Never sure what to expect from a storefront type restaurant/café, but I felt like we entered another world once we stepped in. Very modern and feng-shui-ish. Ordering from an iPad was unusual for me, but fun to see the full-color pix of what I was considering. Pricing for tea and sandwiches seemed a little high, but typical for the area. I loved the presentation of the tea--a little platter complete with a shot glass of tea leaves to savor, and a tiny cookie. Very tasteful. My panini was delicious. This would be a great place to come and just hang out. (Beautiful bathroom, too!) read more

Cute place and good coffee! I'd be a regular only if I didn't live so far. Aroma Craft is located in a somewhat industrial area amongst other businesses. I had slight difficulty finding this place. There's ample parking, which is a definite plus. The inside of the coffee shop is so cute. It has an earthy feel to it, with wooden coffee trays and little trinkets throughout the place. Made my coffee drinking experience great :) They offer coffees, lattes, food, desserts, affogato...all the works. And they all look delicious. You place your order(s) to the friendly baristas at the counter and then you find a spot to eat, whether that's at the little bar, bench, or table. I ordered a hot creme brulee latte (I'm a big fan of those and am picky on how they're made), and enjoyed it 120%. No burnt taste, not too sweet, and creamy. It even came with a cute jam-filled cookie! Will definitely be back to try other coffees, lattes, and food. I'll be recommending this place to my coffee lover friends. read more

Aroma Craft Coffee - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Walnut, California

Do come here if you want good tasting coffee, which is roasted in a micro-roastery daily. Don't come here if you 1) like being on the internet/your phone; 2) like taking photographs of the stuff you eat and drink; 3) love your pet. As a Yelper, you can see how you'd might have problems with at least two of the three rules at Aroma Craft Coffee. Much like brave Yelpers before me, I risked it all to capture a few photos of what I ate and drank here (and since they don't provide WiFi, I used my regular cellular data plan). To drink, I went with an iced Americano. The coffee was a medium roast with a lovely coffee smell to it and slight acidity. I was offered cream, but politely declined (as I enjoy coffee "black"). When brought out to me, it was on a tray, along with a "shot" of coffee grounds to smell prior to enjoying my drink. I thought this was a "cool" touch to the whole coffee experience. The coffee was also served with a small, sweet, sugared butter cookie with some type of jam/jelly sandwiched between. To eat, I had the California Avocado Toast. If you love avocado, you should love that his dish has almost two whole avocados on it, thinly sliced and neatly stacked atop scrambled eggs, leafy greens and toast. There is a sweet glaze which goes atop the avocado, along with two halves of a cherry tomato. The only thing I didn't enjoy about this dish were the eggs, which seemed to be steam or boiled, scrambled eggs. Being that the avocado is so mushy already, having the eggs scrambled and cooked the "traditional" way might have given this dish a little more texture and perceived substance (it also soaked the "toast", making it mush bread). Perhaps the staff here saw through me - knowing I'd be snapping secret photographs and posting online, but I felt like each smile and act of hospitality was forced. It could also just be the way I felt, since you're warned before walking in you're not allowed to take photos and stuff. Either way, it kinda bummed me out about trying this place out. read more

