    The Royal Star is mind blowing - the value you get with the food and the ambiance for the money is incredible. Get the salads, they’re massive and delicious 🥗

    As of October 2015, they accept Bitcoin for payments - enthusiasts rejoice! Most of the regular staff understand how to accept those payments as well. Surprisingly, they don't do contactless yet.

    Usually a fairly quiet place for a drink late night, not too many kinds of beers or ales though.
