Royal Blue Grocery

Far more than a grocery store! In addition to their vast selection of snacks, sweets, wine, beer, specialty foods, grag and go sandwiches and salads, they have a great selection of pizza slices and paninis made to order which you can accompany with any beverage you find!

Freshly made grilled Turkey Reuben. 5 stars! 😋

Was in town for 4 nights/ 3 days and found this little gem. All of the staff my lady and I encountered was super friendly, polite and really seemed to enjoy working there...the black dude is one of the most free spirted down to earth people you'll ever meet. Super cool cat. Coffee is great. The hot sandwiches are 10/10. I had the Texas Hold em and Summer Tuna melt. They have more but we were obsessed with these. That habenro sauce they give you is just the right amount of heat. Someone said they're a little pricey then compared them to 711....these 2 aren't even in the same category. The prepped meals then have in the island near the beer really slaps as well. One of the employees recommended the "Siete grain free cookies," and we tried one bag and went back for 4 more before we left. Nice little marble bar to sit and enjoy your coffee or food. They have pizza as well but we did try em. We'll be back to Austin in June/July and can't wait to stop back in. No soup on the weekends but aye, plenty of other good options to choose from. Stay true, Royal Blue. I highly doubt a woman found rocks and "dirt" in her breakfast taco...the guy probably wasn't concerned cause it sounds so ridiculous. LOL.

Amazing store! So convenient, high quality products. Large variety of snacks for the health nut and for the not so healthy individual. Lots of wine and beer options, tonic waters, and a coffee bar for fresh coffee! They have items such as meats and cheeses and also hygiene products and other convenient store options. Very cool aesthetic inside. Old school meets modern. Great for if you’re from out of town and forget some items.

Customer Service is fantastic here. Everyone there is friendly and engaging, and seems genuinely happy you are there. The store is super clean and shelves are stocked and orderly. Great job on the ambiance. The only thing I would have to say is that their prices are a bit on the high side, but makes sense given the downtown hotspot it is located in. Other than that, always a joy to shop and eat there

I couldn't recommend Royal Blue Grocery more highly! I work downtown, just 2 blocks away, and every time I visit the grocery I'm met with a wide selection of goods and a smile. I tried their "Texas Holdem'" this morning and the sandwich was ABSOLUTELY amazing! Stop in when you get a chance. You WON'T be disappointed.

Love this place. Great treats and drinks. It's a good spot if you're on the go and need to grab something and they have a lot of great snacks and beverages for everyday. Nice atmosphere to sit and enjoy coffee and the chai latte was really good!

Friendly neighborhood drop in and pick up what you want or need quick or take your time and sit at the sidewalk table and watch with a sandwich watching the lovely world.
Saved my shirt last week when the person bringing the ice to set up our event was late. Royal Blue to the rescue. We didn’t have to give up our paid parking to hunt and gather ice in traffic. We walked.
The world, and downtown feel friendly and convenient when your lucky enough to have a Royal Blue near you.

Royal Blue Grocery is my favorite convenient store to stop in downtown. They offer a lil bit everything you need. The staff is wonderful, friendly, and helpful. It's a bit pricey, but you'll find most better products (like speciality, organic, healthier, local foods) not offered at regular convenient stores.

I rely far too much on RBG. It has all the little things you may need to make a last minute guacamole, salsa, party bites as well as fresh cooked items from their cafe menu.

I do love that they carry a lot of the local Austin brands in their inventory.

Super pricey and bougey, but great wine and beer selection and unusual gourmet sundries. I wouldn't shop here regularly but a great spot especially trying to stock up on a few snacks while on a business trip.

Nice quiet place to pick up something quick for lunch and great made to order sandwiches. good selection. Of grocery items as well . very friendly staff.

One of the more friendly little groceries that I've ever been to. Very convenient, very handy, and prices seem reasonable

Perfect downtown little grocery store, they have everything you need, including hit steamy Taco's from their own kitchen. Great selection of local products and super friendly staff, love coming here!

Great store. I visit every time I stay in downtown Austin. Solid selection of quality products and very nice people.

You typically wouldn't think a grocery store could be trendy and cool. They've figured it out. Great pre made tacos to grab and go. Super busy and very tiny, but it gets the job done.

Rain is awesome and so kind!! Everyone here is always so nice and great!

The shop has a nice and clean appearance, and it's super convenient for when I have to grab something before or after work.

And the staff there is super sweet!

Great alcohol selection, to go meals, healthy snacks and drinks. Very kind staff, open late.

Great selection. Slightly over priced but it's what you expect for a downtown location. Service and people are always great.
