Castle Royale is a privately held, single-site event venue and catering company headquartered at 92 Waverly Street, Yonkers, NY. The company operates two distinct ballroom venues — the Empress Grand Ballroom (for large-scale events) and the Duchess Ballroom (for intimate gatherings) — with combined capacity for up to 500 guests. Its core offering is a full-service event package bundling venue rental, in-house catering, event design, and audio-visual support, delivered to a horizontal mix of customer segments including wedding couples (primary), corporate clients, schools/proms, quincea\u00f1era and sweet sixteen families, bridal showers, and baby showers.

Revenue is generated through quote-based, customized one-time event packages priced per guest count, menu selection, and venue requirements. The company employs an in-house culinary team led by Executive Chef Junior, supported by sous chefs, pastry chefs, and gourmands, with dietary accommodations spanning Kosher, Halal, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Vegan, and Vegetarian options. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; customers schedule in-person tours with dedicated booking and catering staff to receive a tailored quote.

The go-to-market is sales-led and direct, with discovery primarily driven through third-party wedding marketplace directories (The Knot, WeddingWire) and the company website. The headcount is reported at 11-50 employees, and no funding, ownership structure, financial disclosures, or proprietary technology platforms are present in the available data. The website copyright is dated 2022, and the company appears to be independently operated without venture capital or private equity backing.
