The Royale Room sits in the heart of Downtown Austin, steps away from the energy of Sixth Street & surrounded by the city’s best music, nightlife, and cultural destinations. A seventies inspired cocktail lounge with ice cold martinis, and contemporary cocktails, reimagined with the Austin spirit.
The Royale Room pours a range of sub zero house martinis and cocktails including our OG dirty, celebratory shot combos & our monthly rotating dirty martini series. Our bar snacks are inspired by the things people know and love. Pair your cocktail with the perfect prawn cocktail, fresh spinach dip, pigs in a blanket, or steakhouse burger & golden truffle fries.

Great vibes at The Royal Room
We had an amazing time enjoying a casual girlfriends’ meet-up. Our server, Austin, was absolutely phenomenal—attentive, friendly, and made the night even better. Huge shoutout to Nate behind the bar for being on point with the drinks all night. Great service, great energy, and a spot we’ll definitely be back to!

The Royale Room at the Thompson Austin is such a vibe. The space feels luxurious without trying too hard and the martinis are hands-down some of the best in the city. The staff is warm, attentive, and actually makes great recommendations. The music and overall atmosphere make it the perfect spot for a classy night out, a date, or just treating yourself. The food is soooo yummy, way more elevated than your typical bar snacks. Absolutely recommend.

The cocktails are excellent, but the loaded fries were so good that I had to write this review. Best loaded fries I’ve ever had, by far.

No wonder the burger was on happy hour. You couldn’t pay me to eat it. It was the consistency of a burnt tire, and the cheese.. That was cheese? Service was medicore and we were the only ones in there. Not a reliable place to pop in for a drink and snack. Definitely embarrassed I even recommended this place for a friend’s gathering. Do better.

We had such a great experience at The Royale Room tonight. The space itself feels elevated yet comfortable — the kind of bar where every detail, from the lighting to the glassware, feels intentional. Our server, Austin, made the night. He was friendly, attentive without hovering, and clearly takes pride in what he does. The cocktails were perfectly balanced, and his recommendations were spot-on. Overall, it’s one of those rare spots that feels both special and easy to settle into. Highly recommend stopping in for a drink or two.

Celebrated my birthday here this weekend and the staff went above and beyond to make it special!! Kader, the manager, was delightful to work with and provided a 5 star experience. The bartending staff was super friendly and Austin and Sel delivered amazing service. This is a great venue for anyone looking to have an upscale date night out or a special event. 10/10 experience!

The menu is pretty small, I had the steak frites and the jumbo shrimp cocktail. The steak was good and cooked well, but didn’t stand out. The shrimp in the shrimp cocktail lived up to their jumbo name, but I didn’t particularly like either of the sauces it came with.

Wonderful vibe in here, great drinks, and the cherry on top was the wonderful bartender, Derek. When you come, ask for Derek. Living legend.

Wow – was really impressed with my first visit to Royale Room! The salmon belly tartare was excellent, as was the huge 8oz burger. Steak frites was cooker perfectly and even the gem lettuce salad was great with a super tasty vinaigrette. Excited to get to try more of the menu on my next trip!
