I got my coffee at around 1PM the blonde girl that served me absolutely made my day. So sweet & went the extra mile to do latte art on my latte I was so impressed. read more

They have so many outlets here perfect for charging your electronic devices and study all day/all night! They serve bliss bakery goodies, the red velvet cupcake being yummy, although my partner thinks, its too cream cheesy! Earl grey here is pretty light and not too strong in flavor, but good, but seems to have a decent amount of caffeine in it! They serve beansmith coffee using a kickapoo roaster which is really good too! Oh and Ive been to their cupping events and visited them on the caffeine crawl which was informational and fun! Probably the best coffee shop in old market actually! Happy cuppings! read more

Wow spacious it is. Nice decor and padded seats lol. Seriously nice furniture, and a nice social atmosphere for friends and studying. Unfortunately, fresh out of Greek yogurt today. Nice friendly service. read more

Hardy Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Great seating and friendly staff. The coffee is just okay. I tend to get the drip coffee to avoid all the sugars of their specialty drinks, and it's a little too acidic for my taste. The location is great however and makes for a good study spot. All of the tables are spread out due to COVID, which I appreciate! I will probably come back out of convenience and because the staff is so friendly! read more

Probably my favorite downtown coffee shop. This is a great stop for a high-quality latte or some fresh beans to grind yourself if you're into that (I totally am). The staff are so kind and make you feel like a regular even if it's your first visit. Drinks are ready quickly and it's usually a pretty chill vibe--great if you need to do some work in a quiet spot that's not your home! I definitely recommend grabbing your next morning cup of Joe from Hardy! read more

Very nice, clean, and welcoming coffee shop. Went with my wife and daughter after church on Sun. My wife looked over the reviews and seen many great things were said. The staff was informative, and friendly. My wife asked for something similar to what she gets at starbucks, and the young lady suggested a turtle sub white mocha for dark chocolate. She loved it. My daughter had the oatmeal raisin cookies and a apple juice. She tore it up. Lol. I had a medium turtle coffee and a blueberry scone. Pretty tasty. Faily priced but we will be back. Good ambiance on the inside, but it was a beautiful morning so we sat outside. Great choice. People watched had great conversation, and great coffee. read more

Hardy Coffee - Great coffee, atmosphere, and friendly service. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Hardy Old Market is a go-to coffee spot for coffee and productivity. If I want to work outside of the home office I come to Hardy. Great espresso drinks as well as regular coffee, and the space is large and tables are spread enough to allow work in peace. read more

Terrible. 45 minute wait for a cappuccino only to get a latte. Waste of time got warm milk when ordered a double cappuccino dry just foam. Never come back read more

I m a latte snob. Only get it at Starbucks because its consistent and they will make it right if its wrong. Example no foam and they put too much on. I read reviews about the baked goods here. All true. I had the pecan sticky bun. Light not heavy and doughy. Perfect amount of goo and pecans. Since I did not find a Starbucks in downtown yet this morning I decided to get it here and it was surprisingly delicious. Probably the only independent coffee shop that made me a latte that met my standards. Thank you red hair goddess of the coffee bar ! read more

Hardy Coffee - Pecan sticky bun - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

This is a great little cafe to stop in and get a drink. I absolutely love the apple chai and root beer chai. I haven't had the food but I have tried some of their cupcakes which were pretty awesome. One of my friends is vegan and she has a ton of options to pick from here. read more

I like the vibe at this location. The inside seating is kind of back away from the counter which actually makes it quieter. Not hearing the noise form the counter makes focusing on homework easier for me. The drinks are really good and the breakfast burritos are awesome too. I had the vegan one and it was super filling and tasty. I'd recommend this as a study spot or even a cute date location! read more

Vegan Bliss Vegan cupcake heaven!!! I need to order a sheet cake and normally would make the cake myself but won't be able to. So I searched online and was delighted to find several bakeries that could do a vegan sheet cake. The price here was better than some so I thought I would try Aroma Bliss first. I contacted them through the internet and they got back to me quickly on what my flavor options are and I said I wanted to come in and buy a couple to see if I thought it would be good for my big vegan outreach event. When I arrived I spoke to Phil who had helped me by email and got his advice. I selected two two try. Sad that they charge .25 cents more for vegan, so each was $3.50. HEAVEN at first bite. Anyone wanting a decadent, cruelty free treat, this is it. No one could tell it is vegan, not sure why all cupcakes are not vegan because it is just so delicious. I am looking forward to getting my cake for my event and would recommend them to anyone wanting a sweet treat. Only reason they do not get 5 stars is because I only give 5 stars to a 100% vegetarian/vegan establishment. read more

