The Royal Room first opened its doors in 2017 and it’s been one of our favorite cocktail lounges in Tucson.
When you’re there, you feel like the team’s friends or family (cousins, even). There’s plenty to choose from on tap and in the fridge, the tater tots are fan favorites, the sandwiches are a hit, DJ nights get the dance floor movin’, and there’s even some new outdoor seating along the front.
On Tuesday, October 17, the bar is celebrating its sixth anniversary with drink specials, free swag (while supplies last), live jams from DJ B-Rad, and food from behind the bar and outside from You Sly Dog. Plus, Blondie’s Ice Cream will be available, handing out brain freezes.
“Six, six, six,” said Ian Stupar, owner of The Royal Room, quoting the band Iron Maiden. “The number of the beast! Hell and fire were spawned to be released!”
If you can’t stop by on Tuesday, October 17, stop by as soon as possible to give them a high-five for six years. The Royal Room is open 4 p.m. – 1 a.m. on Sunday – Thursday and 4 p.m. – 2 a.m. on Friday – Saturday.
Also, there’s a daily Happy Hour from 4 – 7 p.m. Party on!
The Royal Room is located at 450 N. Sixth Ave. For more information, follow The Royal Room on Instagram or visit theroyalroomtucson.com.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