I have been here a lot of time. I think the quality of coffee went to a significant downfall compared with my first cup here 2 years ago. I'm not here for food, and I believe this place is well known for serving speciality coffee. Just like they offer blue mountain, geisha, and lots of other single origins coffee. I really also like their summer espresso and maru, it's very impressive and creative. Speaking of the reasons, The pour over and espresso drink I have tried over the pass few month were inconsistent and not good. Espresso is usually are unpleasantly sour, tasted like under extracted. Latte has some kind of papery flavour onto it. I'm not certain if this is caused by using paper straw. Speaking of only offering paper straws, it is probably the worse thing in this cafe. (I'm not sure if they have make any alternatives yet) Like me, I'm sure a lot of people cannot finish a drink quickly, over time the straw starts to break down and bent, what a pure bad experience. I understand the concern of the environment but that paper straw definitely not only give customer bad experience but also affected the coffee taste which goes again serving "specialty coffee". I would much prefer a lid with a drinking spout which even Starbucks knows what they are doing even tho they are known as serving shit coffee. Pourover drink is okay sometimes but also inconsistent. I have had few cups here tastes really good ( fruity/sweet) but sometimes tasted like soy sauce. Their coffee beans is also another story to me. I loved their beans alot. Always order them every months. But what I found out is their beans are not that fresh. I don't know when their roasting schedule but usually they are pretty well stocked with beans that are older then 3 weeks. Also they have increased their price of some of their beans a lot. As a customer I would much prefer to buy a bags that is 1-2 weeks old. So I can take my time to finish the bag, and I can also observe the flavour profile myself overtime. 2 months ago I again bought one of their beans, I was rush and didn't check the date. I wouldn't buy anything if I know it's older then 2weeks. They said they cannot exchange it so I think I will be my last bag from this shop. They told me their bean can stay fresh up to 9 month if it's not opened. Excuse me? This is a roaster not your regular Grocery store right? That's nonsense to me, if that can stay fresh that long you no roaster will roast bean every week. Or you must hv some dark technology. Also their bean bags are not sealed which age much more easily. Whats the point to buy a bag to leave it unopened for that king anyway while everyone are roasting fresh beans!? I don't know why you would still call it fresh tbh. Hence for all these reason I think it's reasonable to give 3 stars only from a specialty coffee lover perspective. Hope you guys will make changes. read more

I really like their food and coffee. It's a coffee shop but theirs pasta is surprisingly good. The only thing I don't like is the wait time. The sit-down dining time at weekend could up to an hour. The outdoor chair is not really comfortable. read more

Great for afternoon tea with friends. Highly recommend the Egg Benedict's, absolutely delicious. The lemon tart was also delicious, it paired perfectly with the pour over coffee. However we didn't enjoy the blueberry cheesecake as much, it lacked a more traditional cheesecake texture that's more dense, instead it had a mousse cake consistency which we didn't prefer. Seating is limited, so prepare for a decent wait especially during holidays and weekends. read more

Sanda was great. I've only been here couple times so I have no idea what to order. She was kind enough to explain her favorites and how they make it. I was there was a client and she made some very good recommendations. Both of us loved our drinks. this is probably the third time I've been here? And the normal girl that is there is so rude. Made me not want to go back but because my client wanted coffee that's why I went. Sanda changed the whole experience. read more

OMG! This place is simply amazing. I love the decor, the service, the general cuteness of the place, the amazing coffee and the generous food portions. My friends and I treated ourselves to Aroma after a nice hike and I decided on the avocado toast which was extraordinary. So much avocado on an amazing slice of bread with eggs to boot. The coffee is super delicious as well and I am kicking myself for not taking some home to enjoy throughout the week. Dont let the exterior and the industrial surroundings fool you! read more

A very cute stop in a random industrial part of the city. Parking in this plaza is slightly insane especially in the afternoon, but once your spot is secured, you're in! I've been to this place twice and the workers never fail to make me feel content and happy. They are very helpful when you check out the menu, they talk to you, and seem to enjoy their lives unlike me who needs a cup of coffee (JK). So, you order first, take a seat, and absorb the decor. Photos aren't allowed but you can take pictures of your food! My favorite sweet from here is the French toast. They give you four slices and it is just the perfect amount of sweetness. I've also had their cappuccino with a matcha top which was perfect for a wake up. I also had a really milky drink which I've forgotten the name of! After you drink, they give you a cute, small sweet to take out the bitterness. A very cute place, slightly pricey, it perfect wake me up. read more

I order Syphon hot coffee and americano hot coffee I wait 30 minutes it takes more than food

I was pretty impressed with their food presentation. It is definitely Instagram Worthy. Their foods are so delicious and I liked their coffee espressos. I read that they don't allow people taking photos but I took pictures of my foods and they didn't say anything. The only thing I don't like is their location. It is not so appealing from the outside. However, I love their clean modern atmosphere inside. It was very inviting and comfortable. I will definitely come back. read more

