On the GridNovember 21, 2016Located in the heart of the historic LeDroit Park neighborhood, Royal is an all day spot – coffee shop by day and bar/kitchen by night. Beautiful. Elegant. Intimate. Read more
Bitches Who BrunchFebruary 10, 2016We love this place for many reasons: the chic, cozy space and convivial ambiance, the coffee-and-cocktails options, and the delicious Colombian cuisine that meets a variety of dietary needs. Read more
Alex BarzApril 16, 2018We couldn’t decide which dish on the table was our favorite. I’ll be dreaming of the Masa Gnocchi for months. And the House Fries and Beef Arepas were also delicious.
- Leandro LageraAugust 14, 2016Exactly the kind of restaurant I love. Hip, casual and full of pretty people. The food is outstanding and eclectic with influences from several types of cuisine but remains strongly rooted in Latino.
MK McKenzieJune 29, 2015Stuffed arepa was pretty good. Pricey, though. Order at the bar & seat yourself, which is unclear at first. Still figuring things out (lady @ the register didn't know what an arepa was). Worth a try.
Adam JohnsonOctober 11, 2015The veg dish w/ tomatoes, butter lettuce, corn and chickpeas was incredibly flavorful: crisp lettuce with melt-in-your-mouth tomatoes and mild feta compliment the contrasting chickpea/corn textures.- Mac CAugust 26, 2020Trendy and casual establishment, with an excellent staff. You can order and pay completely contactless from your table.
Matthew HarneyDecember 12, 2015Espresso, coffee, homemade juices, arepas, choripan, cocktails and Jay.- Bitches Who BrunchOctober 20, 2015The Bitches say: B. The Royal is great for a chill, productive morning with a worldly breakfast menu and great coffee. Read more
Lis ROctober 26, 2015Love that they are open all day long. A good place to do some work, grab some decent bites, and switch into a drink later.- Jae LeeFebruary 1, 2019Great relatively spacious and funky coffee/ normal bar. Food is ok, coffee is great, and atmosphere is spot on
A little overpriced but great service and ambiance. Get the egg arepa for breakfast.
Good stop - especially for breakfast. Coffee is above average and the breakfast arepa is tasty. Feels a little pricey overall.
Service and Coffee. The Arepas are delicious too
Maggie MacGFebruary 7, 2023All of the food is good here but the Brussel sprouts are not to be missed.
Michael LopezJuly 29, 2015The empanadas were pretty cheap and delicious. The cocktails were only ok.
