Polden Publishing and developer toR Studio are thrilled to announce Restaurats, an all-new medieval fantasy tavern simulator where a team of rats do the work! 

Lead a medieval restaurant with a team of rats just like you! Cook the food, throw it at guests, and ready the tables for the fantastical creatures who’ll come to feast. Learn to cook the best recipes, improve your tavern (and your rat), and be ready to serve VIP customers for bonus rewards. Become a legendary rat chef with up to four players, and make your tavern the most visited in the realm!

Play solo or with up to four players while managing your tavern – serve tables, cook food, improve your restaurant, and become the best rat-ed chef around. But to reach the ranks of peak chef rat-dom, you need to know what you’re getting into first!

What can players expect from Restaurats?

Restaurats is not just any restaurant simulator. There are rodents, medieval vibes, and loads of chaos that are sure to induce laughter, trigger rage, and make you cry. Oh, and you are allowed to punch your customers here. For anyone who has ever worked in customer service, this will feel oh-so-satisfying. 

This just barely scratches the surface of what players can expect when diving into Restaurats. Here is every feature that Polden and toR Studio have coming our way so far:

Culinary Connoisseur 

Learn recipes to cook for the tavern’s fantastical patrons—the more complex the dish, the better the reward. If you’ve ever wanted to channel your inner Remy from Ratatouille, this game is your chance to unleash your culinary rodent expertise.

Customer Service

Be attentive to the tavern’s guests, like skeletons, vampires, orcs and more in Restaurats. Each has unique preferences and requirements, so be sure to be attentive to their needs. Also, you will need to pay attention to each creature’s unique relationship with other creatures when you seat them. 

Yes, you may be able to duke it out with customers, but that is not what you should be aiming for. No matter how cathartic it may be.

Upgrade Your Rodent Self!

Level up your character, improve your skills, and customize your rat to be the most stylish of your friends. It’s your tavern, and you got to make your mark.

Bonus Cards

Hard work deserves a little treat. At the end of each day, receive special cards affecting dishes, abilities, money and more to improve your tavern. Oh, and they can help boost your reputation. A restaurant’s reputation is everything, especially in Restaurats.

Ultimate Restaurat

Listen. We all know there is an end goal here. Build up the tavern with new blueprints to improve its capacity, functionality and attractiveness.


Ready to scurry into the kitchen? Wishlist Restaurats on Steam and play the demo with up to four players, which is available to try out right now on Steam.
