    • Thank you for visiting the Historic Rosebud!

    There is a 5% Kitchen Admin Fee applied to all checks. We feel this is the most transparent & best way in lieu of raising our menu prices, to help close the gap in wage disparities between our Front of the House and Back of the House employees. 

    Thank you for your support & understanding!