Nice little coffee shop in the heart of Walnut! It seems like this place serves more than just your pastries to go along with your coffee. They have a full blown breakfast menu! I chose to go for a cold brew, but was confused when the barista asked if I wanted it poured or in the bottle. When I asked if they made the cold brew in house, I realized they actually brew in-house and bottle their own cold brew! Super cool! Definitely went with the brew in the bottle for the coolness effect. The cold brew was smooth, light and a little earthy Pretty nice decor around the shop with a decent amount of seating for a small place. I absolutely LOVE the woodwork in the shop (shown in picture). Next time I come, I'll definitely have to try their breakfast foods - they look super good! read more

this is my second time here today i waited a bit longer than before for my food. i think maybe the kitchen was backed up bc everybody else's food came out pretty late.. (overheard some customers complaining) i got the iced sea salt caramel latte: it was okay, in my opinion i think there was too much milk but in general it wasn't too horrible. my friend didn't like her coffee cus she said there was too much almond milk the smoked salmon toast was good but i felt like the salmon was too salty, but i also tend to find a lot of foods too salty, so it might just be my tastebuds hehe the avocado toast was good too! everything on top was stacked rly high so kind of annoying to eat but good nonetheless. mushroom toast was probably my favorite! the mushrooms were super yummy and the egg was very fluffy! but same problem: difficult to eat even with fork and knife overall everything was p good except the wait for the food cus we were super hangry but i'll definitely try this place out again! the paninis look amazing read more

Coffee menu selection is good however I really wish they had a decaf option as I like to go here on my afternoon office break and caffeine will keep me up til the early morning if I have it in the late afternoon. I really do like their green tea tart because it has red bean inside which was a nice surprise the first time I had it. There are plenty of seats inside and I like that they take their coffee pretty seriously here. I'm gonna try it out for lunch one of these days since it's pretty close to my office and they have some decent food options as well. Great place for a coffee meeting as well. read more

I think 2020 is the year I'll be picky. Or maybe just when I'm in LA. Aroma Coffee is a super cute place in a somewhat remote location with delicious food and drink items. I got the avocado toast for $9 (comes with egg too) and a lavender latte with almond milk (the only non dairy milk option) for $6. Both were delicious and filling and actually felt worth the price. However, since I'm being picky, here's some things I felt like could be improved upon: 1. There's a no photo policy of the place. Food photos seem to be ok, photos of the area are a no go. From other reviews it seems like it's because they don't want photo-goers to ruin the relaxed vibe of the cafe. Which ok sure but the place is so loud (no insulation to absorb the noise from the bar or from resturaunt guests talking) that I didn't exactly get that relaxed chill vibe. 2. The avocado toast has a slight asian flavor to it from the sweet soy sauce (or some semi sweet semi salty sauce) they drizzle over the egg. It's not your classic lemony salty peppery combo you'd expect from an avocado toast. Not a necessarily bad thing but just a heads up its different. 3. The ordering system could be improved. You order at the register up front but there's generally a short line and no menus before you get to the register to help you speed up the ordering process (hence a line forms as people wait for the person in front to decide what to order). If they were to have some menus placed at the entrance, this could speed up the process and efficiency. All in all this is one of the few cafe places I've tried in LA that I actually would come back to and all my nit picky comments are just because LA food prices have me slightly jaded and expecting 110%. read more

It's amazing that they are still open for business during COVID. The staffs were super friendly. Desserts are the best dishes on the menu I would recommend other than other delicacies and drinks. I would definitely recommend this place to others. I hope to have the dine-in experience in the restaurant after COVID instead of the takeout to enjoy the full experience. Stay strong! read more

I love their Avocado Toast! It's very filling and delicious for how fresh the ingredients are. The sauce is definitely what ties everything together. However, there is one complaint that I would have to say, my parents went there one day and even though they didn't seem too busy, my dad ordered two items but did not get their food and was waiting for over 30 mins. Since my mom has only 1 hr break for her lunch, my dad ordered before she came and she thought she would have enough time to go eat and go back to work since she works close by. However, while waiting 45 mins, she asked one of the employees where the food was, and all she said was that they are still preparing the food. Without even asking her what her food number was to go check on it. I do recommend the business to teach the employees to try to accommodate people waiting for food if they were gonna have to wait for that long. By that time, my mom had no time and had to go back to work and ask for a refund. The person taking the order should've told my mom that the food was going to take a certain amount of time to make to estimate whether or not she could stay and eat. Besides that, I do like their food but now my dad refuses to go here. I hope next time my parents don't need to wait that long. read more

