The Royal, located in the historic LeDroit Park neighborhood of Washington, DC, is a versatile all-day destination that combines a coffee shop and breakfast-lunch spot by day with a vibrant bar kitchen by night. Founded in 2015 by Paul Carlson and his family, the establishment draws inspiration from their international background and passion for cooking and shared experiences with loved ones.

Offering an eclectic menu featuring locally sourced ingredients, Royal serves creative dishes from a wood-burning grill alongside a diverse selection of cocktails, local beers, and wines. The establishment prides itself on community engagement and maintaining affordability, implementing a surcharge to manage rising operational costs without increasing menu prices.
