By day, The Royal serves as a bustling coffee shop and lunch spot. Around happy hour, however, the atmosphere shifts. Baristas stop pouring coffee and bartenders begin mixing up cocktails. Snag one of them between 3 and 7 p.m. seven days a week (with extended happy hours on Monday) with a few of the bar bites on special.

Sip on a classic cocktail, like a Sazerac or an Old Fashioned, or spice things up with a Paloma, a mix of grapefruit soda and tequila. The bar offers house wine and domestic beer on special, too. Try an arepa stuffed with beef or cheese, a grilled avocado, or the crispy house fries, all available for less than $10 during happy hour. If you’re still hungry, stick around for dinner to enjoy revamped American comfort food hot from the wood-fired grill.
