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.
