To make the pub look like St. George's Chapel, it took weeks and weeks to complete the interior. The pub is is "the next best thing to actually being there," boasted Adriana Salame, designer and project manager of the bar, which is owned by The Drink Company.

"You get a little taste of space," she said.

A woman Katlain Borows, who was dressed like Meghan Markle said, "I think she's a great example of a modern day woman, kind of taking on this very traditional role and really making it her own, and so I really admire her."

The drink menu features cocktails with a British twist and the pub has designed a customised mug to commemorate 'Harry and Meghan' wedding. Four bar tenders shake their stuff to a soundtrack of the Beatles and other British bands, creating specialized cocktails such as 'When Harry met Meghan' and 'American Princess.'

The 'Markle Sparkle' actually has real glitter in it, Kelly Horn explained while taking a sip.
