Separate vegan menu

Turn the menu around for the vegan menu with lots of options. It was good but a bit pricey for the amount you get.

Inconsistent.

Stick to the chicken sandwiches. Service has been a mixed bag since we have gone a few times. The chili cheese fries were soggy and flavorless. The pumpkin shake was good when we had it, but check for seasonal flavors.

Pros: Variety, Vegan Specials

Cons: Inconsistent food quality , Mixed service, Pricey for what you get

4* for full vegan menu

Best thing: Turn over the regular menu to find an entire PAGE of vegan options. It's all bar food, burgers, tacos, fries, but tasty. Loud, busy bar.

Pros: A whole vegan menu

Cons: a little noisy?, portions are kinda small

Separate full vegan menu!

I loved that this place had a full vegan menu with lots of interesting options. I had the Nashville hot chicken sandwich with fries and it was probably the best vegan chicken I’d ever had!

Pros: Delicious vegan chicken, Full vegan menu

Cons: Expensive

Bar with vegan bar food!

Loved the vibe of this establishment - it felt like a classic Irish pub with great beers on tap. Appreciate the separate vegan menu and would not expect anything different as far as options go! I will echo the other reviews and say it’s definitely too expensive for the food and vibe they are going for.

Appreciate the options and separate prep!

This is definitely a staple for nights out and need vegan comfort food. Definitely appreciate the commitment to preparing the food separately. Only gave it three stars because they pretty much only have fried food and replacement meats and are prone to mistakes in orders. Everything is loaded with salt.

Pros: Vegan menu, Separate preparation, Can be very good, especially for nights out

Cons: Prone to mistakes in orders , Greasy, fried replacement meats mostly, Expensive

Great bar food, but expensive

Ate at Ale Mary's Royal Oak this weekend and had their Vegan Triple Decker with Hot Honey & Korean Shrimp. The fries and chicken were nice and crispy. The shrimp tasted just like the sea that even grossed out my seafood hating husband even when it's vegan 😆

Bit pricey but pretty good if you got that itch for vegan bar food that's more than just an plant-based burger patty.

Pros: Lots of options

Cons: Expensive

I tried ale Mary’s for the first time. And I’ll definitely be back! They have the best service I’ve had in years. Our waitress was AMAZING!! I wish I got her name. The food and drinks were sooo good. I definitely recommend! They even had a whole vegan menu with vegan specials!!!

Pros: Vegan Menu, Delicious , Top tier service

Cons: None

We used to love this place..

My fiancé & I used to love this place but the past few years the food has gotten super greasy & just not worth the money. It’s so pricey (just the food,we don’t drink). We supported them a lot before/during covid, and the staff has gotten super rude. When you order carry out you have to go to the bar to pick it up & every time you would go there the bar tender who was busy (which we totally get) would get pissed off having to help you. We’ve talked to other people & they experienced the same things. Makes me sad because we love to support small local businesses!

Pros: Dedicated kitchen, Had unique vegan options

Cons: Expensive for the portions, Staff has gotten rude , Greasy / Not tasty food

Good vegan options

We visit the bar always for Christmas time, they have a Xmas pop-up and special vegan shakes.
They have many veg options. I had salad and they were sold out of the vegan shakes. Husband had a warm Christmas drink and tacos.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Vegan shakes, Christmas lights

Terrible and tasteless

For the money my husband and I spent on tonight’s dinner this was a pure flop!!! To start the service was lazy and everyone seem to have a snippy attitude and by no means was it a busy day to create such poor attitudes. We ordered all on the vegan side starting with onion rings. The onion rings were almost burnt and not seasoned when they arrived. The offered ranch as a side dip which was watery and too sweet to taste like a real ranch. The fried pickles followed, these were wet on texture and were huge full length spears which was just overwhelming to eat more than 2. My husband got the impossible whopper which I tasted and was barely looked and had zero flavor (this was comped from our bill in the end) I got the chicken pita which honestly was pretty good but could use a little more moisture to it as the fried “chicken” was very dry. Tonight was my birthday and I was pretty disappointed …waitress came out with a carrot cake which I took home to try…I threw it away after the first bite it tasted like freezer burn or a cardboard box!!! I have no idea what was going on here but bleghhhhh I’d never go again which is so disappointing since vegan restaurant options are few and far between 😩

Pros: Vegan options plenty , Atmosphere

Cons: Expensive, Tasteless, Poor service

A bit overrated, but still good

I’ve given this place a few chances and I don’t see what the hype is all about. Don’t get me wrong - the food is good. But not any better than all the other good places and pretty expensive for the portions, plus constantly packed. If you find yourself in downtown Royal Oak looking for a sit down meal and bar, this is certainly your best option, but otherwise I’d choose a lot of other restaurants first

Amazing dedicated vegan menu

Definitely go if you get the chance and don’t mind spending a little for a lot of flavor. The vegan menu had a huge selection. Everything we had was delicious. Wish we could have tried the milkshakes, but unfortunately they had run out of ice cream.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Flavorful, Fun environment

Cons: Tipping towards the expensive side

Loved the vegan shrimp!

The food here was delicious. I had the vegan shrimp on their seasonal menu and it was amazing. They had a full page on their menu full of vegan food. It’s rare to find a restaurant with more than one vegan option so it was great to see a full page of vegan options. Downside is that it gets pretty busy and loud inside the restaurant and the food is pricey.

Pros: Delicious Food, Large Vegan Menu, Great Location

Cons: Expensive, Loud Inside, Busy

So many options

I visited here last night and was impressed by the entire separate vegan menu. I had the (v)ani wrap and the chocolate cake dessert, and both were great! The house-made vegan ranch went amazingly with the wrap. Seriously, I think I could eat it every day. I look forward to returning and trying more from the menu.

Pros: A plethora of options

Cons: Somewhat small portions

Lots of vegan options

Ale Mary's vegan menu is just as big as their nonvegan menu. Open late and within walking distance of the Royal Oak Music Theater. Has lots of seating! I got the Korean fried shrimp (this was a special), which was amazing. The chocolate strawberry shake was great too. It is on the pricey side though!

Nice selection of vegan items

I’ve been here a few times. Food is tasty. I’ve had the Nashville sandwich before and it wasn’t as hot but this time it was unbearable to eat. Maybe the cook was heavy handed this day.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Tasty indulgent and healthy choices, Cool vibes

Cons: $15 for a burger with no fries, Nashville sandwich was like a hot chip challenge , Small so it can feel packed
