game days. It is the only thing that could possibly improve on a day at Fenway Park.

My first time at RR CLUB. Food was processed n gross. Won’t be back any time soon.

This place so rocks for Red Sox fans! I can’t say enough about the pure awesomeness of being in historic Fenway park during a game & having access to a spacious place to sit among fans surrounded by cool memorabilia, CLEAN nice bathrooms & good food & drinks like lobster roll, lobster corn chowder, black bean veggie burger & grey goose martini the way I like it! A wonderful respite during midsummer heat or midwinter freeze. Staff gets major coolness points. Portions big & fresh. Really enhances the whole experience. Super great when they win, takes a little of the sting out during a slump. Well worth the extra $$ to join the club.
Addendum: staff just came by & comped our meals tonight for «fan appreciation» day. It just keeps getting better!

Oh Dear this place oughta be a home run. Perfect location. Loads of food service and management know-​how on site. Easy sources for food (Aramark, now locally grown produce right at Fenway). But how they manage to be so below mediocre is shocking. They no longer serve the Green Monstah beer. No longer have the heirloom tomoto and mozzerella with balsamic salad that many of us went out of our way for. Staff is friendly but a little lost and it’s not their fault. Bad menu, lack of good training and management. What a waste.

Had great food last year but it’s really sad they couldn’t be ready to serve people on opening day.

A super awesome club for those who are true Red Sox fans. It’s a club with amazing food and drinks and you get to view the history of the park and the players that played and made history in that park. I had a green monsta IPA beer which was tasty and we got a plate of wings. Such good food and a really nice waiter. So happy I was able to go

Worst service and experience I have had in Boston to date. Waited almost 20 minutes after being seated for the waiter to come by. Ordered drinks and 3 appetizers. Waited another 40 minutes for one of the three apps to arrive. In the meantime never saw the waiter to refill our now empty glasses. After finishing the pitiful nachos which consisted of tostitos smothered in American cheese and microwaved chili we asked the hostess to track down our waiter. Still nothing. Now over an hour after sitting asked to speak to the manager who assured me he would check on the rest of our order and find our waiter for another round of drinks. The second app arrived and more disappointment. Another 10 minutes and 2 innings into the game we decided to give up on the third app and get the check. Another 10 minutes the check arrives which charged us for a $ 24 order of wings which we never ordered. Again asked to speak to the manager who said he would take that off the bill. When I asked about the app we never received he said «what do you want me to do, comp your entire bill?!» Unreal. Never again will I waste my time on this place. Not only was the service despicable but the food was way below average to boot.

Finally got to stop into the RRC (2^nd to last regular game of the season). Atmosphere is ok – other than the memorabilia and TVs — it’s nothing special, though it’s nice to have private bathrooms (but the men’s room floor was soaking wet). The food is average. Had the pulled pork sliders and nachos — plus some drinks. I almost started laughing when I saw $ 7.75 for a soda — really? I’ll have a beer almost the same price. Our waitress, Siobhan, was very good. Overall, the food is mediocre and the prices are high (just as you’d expect).

The Royal Rooters Club is a nice pace to go if there is a game delay, cold weather or extremely hot weather. They have a nice bar, lots of food (a bit expensive) and nice memorabilia. The service is very good. My Iphone was dying and I was able to recharge while I had a beer and watched the game on one of the multiple monitors. I saved the best for last. This year they installed our own private BATHROOMS. One for the ladies and one for the men. They are clean and so much nicer than the other facilities that my wife walks over from our seats in section 12 when the need arises. The one drawback is the lack of any view what so ever of our glorious ball yard. I would love even a distant view otherwise the feel of the club is much like the bars surrounding Fenway. Another nice plus (to finish on a positive note) is the club is never over crowded. My season ticket group is very glad we spent the extra money!
Go SOX!

its a great respite before, during, or after the game… the memorabilia is great… and the staff could not be more accomodating… prices? yeah it may be a little pricey… but the food and drink choices «real» nachos, lobster rolls, and great burgers… even an omelette station. mixed drinks…“real” beer etc. .have it all over the park fare… the option of sitting and relaxing for an inning or two on a «too hot» summer day is inviting… to say nothing of the added benefit of using clean facilities with no lines throughout the game… the fee for joining is now contingent on your season ticket package i.e. how many games ticketed… it is reasonable… the bartenders, wait staff and the customer service people are top notch… its a win /​win

Honestly this would be a great option if the food was less expensive. You are looking at basically the same price as the park (on the plus side their hot dogs are much bigger but still run $ 12). To give you an idea, there were two of us, we ordered: 2 beers, 1 entrée and 2 ice cream sundaes and the bill was $ 65. Food was good, ice cream bar was a little disappointing as it was pretty small. The history in the dining area was very interesting and it was nice to get away to a nice air conditioned area since it was very warm outside. If they decreased their prices it wouldn’t be a bad place to go.

What’s not to like about this place? It’s a great oasis inside Fenway. The service was excellent and the atmosphere is great. Ever feel like getting a little break midgame, especially when it’s 90 degrees out? Well, this is the place to stop in and have a cold beverage while watching the game on their many TVs. A great spot.

Very cool location in the park for fans of the team who appreciate the history of the park and ball club. Nice food selection. Full bar. Thought there would be more of a beer selection, but only about 3 options. More options in the park. Beer was discounted slightly from the park; $ 7 opposed to $ 8.50. At least worth a one time visit for all fans.

Neat place if your a Sox fan. Way over priced though. Drinks in plastic cups. Small salad bar.

Solid team artifacts
Standard beer and food
Good space to step away during games
Tucked behind the centerfield grandstand by Gate B, the Royal Rooters Club is new for season ticket holders in 2012. The added specialty area has a bar, typical American fare, and historical context from the team’s storied past.
As you walk in and present your (separate) ticket, you see a wall of bats of Sox past, beyond which is the main bar. Lounge areas surround the bar, spaced to give wide swaths of standing/​mingling space for patrons. Obviously, the game is on television within.
Walking further off to the side, seating at tables is available, and more history is presented (AL championship trophies, meaningful game-​used balls, write-​ups on The Splendid Splinter, Yaz, Fisk, Nomar, etc., and rolling video of the runs to the World Series titles, for example).
My first visit was during a temperate May night tilt vs. Cleveland (welcome back, Johnny Damon), but where this place will probably really shine is during the stretches of mid-​summer heat beating down on fans game after game — to be able to wander into climate control intermittently will probably be a very solid option (you can leave and return with a «ROOT» hand-​stamp).
The Club is open from two hours prior to first pitch until 45 minutes following last out, which is a decent way to avoid crowds at other local places offering some of the same food and beverage, while soaking up Fenway’s aura further. Still, there may be something lacking here in vibe, if only because there’s something to being out among the fan base living the moment, rather than watching on a monitor, even if you’re just as close.
The Red Sox did well to add the Royal Rooters Club as an added season-​ticket holder benefit option (and one they can recoup more income for). It’s a worthwhile offering, but only as a complement to the game experience, and not as a replacement by any means. Recommended to try it out once if you’re able to swing the chance, and experience it for yourself.