This is a very awesome coffee shop. There's plenty of seating space inside and out to hang out with friends or study. The espresso is very good with a smooth good flavor and they have a variety of espresso drinks. They also have a good selection of non coffee drinks if you don't want to get too wired. They have a very good and friendly barista team as well. Great coffee shop, I'll be back next time I'm in Omaha. read more

Hardy Coffee - Cortado - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Whenever I visit Omaha, a visit to Aromas is a must. My favorite drinks include the dirty chai, apple cider chai or just a traditional latte. They do it all extremely well. Also, their baked goods are stellar! Bliss bakery, 'Cupcake Wars' participants, are on the forefront of excellent cupcakes. If you like cupcakes, do not miss out on this gem! Plus, we had a caramel roll and it was scrumptious. Plus, Aromas has tons of space to spread out, get some work done or catch up with friends. Staff are always friendly, too! read more

Okay Aromas, I have to bump you down a star. I came in yesterday to study again. And the barista wasn't very friendly at all. Typical, "I'm too cool for you hipster." Who explained to me how to use the iPad to pay. Dude, I've been here lots of times, I can figure out the iPad. Plus...I'm a young 20 something, we're all pretty tech savvy. #justsaying I got an iced mocha and it was $4.50 and it wasn't really anything special at all. I'd stick to their hot coffee options. Also to make things worse, it was ridiculously busy yesterday, which I really just despise. It's a great place to study when it's not crowded. But when it is, it's too distracting to get anything done. read more

A nice and spacious Old Market coffee spot that champions locally-roasted beans. I'm sold. I've had many-a meetings at Aromas and plan on having many-a-more here in the future. I have to say I'm also a big fan of how they moved the coffee bar to the front of the shop -- before there were two separate cashier stands, one in the front for a bakery and another tucked in the back for coffee. Glad they combined the two and eliminated the confusion. They also have giant bags of Beansmith Coffee for sale if, you know, you need a five pound bag o' beans. read more

Large space with plenty of tables. Several baked goods to choose from. The scones ($3) were popular and sizeable. The cinnamon sugar donut was yummy albeit a bit small for $2.50. The drip coffee was somewhat bitter. Fast free wifi. Clean restrooms. A good place to meet up for coffee, study or make use of the free wifi and stay warm. read more

Love the smell of the freshly brewed coffee when I walked in. Awesome layout of the menu and what the cost of items are. The interior reminded me of a rustic loft in downtown Omaha. The furniture was comfortable and complemented the business as a whole. Dislike the fact that employees don't greet when customers come into their business. Kind of threw me off and this isn't my first time being here and this happening. Overall it was a good experience and great coffee. read more

Hardy Coffee - My cup of dark chocolate mocha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Not being a big coffee drinker, what appealed to me the most about Aroma's was the bakery selection and a quiet atmosphere to get some studying done. I LOVE cinnamon rolls, so I decided to enjoy one while I studied and let's just say I spent more time delicately eating the roll more than focusing on my academics. Delicious! Only thing that somewhat bothered me was that the rolls were not covered at the counter but I decided to look passed that. Also, I wished it was toasted to warm it up instead of the microwave cause it got tough within 5 minutes or so. I am looking forward to trying out more of the sweet selection and some of the teas! Really enjoyed the atmosphere and definitely beats the library, but is still quiet enough to get some work done. read more

Probably my favorite coffee house in all of Omaha. The atmosphere is clean, cozy, and quiet. The service is good. Plus they also have tables and chairs outside for all you who wish to enjoy your beverages or baked goods outside. A quiet place to sip a hot (or cold) caffeinated beverage and work, this is my first choice. If you're looking to bring a couple friends down to have coffee or tea and chat a little, do not let this review discourage you. It might be quiet but all around, it still have a chill atmosphere where you are safe to mingle. They also have a bakery. It's absolutely fantastic. I believe you can even order for special events. (Totally worth it if you like quality baked goods and you're trying to impress someone!) I had a ginger peach cupcake with butter cream frosting on my last visit that was phenomenal! read more

