| - On a quick weekend road trip to CU, I wanted a local coffee shop downtown--and Yelp definitely delivered with all the recommendations for Aroma Cafe!
This is a cute little shop nestled in the adorable downtown Champaign area, and on a Sunday morning, it was easy to get in and quickly get a drink and some breakfast. It's mostly street parking, but I found lots of spots right out front.
The lovely lady working welcomed us right away, and she was very helpful with her suggestions. I decided on a large light roast Ethiopian and an oatmeal, and the Mister got a large dark roast of some sort and a cinnamon roll as big as my head.
The ceramic coffee mugs were huge, and the coffee was delicious. They even had organic cane syrup to sweeten it! My oatmeal was pre-packaged, but it was one of the healthier brands without anything artificial or tons of sugar. The Mister loved his goodies as well.
The interior of Aroma Cafe is very cozy, but we decided to sit on the patio out back. It felt secret garden-ish, and it was the perfect setting for a lazy Sunday breakfast.
If you're in the CU area, then you should totally check out this place. Friendly people, good coffee, and tasty treats... what else could you want?
