Aroma Espresso Bar

Good place to sit and catch up with a friend while people watching

My first time at an Aroma Expresso bar and I loved it. It is a refreshing change from Starbucks, and although I am not a fan of franchised anything, I really enjoyed the ambiance, service and fresh products this location had to offer. Yes they have pastries and snacks, but it was the coffee I came for and they did not disappoint. I went with something very simple. An Expresso with a some vanilla icecream. Simple, but very delicious. I am sold and will definitely try one of their other locations sometime soon!

Mediocre and formulaic. The drinks seem to be manufactured and very artificial. Their food is bland and generic. There are much better options out there.

I love the menus at Aroma, no matter what the location; but, it’s the people at Yonge & Pleasant that make the big difference. Arta, Katelynn & the team are super efficient and are a pleasure to see every morning! Today was the one-​year anniversary and what a treat to receive a free coffee to celebrate. Thanks everyone!

This is where the old Timothy’s location used to be. A block south of Yonge-​St Clair. The name change happened about 7 months ago so all the kinks are worked out now.
They remodelled the interior a bit. So the usual Aroma wicker furniture, metal tables, long faux wooden bar. I prefer the selection of baked goods at Aroma vs Timothy’s. Obviously Aroma is pricier than Timothy’s in terms of drinks and baked goods.
Still have the old patio furniture on the Pleasant Blvd side.
Better bathrooms than the other Aroma locations. As in, the toilets actually flush.
