Royal Rooster

Denver
New American Restaurant
$$$$

Located inside Restaurateur Justin Brunson's Old Major, Royal Rooster is a lunch-only chicken sandwich-and-canned beer pop-up. It draws lunchtime crowds to the bar at Old Major with its hearty, innovative creature comforts, like the ever-popular fried chicken from its host's dinner menu, but in sandwich form with various toppings (get the Classic Rooster with pickles and mayo, the Korean with kimchi and Kewpie mayo, the Spicy with pickles and Sriracha mayo, or the French with ham, swiss, and mayo) on a soft Martin's potato bun. The menu is limited to just a few options beyond the Roosters, and yes, there is cheeseburger.
