What Diners Say

★★★★★ "Absolutely love Royal Ground Coffee! This spot has quickly become one of my favorites on Polk Street. The Lavender Latte is beautifully balanced—floral without being overpowering—and the Wolflower Latte is unique, comforting, and thoughtfully crafted.
★★★★★ Alexandre N. Vosmek-Park 4 months ago
The team here feels like family. They make me feel welcome, know me by name, and even put extra love into making my favorite dish. For example, the image I posted is of my favorite order, a Lox Bagel with EVERYTHING on it, and they make it as a sandwich or open face depending on if I need to take it...

Warm welcome at the first entrance. With great taste sandwiches and delicious coffees. The ambience is unique. The cafe where I found peace while reading my book.