Fast, free internet ... bottomless coffee ... great location! Parking is on the street but if you park on 11th, the meters allow for longer lingering. They have great coffee and lots of tables (with outlets) if you want to do some work while you're sipping. They also have lots of local artists displayed, with the art for sale, if you want. This is probably my favorite coffee house in Omaha. Love the open brick walls and atmosphere. Just beautiful and comfortable. read more

Aromas comes to my work as a vendor, and I just love them! My favorites are their peanut butter cupcakes, iced coffee, chai latte, and blueberry scones. All are homemade and sooo delicious! Their staff is always so friendly, and I love their style! read more

I loooooove Aromas so much! Whenever I have meetings downtown, I always try to schedule them here. The coffee is incredible, but today I actually tried the chai apple cider, and...YUM! It might be my new fav. If you're around here, definitely go. You will love it! read more

The option to get a handmade single-brew cup of coffee is my baseline criteria for a good coffee shop, and Aromas exceeds that standard with French press, Clever Dripper, and Chemex options, not to mention a lengthy menu of espresso choices. My Clever Dripper was exactly what I hoped for: a medium roast with lots of flavor but not too much sharpness or tangyness. Small groups of people scattered themselves throughout the spacious, industrial/warm shop; only a few people came into the shop in the hour or two I was there, but none of the entrenched customers looked to be in a hurry to leave, either. Finished drinks lay on tables, including my own; I was able to read and listen to music on my headphones without having to crank the volume up in order to drown out the store music. As a visitor to Omaha, I feel that Aromas acted on behalf of the city in graciously extending a place for me to relax and enjoy a few quiet hours. read more

Live just down the street from this local coffee shop, staff are awesome super nice and friendly! Their calzones are a solid go-to and each day they'll usu have some discount food that you can pick from. Great place between either summer or winter and a sweet location to Jackson St to-do's in Old market! Enjoy!! read more

The first time I came here I made the mistake of getting a flavored latte. I love the coffee taste so for me it was too sweet. Came back for an almond milk latte and it was perfect. I ordered a cake and donuts for a surprise birthday while out of state and the staff was amazing and helpful with the time frame. Not to mention the cake was amazing and the chai donut (which is vegan) has become a staple every time I get a coffee. I have not been to the other locations but the downtown location has sold me, being so cozy and a perfect place to study, get away, or sit outside and enjoy downtowns beauty! read more

I really like this coffee shop and have not been disappointed in anything I have purchased here. I would honestly stop here every morning if the location was more convenient but sadly Jones Street is tore up and such a rough road that I play my visit by ear depending on time and patience. I feel like I am screwing up my vehicle just attempting to drive that road, it is really bad. So I hope they fix Jones Street for you Aromas, I can only imagine your business traffic if the road was not so rough. read more

A cozy spacious coffee shop downtown. What more could you love? My go to is their cold brew, keeps me going & is delicious! Everyone is always super nice & helpful! I deliver groceries on the side & find myself delivering on occasion to them & they're wonderful! Can't wait to go back again. read more

Friendly, knowledgeable staff, good selections, great setup and MOST IMPORTANTLY nicely brewed coffee. I went with the Kenya brew but plan to make it back when in the area to explore more of their brews. Loved the setup at this corner with Aromas, Bliss and Bricks and Morter - seems to be a hidden gem corner. read more

I come to Aromas for the location, particularly their big ol' honkin' patio out front. I got out there on my most recent annual Omaha trip to enjoy the last warm day of the year, even though it was windy and the patio's in the shade of the building. I wish I had brought headphones, because there's no music out there, as it would have made kicking back out there all the nicer. I like the place better with the counter up front. Apparently they've joined up with the bakery that was semi-adjoined, which is a good step. Still the same hipster crowd and staff, but also still the same good coffee. I recall they had three varieties of drip coffee to choose from, with a range of darkness/boldness in the roasts. I had the Guatemalan this last time, and it was really good. They seem to do a pretty brisk business. Place was fairly full when I was in there on a Tuesday afternoon, and it's been pretty full when I've been in there in the past. Good for them: it's a good place. I'll continue coming. read more