Great breakfast! We r not from cali but will try to visit here whenever we are in the area

Workers here are so kind and accommodating. It's a bit pricey but so worth it! I asked a question about the menu and let them know my dietary restrictions and decided I couldn't grab a bite to eat but grabbed coffee anyway, and they kept coming up to me till they found out something I could eat! They are amazing here! read more

Came for a girls lunch Friday around 11:30. Loved the decor and give of the whole place! Although it is small and was busy that afternoon so it took some time to get a table that sat 8. You order at the counter and they only have 2 menus; 1 on a tablet by the front door with wonderful pictures. The 2nd is on the counter which made ordering a slow process. Unless you've been here before and know exactly what you want you're having the decide at the counter or wait in line as those in front of you decide. My biggest suggestion is yo have menus more readily available. The server's were very nice and wanted to make sure your drink is perfect. While serving 1 of my friends a little of her latte spilled, so the waiter quickly apologized and removed it to make it perfect again. Food was AMAZING and large portions, with a whole avocado on the avocado toast! Would definitely come here again, as a coffee lover I need to try all their wonderful creations. read more

I believe this place is not family friendly. They don't have high chairs for toddlers.

Really cute cafe, (went here last year when indoor seating was a normal and covid didn't exist...) Love their indoor ambience! Even now walking in there is a quaint warm feel, very woodsy and well-spaced. Their outdoor seating is well-spaced, love the coffee burlap bag decor that they have set up outside! Coffee snob review (no thank you to over-roasted tar-tasting coffee) Gibraltar: great flavor to their espresso! On a whim, got their kale mozzarella panini, which was also super tasty! Loved the other additions inside: great flavor balance of savory, slight acidity with the tomatoes, rather satisfying! read more

Since my last visit 6 years ago, the owner has changed which means the staff, menu, and set up changed as well. This cafe is A LOT BETTER with really patient staff helping you out and is very nice welcoming you at the door till the very end of your visit. I came on an afternoon to catch up with a friend and we both ordered drinks and shared a dessert. Sea Salt Caramel Coffee is really good, not too sweet and has the flavors that go really well together. Yet, I'm not even a coffee drinker. We also ordered the trio cake that were flavors pumpkin, coffee, and chocolate. Not too sweet and great size! On my most recent visit, I noticed added summer menu items and tried Mango Ice Cream with Black Tea $6. FANTASTIC COMBINATION!!! Super refreshing. I also saw this other item of Ube Ice Cream, but it's a Sundae, so if I come with more friends I'd like to try that. For lunch, I ordered Mushroom Toast on Bread $14 and Basil Pesto Pasta $16. Lots of mushrooms sauteed and sauce was really special. Pasta had a blend of spinach, kale, and some tomatoes. They are always busy yet they manage to still satisfy you with awesome service that makes you feel so pleasant wanting to come back. Great environment to meet up with friends, enjoy yummy food, or even work and meet with clients. Customers varied in age. Highly recommend!! read more

I can't believe I did not find this place sooner! My little sis invited me to have brunch and told me this place has the best avocado toast! She wasn't kidding! They definitely made my top 5 avocado toast places! The toast was still super crunchy and the egg was cooked to perfection! The avocado roasts was a bit different from what I'm used to having but it was perfect with every bite! The French toasts was okay I can make better at home. Their coffee is super delicious!! And desserts were to die for!! It wasn't super sweet and was just the right amount of sugar needed to balance out the perfect meal. The blueberry cheesecake is a must... it's not your regular cheesecake texture, it reminded more of a mousse but the flavor was all there. The matcha tart didn't have your regular tart crust but it was a good combination with the red bean in the middle! Loved it! I would totally recommend this place and i plan to come back and try the other dishes... the pasta dishes look amazing!! So does the eggs Benedict! read more
