Kitchen & Bar

Stocked and maintained by the owner's wife, the Rose Thorn Tavern has a variety of dishes. While the owner is no master culinarian they will be happy to serve you if no other staff are present.
(If Deirdre is preparing your food or drink, she will roll a d20 to determine the outcome. This does not apply to the wines or meads, or mezcal.)As part of your meal service, the owner will provide a tome from her personal collection for you to peruse while you dine. If you fall in love with a particular book she'll be happy to point you to a vendor.While they do not appear on the menu proper, Tea and Coffee are both available, as is any liquor product used to make the cocktails on the menu if you desire it straight or on the rocks.

Mel's Meads





Ishgardian Red from a local vinyard. The owner's drink of choice.






La Noscean White straight from Wineport.








Bourbon or Rye with a few dashes of bitters, a spoonful of water and some sugar, garnished with an orange twist. Optionally on the rocks.




A Turali beverage made of fermented maguey. It is smokey with subtle hints of citrus and vanilla.





Tequila, coconut cream, lime juice, Cointreau, and agave syrup make for a creamy margarita...why Aiyo's bath water might be creamy is perhaps best left a mystery though.




A selection of custom brewed meads courtesy of Melchius Holt from the Lazy Leviathan. Mead can be served Hot or Cold.







Roll a D20 to pick a random drink from the list.






A mocha milkshake made with coffee liquor, chocolate vodka, and vanilla icecream, topped with chocolate infused whipped cream and light roast coffee beans.





Pale Ale common in the bars of Limsa Lominsa, chilled and frothy.






A milky sweet tea in the hingan style, filled with pearls made of sugar and tapioca starch. As sweet and bubbly as the girl it's named after.















Leviathan's Rest: The feeling of coming in from the cold distilled into liquid form.
Popped Cherry: Made with cherries and sage, this mead is sweet and just a little savory.





Roll for Cocktail

Jiru Java

Lominsan Ale

Tilly Tea
















Valentione's Kiss: As sweet and sour as your first awkward kiss, this chocolate and orange flavored mead is sure to please.





Bathhouse

The Rose Thorn baths are open to all, and the only dress code is that you cannot wear typical clothing in the waters. The dust of your travels need not follow you into the tub after all.

The changing area doubles as a shower and it is encouraged that all patrons make use of it before entering the tubs. Lockers are also provided for the security of patrons belongings.

The dancing pole is primarily for the use of the venue owner but patrons are free to use it when she is not.
