It seems that Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, and Baby Archie are getting into the English Sunday roast tradition. The Sun reports that over the weekend the family was spotted at a local pub called the Rose and Crown in Berkshire’s Winkfield village, where they were seen having a casual $18 meal and hanging out for a few hours.

The Sun says that Prince Harry had a few beers, while Markle stuck to water. They somehow went largely unnoticed by diners, although they were sitting inside with two security officers nearby. Still, one businessman, who was quoted anonymously, spotted them while he was at the pub with his girlfriend and described the scene to the news outlet.

“They were on a table with, I presume, a private secretary. Meghan was cradling Archie most of the time. The little lad was as good as gold. I didn’t hear him cry once while he was there,” he said. “No other customers recognized them. The staff clearly knew who they were but kept the service low-key.”

The reported pub visit comes just as the royals have been facing a serious wave of scrutiny, something that’s become pretty common by now. They were heavily criticized this month for their use of a private jet during a vacation to France. Elton John, who had organized the transportation, jumped to the couple’s defense and said on Twitter that he ensured the flight was carbon neutral. Other celebs, including Ellen DeGeneres and Pink, also jumped to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s defense.

“They just chatted away like any normal couple and were laughing a lot,” the Sun‘s source continued. “After the controversy they have been attracting, they were getting their feet back on the ground with pub grub like millions of ordinary folk, and it was nice to see.”
