Aroma Espresso Bar

* Love the ambiance!
* Perfect for quiet, sit down time and enjoy espresso.
* Located at the mall but not inside where it can be crowded. Just perfect!
* Perfect for after shopping cool down or simply taking a break in between shopping.
* Ample open space parking across.

Had lunch at this place and really enjoyed it. Food was really fresh and healthy. Smoothie was also great!

This review is just a quickie as I did not get a real meal here. I got a soy vanilla latte and picked up a croissant in honor of national croissant day for the boyfriend. The latte was average price and average taste, I wouldn’t rush back here for one. The croissants are made fresh all day and when I got it it was hot, that is great and that would be a reason to return.
I have heard the other locations food is good but I guess I will have to try for myself one day.

Love love love Aroma! They have amazing drinks, both hot and cold, fresh bread and delicious sandwiches

Love the power breakfast. Sunny side up to did the wicked bread. Simple breakfast but a nice mix of veggies, goat cheese and feta. London for is a specialty tea. Meal comes fast, but seating area is usually a bit dirty. Overall big fan for a mall breakfast that’s not greasy.

Aroma in Square One has opened for almost a year now and I’ve only been twice. And I love Aroma. Shameful or not?
Ambiance:
I am very happy to see the expansion of Aroma. The location is great if you commute by bus. It is at the entrance across from the bus terminal. I have a bit to walk as I come from the south side entrance.
This location is very small compared to other Aroma locations like Don Mills, Eglinton/​Yonge, Bayview Village, Liberty Village. (I’m not comparing it with Eaton which is inside Urban Eatery or Fairview Mall which is located at the centre of the mall.) It can be hard to get a seat and the narrow hallway toward the washroom is pretty cramped and uncomfortable. The stools for the high tables are very wobbly and I might, one day, fall off the stools. I didn’t feel this is a location where I can bring my laptop to work.
Food:
Quality of the food is consistent. Half chopped salad and half portobello sandwich combo remains my go-​to.
Definitely a good alternative to Tim Hortons and Starbucks inside the mall.

I always get the grilled chicken sandwich or the warm chicken salad with a chai latte or iced aroma and it never disappoints. Pastries and food are fresh. Great drinks. Will definitely be back.

Lovely little patio to have a coffee on a nice day. I’ve had the Aroma coffee, mango smoothie, grilled chicken sandwich and avocado sandwich. All of them were great! Favourites were the chicken sandwich and coffee. A half sandwich is large enough to get you full and the coffee is filled with melted chocolate! Sooo good, especially for a sweet tooth like me who isn’t fond of the coffee taste but needs the caffeine. Worth a visit :)

Favorite place to hang out with friends or write my assignment. Love the cappuccino & croissant combo (⁵⁄₆ dollars) super delicious!

Everything I’ve tried here has been gross, even their coffee drinks. Scratch that, I guess their mango juice was decent. The place is often crowded with little seating offered. The lighting isn’t great either – I’d rather not have all that sunlight in my face.

We’ve been to this location of Aroma twice now. Because it’s in a very busy mall, it tends to be quite busy and a bit noisy, but it’s a very nice location nonetheless.
The first time we were here, I ordered a latte which was delicious and the barista was extremely friendly. My son ordered an iced chocolate (like a thick milkshake) with a scoop of ice cream. His drink was also delicious.
Today my husband and I both ordered the affogato (an espresso with a scoop of vanilla ice cream) because it’s an extremely hot day and we are sitting on the patio. The drinks are absolutely delicious. We may have another :) It was the same barista as the first time I was here and he was equally friendly despite being very busy.
The patio area is very spacious and a great place for people watching.

I went this place several times and coffee tastes good but honestly the place is so loud and the service is terrible. My coffee took more than 10minutes because they missed? my order for some reason, without saying sorry. I had to say what I ordered three times (first when I order, second when my coffee was missed, third they gave me regular size when I asked for large one).

It’s a typical Aroma Espresso bar, I’ve been here 3 times. But, it is horribly noisy. Hard to hold a conversation or even have a bite in peace. Don’t even bother trying to get work done.

Visually appealing coffee shop, beautifully lit (except for the early evening sun — then it’s blinding).
Service at the register was friendly, barista was neutral.
I ordered the Matcha Green Tea Latte, one of my favourite hot drinks. This was one of the worst ones I’ve tried before. The barista put way too much matcha in the drink; I watched him put two scoops of matcha in the cup and I was a little concerned. Sure enough, when I tried it the matcha was overpowering and caused the drink to be pretty unpleasant. As a side note, Starbucks has an awesome green tea latte.

Somewhat difficult to review as I had 1 cold drink, stayed a coupla hours to do some writing… on the coldest day of the Winter!
What drew me here was the view via the floor-​to-​ceiling windows. Instead of being stuck in a cubicle, I opted for a café, with free wifi, and perhaps some background noise. So that’s basically what I got, no surprises there.
Drinks were pricey-​ish, along the Starbuck Grande/​specialty line, ~$ 5. I ordered a Lemon-​Mint Iced drink. Weird, I know, since it was like –15, and I didn’t want anything caffeinated, yet wanted something refreshing.
Music was loud and not the best station.
If you’re there with your laptop, try the lower chairs. Stools were quite uncomfortable.
Tip: Do not sit on the Saarinen-​looking stools! I tried one and it was very wobbly, quite unsafe actually. So I switched to the other one. Not entirely stable, but still a bit dangerous if you have to hop on it with your Winter-​gear on.

Food Quality– ⁴⁄₅

Sandwiches are good.
Service is the slow. Unorganized and no one smiles. I guess they are still working things out. The setup and design is poor so it makes it difficult to navigate…
The bar stools are awkward. Hard to sit comfortably. Anyways I’m glad it’s here as Mississauga doesn’t have many options to choose from
