It has a strong and rich coffee taste. You can also taste the cardamom and cinnamon. It wasn't too sweet. The Araysi drink was also good. It is mango smoothie with Vimto drizzle. The basbusa cheesecake was not sweet and delicious. The place was clean. The cafe is pretty big. They have plenty of tables and chairs for customers to hang out and chat. The staff was friendly and nice. They also have a drive-thru. It would be convenient for people who want coffee to go. I would definitely go back to try their other pastries and drinks.

I walked in and said hi to the crew, no one said anything (wondered if I was not loud enough? ) Took no joke 15 min to finally get my drinks I was on the run and just passing through Aurora so i was somewhat inpatient. I like the industrial vibe with a plenty of natural light and seating options. It's a place conducive for computer work or a social meet up. Drinks are average.

I got a decaf espresso tonic which was seasonal and had orange and mint. My sister had a lemonade, my mom had a chai, my dad had black tea, and my brother in law had a strawberry matcha. My son got a butter croissant which he was kind enough to share some with us haha. They brought our drinks out to us which was nice! Everything we got was delivered fairly quickly and was SO good, we all really enjoyed our drinks. Nice vibes in here too. And clean bathrooms. Glad I got to try it!

The menu is simple and easy to navigate, which I actually appreciate -- no overwhelming options, just solid choices done well. The space is on the smaller side, but it still feels open and comfortable. It definitely seems like a great spot to work remotely or knock out some homework. The food was really good, and the coffee delivered too. I ordered my food to go, so I didn't get to fully soak in the ambiance, but the overall vibe was inviting. A heads up: the maple aioli has a little kick to it, but not overpowering. My picture do not do the food justice. I'd absolutely come back, especially to stay and enjoy it next time.

This is the second Krema Coffee location I have visited and was slightly disappointed. The North…read moreAurora location is located off of Randall Rd on the street level of an apartment building. It's a little bit tucked away but they did have plenty of parking. The inside had three areas of seating with tables & chairs and some lounge chairs. I asked the staff member what flavor lattes they offered as the menu was a bit confusing. I had previewed a menu online and didn't see half those flavors listed on the menu board nor by the register. I ended up ordering a 12oz hot honey lavender latte. The coffee beans itself tasted a bit burnt to me which altered the whole flavor of the drink. I also ordered the Bacon, Egg, & Cheese Bagel as they serve Jake's Bagels here. The sandwich was good but could have used a sauce. I also didn't get much of the cheese flavor. My entire order was just over $16 which also felt a bit high for what I ordered. I think this location is cute but could make some improvements to better compete in the area.

I've been to many coffee shops in my life, many of which are good, but not enough to write about…read more Moka is certainly an exception! I moved to the area a few months ago and was looking for a local coffee shop to frequent, tried this place first and now I'm there nearly every week! What really blows me away about this spot is the consistency. I'm usually one who switches up my order, but I can never bring myself to order anything but my usual triple iced half sweet blanco americano. If I ordered my coffee regularly like that anywhere else, there'd be days where I get a good drink and days where I get a not so good drink. Not here. Every single time it's exactly how I ordered it the first time. 10/10, no notes. Along with consistent items, the staff is also consistent in their friendliness!! They're all so sweet and I've had many nice small talks at the window when being rung up.

I drive past this place a lot and there's always a decent line in the drive thru so I was curious…read moreto see what all the fuss was about. Today I took the initiative to actually give this place a try, instead of continuously passing it by. Moka is a cute and small coffee shop that has a pretty broad menu. I was actually surprised at all the menu options. My experience is strictly pertaining to the drive thru. Unlike a traditional drive thru an employee will come outside and take your order face to face. I always like when establishments do this because it makes the experience more personable- and I feel more comfortable asking about menu items. Today I got a medium iced caramel macchiato and the chorizo breakfast burrito. Both were really really good. The burrito comes with a side of hot sauce, and I feel the portion is super filling. My iced caramel macchiato was very tasty, not watered down, and I liked how I could actually taste the caramel. As far as prices go I paid $13.38, it's similar to what I would pay at Starbucks. It can get a bit pricey. Luckily for me- after doing a bit of research I found that Moka does have an app and a rewards program. I just think they should advertise it a little bit more. But other than that I truly enjoyed my first experience here. I'm glad I have another coffee shop to diversify where I get my coffee. Starbucks now officially has a little competition lol!

The service was kind and generous. A warm, inviting, comfortable, classy vibe for this coffee shop. Lots of tables and outlets, which is a plus for working. Also, delicious (not too sweet, which is a must for us!) and unique coffee drinks. We had the cardamom rose latte and honey blackseed latte - in actual mugs when you order for here (woohoo!). Love the "complimentary drink" area where you can pre-pay for a drink for a friend and leave the coffee cup sleeve with their name and a note, waiting for them when they arrive. Overall, a welcome addition to Warrenville! We can easily see the space being used for a business meeting space or event space. The menu for the Fusion Social side of the business looks delicious and intriguing. Can't wait to try it!

I love stopping in for a Turkish coffee or pistachio latte. The Turkish coffee is rich, aromatic, and pleasantly intense, while the pistachio latte is smooth and creamy with just enough nutty sweetness to keep it from feeling overly sugary. The shop is always clean, bright, and welcoming, and the staff are consistently friendly, attentive, and accommodating. Great drinks, great atmosphere, and genuinely good service. And honestly, once you've had a Turkish coffee or pistachio latte here, Starbucks starts feeling a little... pedestrian.

I decided to try The Mufawaar that had a deep rich flavor with just the right balance of spices . It had a unique twist compared to regular coffee. It felt smooth and comforting, something that stands out from the usual coffee shop drinks. But the presentation was good . Along with the coffee , I ordered a Ferrero Tiramisu pastry, which was a real treat. It was soft, layered beautifully, and had just the right touch of sweetness without being heavy. The chocolate and hazelnut flavors paired perfectly with the coffee, making it a delightful combination. I liked the coffee mugs they used I really liked about this place is how it blends traditional Yemeni coffee culture with a modern café feel. This place is spacious enough to sit and relax.

We were looking for a local coffee and donut shop before visiting my girlfriend's grandma and…read morestumbled across this place tucked between Little Pop's Pizza and New China. It was bright, clean, and busy on an early Saturday morning, with a friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. We ordered a box of four donuts along with a Triple Mocha and a Caramel Latte. The total came to $30.92 after tax... ouch. Our coffees couldn't have been more different. The Triple Mocha was smooth, rich, and full of chocolate flavor without being overly sweet. The Caramel Latte, however, tasted oddly synthetic with a slightly burnt finish. If I'd tried them blind, I wouldn't have guessed they came from the same shop. I was happy; she was disappointed. The donuts were fresh, dense, and clearly made with quality ingredients. They were good (not great) cake donuts, but not quite memorable enough to justify the premium price tag. Overall, we enjoyed the experience more than we didn't, and Grandma loved the coffee cake donuts we brought her. The atmosphere, service, and Triple Mocha stood out, while the inconsistent coffee and steep pricing held it back a bit. We'd come back to try their brunch or a few different donuts, though based on this first visit, I don't expect our overall impression to change much. 3.5/5
