Aroma Espresso Bar

We ordered a coffee and sit at one table provided by them. They have garbage chairs: the chair back sit, made of rough metallic mesh, it destroyed my business shirt! I should sue the company for this! Be aware if you are dressed nice as the furniture provided is garbage, and can damage your clothes, which can be expensive!!! Owners shall revise conditions provided for their customers…

This place is a riot! The staff is hilarious to watch. Most of them have major attitude problems they’ve never been rude to me but it’s really funny watching them with other customers. The food/​drinks are good, the wait time isn’t bad depending on what time of the year/​weekday it is. The prices aren’t cheap but they have pretty good product. Overall I really enjoy this place. Keep in mind it is just kinda randomly in the mall. I’d only stop in here if I was already in the mall.

LOVE this place! Sandwiches are awesome. The reason for coming here the ICE AROMA FLOAT. Is to die for! The staff is always friendly and happy to serve you! They always give you a mini chocolate with it! Awesome place to go to with friends or family! :)

Aroma Espresso Bar inside Fairview Mall has a different setup than most of the other Aroma I been to. I do like how it is in the middle of the hallway right underneath the skylight, a great place to people watch while enjoying a cup of coffee.
The Espresso Macchiato I ordered was A-​OK. But of course, I was a little more excited to pair it with the piece of chocolate that came complimentary with my drink.
Aroma is probably the best option inside Fairview Mall if you want a decent espresso drink serves in a proper cup even with a latte art. The other option which is Second Cup, is not even close to what Aroma can offer!

Drinks are really good but the lunch I had was next to tasteless. I ordered roasted red pepper soup that tasted like hot water, chopped salad where the dressing was also like water and bread that was a tad dry. I had to add 2 packets each of salt and pepper to the soup, and they didn’t even bother straining the water from the tomatoes, so the bottom ¼ of the salad is pretty soggy.
I gave it 3 stars is bc of their drinks and their service, which has been excellent every time I went.

I have mixed feelings.
The first time I tried their lunch combo was great. I ordered the quinoa salad and the Mediterranean sandwich.
I came back today to try the organic kale salad with portabello mushroom and I was very very disappointed with the quality control over the freshness of the salad. See photo. I picked out about half the salad. I love the flavours of the goat cheese, mushrooms, with the balsamic vinegar and baby kale… I only have beef with the quality of the vegetables. It’s yellow and spotty. They wouldn’t eat it themselves would they?
Torn wether I should go back… and I just when I got excited that a ‘fast food’ joint served organic salad.

If you’re always on the look out for a good mixed salad (w/​wo meats) this is za place. Oh! and the beverages aren’t too bad either.

Met hubby here after doing some shopping at The Bay & got some cupcakes to try. One red velvet cupcake & one chocolate cupcake. They were both delicious! Good thing they were small, I would’ve eaten more but this helped satify my sweet tooth!

Orchid late is to die for! Very creamy and flavorful. Sweet.

Lately I’ve noticed service has improved. The initial stuffiness has toned down with service now friendly and relaxed.

Never eaten at this place before, but it’s always crowded and I decided that must mean something. I was running errands and hadn’t eaten the whole day, so decided to finally give this place a shot. I ordered a chicken sandwich and iced tea.
The iced tea doesn’t appear to be iced tea. It was a dark reddish colour and tasted like very watered down pomegranate juice. It was inedible. It was super gross. I was thinking that maybe they made a mistake, but I can’t see on the menu anything else it might be and the girl who took my order, poured the drink and gave it to me SAID it was iced tea. Sooooo ew.
Sandwich was alright, but just alright. The «aroma sauce» which is a garlic mayo of sorts was good and the roasted red peppers and mozzerella on the sandwich were good. The bread was good, but the chicken was the sort of cheap, crappy chicken you find at Subway, where it’s a sort of compressed chicken-​like white meat, with fake grill marks on it. It had no taste and really took away from the overall sandwich.
There are soups, salads and of course hot beverages served at this place as well, so I’m not writing it off just yet, but this was not a good first impression.

Located inside Fairview Mall, this Aroma location has a food court style layout. In the middle of the mall they have their espresso bar set up with a few tables and chairs spread out. One can sit there and have lunch or a beverage as shoppers walk around them.
Aroma has a nice selection of Israeli sandwiches, salads and pastries. They have a nice variety of beverages too: espresso drinks, teas, smoothies, fresh juice etc. The espresso drinks here are great! They use Arabica beans that give a natural sweet riches to their coffee.
I tried their marshmallow hot chocolate (white available too) and it was the best! They use actual pieces of chocolate and steep that in frothy hot milk, add gigantic marshmallows and dust the drink off with chocolate. I expected this drink to be too sweet, but it was just perfection. Perfect drink for winter! Also, they give milk chocolate on the side with any espresso drink.
The staff here is fast and nice, the drinks are average price but the food here can be pricey for the amount they give you. Also, they could do a better job with cleaning the tables here.
Overall, Aroma Espresso Bar is a good place to grab some delish coffee or some pricey food items. I look forward to trying their orchid latte and Turkish coffee next time I come here.
