Aroma Espresso Bar

I bought a Coffee and chocolate croissant. I’m really hungry but this is Very poor quality.

Out of all the Aromas I’ve been to, this location makes the BEST Iced Aroma Light. It is creamy and delicious, whereas at other locations it looks like watered down brown slush. The classic breakfast is also to die for — I crave their multigrain bread all the time. The only negative is that the service can be slow at times, even at 9am on a weekday when there is no line up.

Located inside Promenade Mall
Got a mocha and also some kind of lemonade type of drink (I forget what it was called)
The mocha was amazing
The lemonade drink was awful
It tasted like medicine but good think I had chocolate snacks from Rocky Mountain which was right next door so that I can wash away that medicine flavour with some sweet chocolate.

I’m only giving this place stars cause their coffee is good. But it’s the slowest service ever. Here on a Sunday afternoon and it’s one barista who makes all the drinks. None of them seem to give a shit that their service is slow. They don’t give free smiles here. And everyone’s waiting for their drinks and frustrated.

I bought a snack here after coming out of the movie theatres with my family. I got the mini red velvet cupcake & mini black out cupcake. They were absolutely delicious! Moist & fresh. Soooo good. Service was pretty standard for a coffee shop within the mall. I would get those cupcakes again they were so yummy.

Slow service coupled with food poisoning made my last visit the worst. The front staff taking orders does not seem very competent or friendly either. I would not trust their quality of food anymore and do not plan to return. What a shame. It’s in such a good/​big location at the mall too.

The absolute slowest coffee place I’ve ever been to.
I clocked the cashier, it took her 11 minutes to take our order.
This lady was fresh off the boat. Israel I’m guessing, from her accent and facial features.
I didn’t realize things moved so slowly where she comes from.
The Americano here is ok. The coffee is ok. Their iced beverages are really good.
I just wish this place understood the concept of «time is money» because it never fails that this place lags.
You also have to keep a constant watch on what they’re making for you. Every now and then they mess up your order in the weirdest way.

I enjoy the fact that Aroma is something different from the typical coffee chains such as Starbucks and what not. They have a nice selection of beverages with or without caffeine and a healthy selection of salads and sandwiches on their menu. Everything is very fresh. I recently had a salad at Aroma and the portion size was fairly big. I am also crazy about their Ice Aroma Float, that’s probably my favourite drink on their entire beverage menu. The down side about Aroma is that they are quite overpriced. For food that you can simply make at home and what not you are looking at over $ 10 for a meal. Beverages are over $ 6. Definitely not an everyday eatery I would say.

Aroma at the Promenade is a nice change from the standard coffee chains for a few reasons: one can actually get lunch there and they know your name (admittedly, they do ask for it).
Salads and sandwiches have been top-​notch and precisely as explained on the menu every time. Specialty coffees and the Ice Aroma are worth it, once in a while given the calorie content for the latter. Standard coffee is average.
One thing about this place that I mind is the ambience. Either the seating area is incredibly poorly laid out or the clientele just likes pushing people around (I believe it’s both). The clientele is mostly noisy and downright rude, and a few of the staff fits right in. If you can get past that, however, Aroma can be a decent, if not crowded, place to grab lunch in the middle of the mall.

Free chocolates make up for so-​so coffee

This place is great! Great coffee. The sandwiches are amazing! Overall great atmosphere and a great place to sit with a few friends

I was on my way to pick up some grocery at T&T after work but I felt a bit on the tired side so i decided to go over to Aroma Espresso for a quick pick-​me-​up.
I ordered a Medium Capuccino unlike last time when I usually order a Latte at any place. Also unlike the last time, the Cap was ready and my NAME was called out when I was just having a seat for a moment.
That was surprising for one thing my last experience, it took them around 10 minutes to get my Latte and secondly I had a couple customers that ordered ahead of me. NO, I didn’t complain about it but what I found WEIRD was that they served my Cappuccino in a coffee mug…
Is it because they do not want to serve a Medium Cap in a Latte cup? The Cap didn’t TASTE any different but the SHOCK of it really made me felt an unexpected experience which kind of awoke me from my afternoon daze.
I was sitting in an INDOOR patio looking outside to the OTHER food court patrons at arms length! Made me think outside the box and say patio’s doesn’t have to be outdoors to be a patio, RIGHT?
All I was missing was a cool mid-​summer nights breeze and I would have fallen asleep sipping my Cap and snoring my afternoon away. I wonder if they can artificially do that in the middle of the mall/​foodcourt?

This place is realy good. I was there for 3 times and they gave me the best service ever! you sould all go there… :)

Since my trip to Israel last spring, I have been itching to go back!
Aroma Espresso Bar helps to take me back, even for a few minutes as I soak up one of their delicious coffees or eat up a snack or a meal from this wonderful café has the Middle Easter and Mediterranean flavour I had during my trip!
I have gone to the Bloor Street location several times but with this new location now open at the Promenade Mall, I can travel a short 10 minutes from my home to Thornhill for a taste.
Like the other locations, the kitchen is an opened concept, so customers can see the freshness and clearful preparation of their food and drinks.
And everything is made fresh to order, not pre-​packaged and made away from the café.
I really enjoy this place for lunch. I either go for a big salad or a sandwich.
My faves include:
— Aroma Special Salad
… a mix of cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion, black olives and a hard boiled egg, sitting on a bed of mixed greens and topped with your choice of dressing and additions such as tuna and/​or feta
— Smoked Salmon Sandwich
… a yummy combo of smoked salmon, tomatoes, red onions, lettuce, cream cheese, all put on freshly baked bread
— Health Sandwich
— A veggie treat of mushrooms, sprouts, basil, topped with sun-​dried tomato spread on freshly baked bread
For drinks, I just love their coffee. It is very flavourful! And I really enjoy their lattes and hot chocolate, which are rich in taste and thick with foam and have a cream texture.
I can’t wait to visit Aroma again because I still have SO MUCH to try on their menu!
