Editorial Review for Royale – by Tom Geck

In Short
Despite its upscale decor, Royale feels like many of its surrounding neighborhood bars on weeknights. A smattering of locals swap jokes with a lone bartender over stiff drinks. Weekends pick up with young hipsters drawn in by the sounds of funk, house and dub reggae spun by a DJ. A wall guards the turntables to fend off the tiny, impromptu dance floor that comes to life during late-night hours.

User Reviews for Royale

4 Star Rating: Recommended

Royale is a great place to hang out with friends. Their drinks are reasonably priced (beer for only $4), decor is appealing, music is smokin, crowd is diversed. It's packed, but not sardines packed. There is still plenty of room to breathe and dance during peak hour on weekend. Arrive before 11 to avoid cover charge and score seats.

Pros: Good drinks, Inexpensive, Mixed crowd

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Aggressive Happy Hour, Solid DJ's and as always, a sweet decor. Royale tees it up all nights of the week and I like it!

Pros: Good DJ Line-up, Posh Louge

Cons: , Parking
