Espresso Royale

The coffee is delicious and the atmosphere is relaxed. The staff is clean and knowledgeable of the drinks. I have the pleasure of dealing with Kayla or Jackson most of the time and they are both very good at their jobs. I highly recommend checking them out.

Clean & less busy than campus/​other locations, this Espresso Royale is a bit more chill while serving up the same good coffee drinks. Sometimes it’s crowded here but on most days, it’s easy to find a table.

While this place is busy, I can only assume it’s because they are the only coffee house in the area.
The coffee is overly roasted and tastes like it has sat to long.
The steamed drinks taste like desert clay… Meaning the are dry and really €$&@ing hot. Like you can’t even drink it for 45min without risking burning you lips off. Do they know how to steam milk there?
I have worked in 4 different coffee houses before, and officially done some barista competitions, including judging, and Espresso Royal is really far from coffee royalty. It’s a place you go when you have not other options.
HOWEVER! All the staff has been friendly to me that 4 times I have gone. And the atmosphere is decent.
You could do worse… Like McDonalds, but over all, this is a 3 start joint.

Tea and chai is delicious. It’s often crowded with people getting together for a chat. If you’re looking for something a little more quiet, this isn’t it.

This espresso is way better than all the ones close to campus. Quieter, better seating, easy parking.
My favorite thing is the vanilla tea latte. It’s very sweet but I love it. The chai latte I had here was not very good, it was really watery. But the vanilla tea latte is great.

Great coffee and service — excellent staff. Great atmosphere BUT not enough couches (and that Santa Claus guy is always sitting in the only one I think is comfortable). I would honestly go here more if I thought I could find a comfortable place to plop down.

Speaking specifically of this location… easily the best in town. Great drinks, plenty of seating, and generally friendly staff.
Drink an espresso based drink here, they’re better than the brewed coffee. Parking is tight at this location.

Ordinarily a good experience, but a surly, eye-​rolling, wannabe-​hipster barista wouldn’t prepare my order because the blender was dirty, then barked an order at me to wait at the far end of the bar for my order (nobody else was in-​line) and walked off before giving anything.
I stood around at the bar waiting for him to return and when he finally did, with great exaggerated effort, asked if there was something else.
«Yes, I’m waiting for the pastries.»
Sigh. Here.
«Can I have a cream cheese?»
Sigh. Eye roll. Yes, here. … Walks off …
My hands were full and couldn’t carry my «to go» order and needed a cup carrier.
After standing around for several minutes, finally a young woman cleaning in the back (I think the only one putting any effort in) came up and politely asked if she could help.

So many selections! The lattes are smooth. They can make your drink any way you’d like… soy sugar-​free syrups etc.
I love the extremely well organized fixins area.
The mugs for sale are very tempting. Prices are comparable to Starbucks, and they have free wi-​fi. Comfortable, open, lounge type space.

Good espresso. Wifi, space, people, water, music, vegan muffins.

Good coffee, friendly staff Free wifi, lots of seating.
