I’m honestly shocked to see some of the recent bad reviews because they just don’t match my experiences here at all. Some of them even mention things like “hairs” or “pebbles” in menu items that they don’t even carry, which makes it seem like someone is just bitter and trolling. I’m a regular at RoyalT and I’ve never had a bad experience. The staff is always so friendly and accommodating, and the food is consistently amazing. They have the best linguica rolls around, and their weekly/seasonal specials are always a hit. I went today and got a chicken Caesar salad quesadilla and a club sub wrap off their weekly special menu, and both were delicious! They also have a beautiful private function room with a bar and great drink options. I planned a bridal shower there back in September, and the whole process was incredibly smooth. It was one of the most affordable venues I found, and everyone couldn’t stop talking about how great the space and food were! I also saw a review mentioning ice all over the outside of the building, but I went today right after the snowstorm and everything was properly shoveled and sanded. RoyalT is an amazing small, locally owned business, and it’s disappointing to see what looks like a wave of fake reviews all at once. They deserve support not misinformation!❤️

Place is Great! Plenty of parking for customers with their own dedicated parking lot, Latte and all drinks are on point and food is great! We had a company party on Xmas Eve and the reviews were excellent! We will be booking another gathering at Royal T in the neat future for sure. Highly recommend, local and respectful employees!

I can’t say enough good things about the staff. From the moment I mentioned my food allergy, they handled everything with such professionalism, care, and understanding. They took my concerns seriously, made sure I felt safe, and went above and beyond to accommodate me without making me feel like an inconvenience. For someone with food allergies, this is a huge deal, and their attention to detail meant more than I can express. I’m incredibly grateful for the kindness and respect they showed throughout the entire experience. Thank you for making what is often a stressful situation feel comfortable and safe.

My friend and I went out to RoyalT for the first time - we bought tickets for their first comedy show and it was a great experience! We will definitely be back! The food was delicious - the owner creates a special menu for their evening events since their normal hours of operation are during the day. I had the strawberry margarita and it was delish. The food was flavorful and seasoned perfectly. The owner spent some time talking with myself and my friend and she was so lovely. She also informed me that all the drinks she created and wines she offered were from female run businesses which I love! There is parking which is a great perk on the busy street! They even have the dragon decor from when it was chucks china Inn. This is a little gem of nostalgia from years ago! I will be back again for another event or during their normal business hours - she informed me she serves breakfast all day which I love! ❤️ you are missing out if you haven’t tried this place !

The Owner Of Royal T was pulling in as my daughter & I were walking back to the car because we arrived around 7:15 only to see the hours on the door were at 8. She waved, was so friendly & sweet. She said to give her 15 mins & asked what we wanted & she would make it. Outstanding customer service for her on a busy holiday to start early to make our Iced Lattes which as always tasted like straight perfection. She even personally delivered it to our car where we were waiting. I have always loved this place because it’s clean, everyone is always friendly & kind & their food & drinks have never disappointed. If you haven’t been to this hidden gem I highly recommend you stop to experience great food & drinks with customer service to match.

I absolutely love this place and its owners! The food and drinks are always amazing, and the atmosphere is so welcoming. Ashley is incredible. She always has a smile on her face, a positive attitude, and a great sense of humor. She's so kind and helpful, and she truly makes my daughters' and my mornings so much brighter. Exceptional customer service like hers is hard to find, and it's one of the many reasons we love coming here. The stores cookies are hands down the best, the breakfast bowl is absolutely delicious, and the caramel boba with vanilla milk is my favorite! Everything is consistently fresh and made with care. If you're looking for a place with amazing food, delicious drinks, and genuinely wonderful people, I can't recommend this spot enough!

Service - 5 star! The owner and the staff were so sweet and responsive. We went to a baby shower and I was so surprised to see someone took over the old chucks! The food was delicious and fresh. It was clean and cute inside. All around great experience, I will definitely go back during regular business hours to get a little something at the cafe! Highly recommend!
