About AROMA COFFEE LOUNGE
On Unit 3 St Mark's Rd, Aroma Coffee Lounge is a coffee shop run by a single staff member who handles the counter and serves every customer.

“What a little gem run by a most pleasant lady and if you are looking for a quiet spot for coffee and a chat near the Leeds university main building this is definitely it ! Withe bonus of a nice terrace … oh and it’s spotless !”

“One of the nicest cakes I've ever had! Service was friendly and fast, and the atmosphere was lovely - thank you!”

“I finally visited this place. One of a few places open at 9am on Saturday. Coffee wasn't bad but great either. Almond muffin I had was dry but not as bad. I dont think it's made here. Most likely bought in. Toilets are behind a counter. My main concern is allergen information. No allergens are displayed as my friend has severe lactose intolerance and when I asked staff I was told they don't have that information. Im sure they have to by the law...but I might be wrong. The lady tried to help me(credit to them) but management needs to work harder on that.”

Customer Review Summary
The friendly welcome from the woman who runs the place is what reviewers raise most, with several calling the staff lovely and the service friendly and fast. Coffee comes next, including a morning cappuccino and two coffees a visiting parent and daughter very much needed. Others single out the matcha, the desserts, a cake described as one of the nicest a reviewer has had, and a milkshake called the best they've had. Reviewers describe the cafe as clean, peaceful and relaxing, with one calling it spotless and another praising the terrace near the university main building. Prices are called reasonable and affordable. The one critical account concerns allergens. A reviewer whose friend has severe lactose intolerance found no allergen information displayed and was told staff did not have it, though the lady who served them tried to help. The same reviewer found an almond muffin dry, suspected it was bought in, and noted the toilets sit behind a counter. Students back at university say they plan to make it their daily spot.
