Royal Blue Grocery

I love this store they have awesome options and usually great staff. Today I went in on my break and the staff was not the normal upbeat welcoming staff. Both girls working were stand offish and seemed to not want to be bothered. I ordered the hazelnut matcha and it came out like chocolate milk zero green color and no matcha taste. I still enjoyed it as chocolate milk is yummy but definitely not a matcha and I payed about $9. I’ve had way better experiences at this location very frequently but today was just so off and not welcoming at all.

This place is like if a mini mart got accepted into an Ivy League school, studied abroad in Italy, and came back wearing Warby Parkers and Birkenstocks with holes through the bottom. You walk in expecting a dusty corner store and instead BAM — curated cheese, and kombucha judging you from the fridge. Need gluten-free kale chips? They got you. Need a bag of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos and a Pinot Grigio for your hotel meltdown? Also got you. Coffee? Fresh and hipster-approved. Hygiene items? Yes, because sometimes you forget your toothpaste and deodorant when you black out packing for a work trip. The aesthetic is “old-school general store goes to SoHo,” and honestly, it works. 4/5 would buy $25 worth of trail mix and diet tonic water again.

I came in the other day and ended up chilling to wait the storm out. Felicity and Nix were so kind. Downtown is downtown. Of course there are going to be interesting folk wandering in. I just saw a couple of reviews talking about that. Austin Texas has to have one of the craziest down town areas ever. I think it’s awesome that Royal Blue employees have such a great attitude dealing with that all day. I honestly don’t know how they do it so I was impressed. I love the little cooler section with mini cheese and eggs. It’s a cute little space. Oh I forgot, I bought this adorable mini Nutella. I love the mini items there.

Love the place but being prompted for a tip while buying premade pasta salad is a bummer. I feel pressured and obligated to tip when I’ve picked out my own salad, walked it to the register and swiped my card. I don’t think I’ll return.

I bought this food in royal blue, and the rice is raw as if they just threw it from the bag onto the plate, I got sick, it gave me pain, don't buy that, it's expensive and they don't cook it well, and it's not the first time...