Aromas Coffee House is a a gem of Omaha. The staff is spectacular, the drinks are divine, and the bakery items are nothing short of perfect! I've been coming here for years, and it is still my favorite! I highly recommend their turtle, chai, caramel vanilla latte, or toddy, as well as their pecan roll, cinnamon roll, and muffin variety. You truly cannot go wrong here! By becoming an Aromas member, you receive 15% off each time you come in as well as special perks. read more

Visiting from out of town. Excellent latte and all pastries made on location. Highly recommend. read more

Live right above Aromas Coffee shop and can't say my wife and I go any more than two days without getting Aromas coffee. Taste great and is reasonably priced. If your looking for scones or some good cinnamon rolls, definitely go here. The only thing is is that I wish they had warm breakfast food. read more

I haven't been to Aromas in for.ever.... However, friends wanted to meet up for Friday morning coffee and friends are more important than coffee options (sometimes), so rather than argue, I went with the crowd. Well...certainly things have changed a bit. The counter has been moved to the front of the house where the bakery used to reside. The space is, as a result, a bit more open feeling. While they still have a nice selection of baked goods, the service is still slow and a bit spotty. Ordered the pineapple bar upon their recommendation (wrong) and a large coffee. Asked about having my coffee NOT in paper (I hate that odd paper flavor that ruins a cup of coffee) and was denied. Thanks to the 2013 Coffee Tour organized by Sarah G, my go-to coffee places are elsewhere and closer to my home and work, so Aromas will continue to be that spot I pop into occasionally when friends throw out the request. read more

You know I like the windows, I like the outdoors, and the couches were comfy and the wi-fi quick. I honestly cannot remember the coffee. I guess that makes it unremarkable. Bummer if you're trying to be a coffeehouse. read more

Great bakery items, most I assume are from Bliss as it is right next door. The service is a little slow, so if there is a line be prepared to wait a little longer than if were at Starbucks. Not horribly slow, just a relaxed "we're making your coffee with care" kind of slow. Good lattes, and teas with a relaxed atmosphere. You can hang out all day and not be bothered-- yes! They have bottomless mugs if that's what you want to do all day, sit around and study/be on your computer and keep grabbing caffinee. read more

The coffee is great here. Strong but not bitter. They use top quality beans and milk products and homemade pumpkin flavoring in the fall. You can taste the difference. The service can be slow. For example, the barista didn't know how to process my Amazon local deal. The staff are in the lax side, which isn't so bad if you're not in a hurry. I found the cupcakes to be a little on the dry side. I will stick to their coffee! read more

My favorite hot cocoa in the world has now become the worst hot cocoa in the world. Disappointed. Perhaps the guy behind the counter was lazy, perhaps they changed the recipe, who knows. Still a nice place to study, and I'll go back, but can't recommend the drinks as whole-heartedly now that my go-to beverage exemplified such mediocrity. read more

An overall reliable go-to coffee shop for me. Comfortable and spacious. They always play good music and have reliable wifi. It can get really busy depending on what time of day you come, yes. But that's what's expected for a successful lil coffee shop. If you're expecting to have a comfortably easy parking situation then that's your problem. It's in the Old Market so, again, depends on what time of day you come by. There is cheap meter parking on the west side of the building ($.25/hr) and even free parking on the south side if you're willing to walk a block or two. The baristas aren't always the friendliest but I'm not on a mission to be best friends with them so their indifference doesn't really bother me. And it keeps in cheaper for me with not giving me much reason to tip... This place is loved by the downtown locals in general and worth checking out. read more

I really wanted to like this place because it was so cool looking inside. It was really large and open and the back wall had different colored woods that made a wall and it was really cool. However lets first start with parking. There is nothing.. Eventually we found out how to get into the structure across the street but it was $1 so that's frustrating. Once we finally parked and got in the guy wasn't rude but he wasn't very friendly. Just kinda quietly there. My mom got a iced green tea. Basically water. I got the apple chai and it was disgusting. I ended up mixing in half water and it helped but I could barely drink it. The location was cool, and I liked Omaha but I wish I ordered something else.. Maybe this woulda helped. read more
