Honestly, I'm not a fan of Espresso Royale to begin with. Generally I only end up at one, if I'm studying with someone else and it's the closest coffee shop around. I've had their coffee on multiple occasions, but found it to be mostly burnt tasting and just altogether bad. Because of my previous bad experiences with their coffee, I usually just get a shot of espresso for a quick caffeine fix without having to choke down an entire cup of the hot mud water they serve as coffee. Their espresso isn't horrible and is very comparable to Starbucks's espresso (which is also not very good). It does the job and keeps me alert, to say the least. This location in particular wins a couple stars because of the layout of the actual cafe. It's got a decent amount of room for studying and has a pretty cool maze-like structure. If I HAD to study at another Espresso Royale, it would definitely be this one every time.
