It is a bright and spacious coffee house, obviously very popular with the Western University students. They also have sandwiches, which I did not try, but they have a good selection. B served me, and she was friendly and efficient. They make their own doughnuts and loaves. I got an apple doughnut. It was filled with apple filling, some cinnamon icing on top, and it was fresh and not heavy. As a tourist, I appreciated not feeling rushed. A very pleasant place to have a coffee and pastry, even if you're not a student.

This bakery has a beautiful assortment of cakes and pastries to choose from. We both had the ham and cheese croissant which had an authentic cheese inside. We do wish it was heated up though. My husband also ordered the cinnamon twist and mentioned that although it looked pretty, it didn't have as much flavor as he would have liked. My cappuccino was so delicious! It is so difficult to find a proper one around here and Pastry Culture gets it right. The art around the main lobby represents Paris culture perfectly and the interior design was very nice. You can see some of the staff hand making pastries in the back room as you place your order at the cash register. At the time of visit, there was a lot of construction going on around the area, but it's totally worth getting through it to try out this spot and setup your laptop for work or have a morning chat with your bestie.

The ingredients are high quality, and the flavours are thoughtfully developed. Pink lemonades are often too sweet, but this one was perfectly balanced. The lemon square was nicely tart, the quiche had generous chunks of feta, and the muffin had that rich, buttery flavour you only get from homemade baked goods. Service was bubbly and helpful, and the interior was quaint. There's just enough seating outside, with a setup that lets you choose between sun or shade. Special mention for offering the London Fog iced; my first time trying it, and it is now my new go-to. Prices were surprisingly reasonable considering the quality. Easily the best coffee shop I've tried in London so far.

So humble and comforting!…read more I was skeptical at first being that it is located in Masonville Mall (not the food court - stand alone location in new part of the mall) but having gone a few times now I have to say it has become one of my favourite places to grab a quick lunch and coffee. The atmosphere is bright and inviting, comfortable chairs and tables (it can get quite crammed if it's busy), the staff is always wonderful in my experience, and the food is always so fresh and delicious. To top it off they have an abundance of drink options as well as pastries for any sweet cravings. I recommend the Aroma Special salad!

Horrible over priced coffee, even worse service!…read more I needed just a regular (read: not fancy) coffee while waiting fir my daughter to finish work to go shopping in Masonville Mall. I had heard decent things about this place (other than the high prices for mediocre coffee/beverages). I just wanted a dark roast, so asked for a medium (16oz) coffee - the darked roast they had on tap. I got my coffee and sat drinking it until my daughter joined me. I watched a man sitting at the table next to me complain about his sandwich (looked like turkey and lettuce and tomato on homemade, thick bread. It was mostly bread, and he was complaining aboutbthat as well as how they used a few pieces of romaine for lettuce to bulk it up. However it was all romaine spine which is nit nice on a sandwich. I felt bad for the guy. My daughter showed up amd I was finishing my coffee which was in a paper to-go cup in case I needed to take it with me. I went to take about my third last sip and almost spit it out all over the table as my mouth filled with coarse coffee grounds. I am not talking about one or two. I am talking about a mouthful. I took my cup to the counter and waited for 3 minutes for the 2 girls behind the counter to finish their chat nefore acknowledging me. I asked to speak to a manager. Anoyher plain clothed young woman sitting at the coffee counter came over and said the manager was busy (I could see the manager in their office with thwir door open and a friend at the door chit chatting...they were busy personally, not professionally. Whatever. I showed this girl my teeth which were filled with grounds and the cup and said I wanted a refund so I could buy a bottle of water to rinse my mouth out. She was all defensive with no apology...just said "someone probably put the filter in wrong". That may well have been true. But I said that an apology and a refund woukd be approproate. And again, she defensively said "I have apologized to you over and over" in a really loud voice that did not warrant the manager to bother with us still, and the girl behind the counter thumped the money on the counter and they BOTH turned their back to me. Super horrible coffee and experience. I wouldn't waste my time on this place. There are at least 3 other coffee options in the mall.

I got together with a friend one Sunday afternoon and we enjoyed a lovely classic English breakfast. It came with 2 scones, clotted cream, locally made jams, and my own beautiful tea pot filled with whatever my heart desired. They have so many options, but I went with the classic Creme of Earl Grey. There is an entire wall of different teas to choose from. The owner is incredibly nice and very welcoming. We had lots of questions before we arrived and she was happy to answer every single one. My friend is gluten free so they ensured they had some GF scones for her meal. They came with a coconut "clotted cream" which was quite tasty. They serve plant based milks with their teas. They have many different types of tea services and events you can enjoy. From outdoor tea ceremonies, Reiki and Cup Tossing classes to clean eating seminars, there is something for everyone.
