Cool, I found an answer for this.  Yeah.

SELECT
    A.Name,
    B.Type,
    A.Views

FROM
    dbo.Locations A INNER JOIN
    dbo.Location_Type B ON A.Type = B.ID

WHERE
    A.ID IN (    SELECT TOP 3
                            ID
                        FROM
                            Locations
                        WHERE
                            Type = A.Type
                        ORDER BY
                            Views DESC)
    ORDER BY
        B.Type,
        A.Views DESC
