KiraNovember 21, 2015I know it's a nightclub but I went for a concert and it was awesome- nice staff, intimate venue, great sound.
Peter SalemAugust 4, 2018Great for shows, never been here just to go out. Plenty of bars, easy to get a drink, plenty of room on both levels but this can be bad if not many people come out
Nadine PasterczykOctober 1, 2016Definitely one of my fave clubs. They always have great trance artists.
FrancisApril 9, 2016No better place to dance to the best DJs that come through Boston. Fri nights are EDM and awesome!
TablelistFebruary 23, 2014Royale is know for bringing top chart DJs (and for epic lines and cover charges!) Book a VIP table with the Tablelist app and save time and $$ for the next show.
Men's Health MagJanuary 29, 2015A cavernous, anything-goes joint where supermodels dance with transvestites and day traders to big-name national DJs. Read more
Dan ODecember 13, 2015Good music, shitty front staff. They coat check but wont let hats into the building even if you plan to check it with your coat. You're forced to leave it outside by the door & hope no one steals it.
Connie ChanDecember 6, 2012Out of all the clubs in Boston, I think Royale is the biggest of them all. Their stage is lively and a huge display screen with a big dance floor!
Eziquio LobãoDecember 13, 2014Awesome music, and environment. If you're looking for a place to have fun, that's the right place for you!!
Michelangelo AragonJuly 27, 2014My friend who is a medical marijuana patient got her medicine taken away even though she was rejecting to go into the royale. It was today Saturday at 11:45pm that it happened. Y do u violate rights?
Alex LeavittApril 11, 2010Don't bother with the coatcheck; use the lockers to the left. $4 per locker (versus $3 for coat + tip), and you can cram about 3 jackets and 2 purses in 1 locker. Also, you can revisit the locker all- The FeastJune 6, 2011Dress to impress if you're going on a Saturday night; you'll be on full display on the round-the-block line. Also home to some of the best concerts, thanks to the Bowery Boston.
Benjamin DupontFebruary 7, 2013The venue is crazy beautiful inside, huge potential size-wise. Just the right amount so it's still intimate. The usual over priced bar nonsense though means I will go elsewhere if at all possible.

The crowd usually sucks, especially if you go on a weekend. It's alright for concerts, but the slightly increased floor right in front of the stage is obnoxious
Sumit JohriSeptember 1, 2014Fridays nights are crazy.. Love d music, lot of great DJs every weekend.. :)
expect lines for any show. They search and it takes way too much time. Staff generally rude. Drinks outrageously priced. Decent venue to see bands but with all the negatives I'm always hesitant to go.
- DJ Pauly DMarch 22, 2010Boston stand up! Formally known as Roxy, but redesigned with a Miami feel. Only the best DJs in the world booked here, and of course DJ Pauly D is resident DJ here as well.
Christine KearnsAugust 20, 2013Love the layout. Open floor plan up to the stage with U-shaped balcony.- Boston VIPListJune 26, 2012FRIDAY JUNE 29TH Join us for a Summer Time Bikini Showcase. Resident DJ Breeazy. LADIES FREE UNTIL 11. VIP TABLES HIGHLY ENCOURAGED. bostonviplist@gmail.com 617-335-5582
Interesting perk to seeing a concert here - the stage is high enough so you can easily see the band from the back of the dance floor. Read more
Dan VOctober 5, 2012Make sure you hide your contraband, they search thoroughly and you WILL lose your joint if its in a cigarette box, just saying..- The Daily Free PressNovember 27, 2012Lots going on this season, including A Very GK! Holiday Festival on Dec. 14, an alternative music concert festival. Begins at 2:30 p.m. Tickets start from $23.99.
Bridget Reed MorawskiJanuary 1, 2015Fun dj, good drinks, but the night we were there - a Friday - was barely occupied.
Justin LorangerJanuary 22, 2012Never fear, Pauly D is not resident DJ here! Some of the best international acts come here to spin
Kesi WangOctober 3, 2012Royale is def one of the best club in town. If you need free/reduced admission, text me at 718-415-7901. :D- Boston VIPListNovember 7, 2011NYC DJ SUHEL makes his return to FULL ON FRIDAYS AT ROYALE! VIP TABLES ENCOURAGED!

Ladies are free before midnight every Saturday and it's the hottest Saturday party in town. Fab music fab people fab club.
Liana MassonSeptember 22, 2013Ladies ne careful and keep track of you phones. Heard of a lot of phones that have been stolen here.- Andrew JohnsonJune 1, 2013Trashiest place ever. The dance floor was covered with spilled drinks and smelled like vomit. I guess they expect this kind of clientelle because everyone gets a TSA patdown before coming in.
