Not safe for allergies. I’ve had aroma many times but today I came to this location and asked for two cookies that I know do not contain nuts. I informed the lady at the cash that I have a nut allergy and she pulled the cookies from a jar using the same tongs she just pulled an almond biscotti with. May contain is a normal issue but purposely ignoring the alleged like this is a huge hazard. Luckily another staff member pulled new cookies using a clean utensil once I asked.

I’m sorry but can someone please tell me how a sandwich, salad and a sparkling water costs $30.34 ?!? Seriously. This is Ontario, not Denmark for Christ’s sakes ?And my chicken and avocado sandwich didn’t even have real avo! ?? Appauling.
Sorry, won’t be back here for lunch. Would rather plop myself down at a nice sit-down restaurant and order a proper entrèe for that price.
Byeee✌?

I finally had an opportunity to use the Aroma gift card I had received when we decided to go to the AGO. This location, north of Toronto General Hospital, is a bit of a walk, but it was a lovely day and we were up for it. The decor is quite lovely with comfortable bench seats on both sides, padded chairs at the centre tables and ample bistro chairs for those who want the street view. Also worth noting are their sturdy, metal, clawfoot tables that presumably won’t become annoying “wobbly tables” that most commercial use, cafe tables eventually become over time. No question that the prices reflect the ambiance and location but nonetheless, a very nice prelude to our AGO trip.

Disappointed to open my takeout soup when I arrived at my destination to find the container is only half full. At $8 and change after tax this is really disappointing. When I saw the bowl size sample at the cash I thought, ok that’s fine for this price; seems like a lot, but I opened it and it’s not even 3/4 full. The lentil soup itself was tasty but at this price point and underfilling I won’t return.
EDIT thank you for reaching out to make this right. My replacement soup was made right and filled adequately.

I don’t have any issues with the quality of any of my orders, however the prices are skyrocketed, especially the sandwiches and whatnot. Lord forbid you order a full size sandwich (which is literally just regular sized bread) instead of half, you’ll go bankrupt. I’m not sure how they optimize their prices, but I know aroma caters more to higher paying customers, but it’s really not worth it. I just couldn’t handle the prices so I will not go anymore. Your sandwiches are simply not worth that much. I can go to somewhere like State & Main, order a 16 dollar sandwich that comes with a side, with full table service. Your pricing just does not add up!

If your goal was to boycott Starbucks this place ain’t the replacement. Find your local Palestinian shop instead ◡̈
My mom and I love going to Aroma for brunch. Last week, we visited and were assisted by the barista, Chris. Unfortunately, our experience with him was disappointing. He barely looked up while taking our order and interrupted me after my first drink order, asking if that was all. There was no line, so it wasn’t due to being busy.
After we completed the order, I specified that it was for here, not to-go. While his coworker was setting up the tray with a teacup holder, Chris told her to remove it and placed the latte in a paper cup. When I asked why, he simply said there was no issue and poured the drink back into a mug. Additionally, he didn’t give us a straw or the usual chocolate on the side.
We were highly disappointed and annoyed with Chris, though everyone else was quite helpful and kind. I would advise the store manager to monitor Chris’s behavior.

I recently visited Aroma Café and I must say, it has a very nice setting. The ambiance is quite impressive and it seems to be a very popular place among the locals. However, I found the prices to be a bit on the higher side for the food they offer. On a positive note, they have a lovely patio outside where you can enjoy your meal. The staff at Aroma Café were courteous and attentive, which added to the overall dining experience. I was pleased with the quality of the food they served.

I'm always amazed when I come here. The prices are always so high for such a small portion. I ordered a large mango kale smoothie and the cups here are no where near a large size, at most at other locations this would be considered a small. But anyways, I rarely come here but I was in the area and wanted the kale mango smoothie. Not too sure if they use mango syrup but has a slight taste of mango and no taste of kale. Not too sure how they accomplish this. The drink looks very green and one would think has lots of kale flavor but it doesn't. Not too sure I would order it again especially at this price point.

I ordered a chicken sandwich and the promotion of adding salad, very delicious however I gave it 4 stars because if it had been toasted it would have been better (they didn't ask me if I wanted toasted or not but I imagined that's how they were since in their photos the sandwiches look toasted
