If you have trouble ordering, or just are an anxious person... These people are so helpful and nice! Like seriously, their aura (heh) is so upbeat and positive. Legit said how do I order a regular iced coffee? And immediately the response was thats exactly how! And theyre very accommodating, I asked for a lot of sweeter and they gave it with no hesitation! Anyways.. yeah I recommend Aura Coffee!
Sweet people. The shop is so cute too. Best coffee I’ve had so far. I was sad there was no local coffee on campus but aura is so close it practically is on campus. Get the oat milk lavender latte!!
I didnt take pics because I literally forgot I was having such a good time. Aura Coffee is so good. Get a kool keith. Also the lunch special I got, the nachos, was absolutely amazing even after I had to heat it up for dinner (my only weakness is not being able to eat that much in one sitting, rip). Additionally, their twitter is hilarious. Its beautiful on the inside and incredibly welcoming, and everyone on staff that I interacted with is so nice. What more could you want from a coffee shop?
You go for the atmosphere not the coffee. Friendly servers and a cozy feel. Its not bad coffee its just nothing exceptional in terms of price or quality
My go-to coffee spot atm. staff is great and the playlists are always fire. keep doing you aura
Our friends went here, and each got different muffins. They tasted so good! I also had the chai latte and I thought it was much better than Starbucks chai latte. Would recommend!
Best in Denton, I’m so glad they opened again! Better than any of the other on-campus options, unique drinks you can’t get anywhere else.
Super chill and inviting coffee house! Great cold brew! Not pretentious. Five stars!
Cant go wrong with an iced coffee. Always a go-to
I absolutely love the Horchata iced coffee, it’s really all I come for but, they have great muffins as well! It used to taste a bit on/off before COVID, so was excited to see when they first opened it tasted amazing & was consistent, for me. As of recently it’s kinda a risk on whether or not I will like it the same way.
Nice an calm place to enjoy your cup of coffee or a sip of tea
Employees are great! Really good coffee.Give them a try.
Fantastic coffee, tea & snacks and equally fantastic staff. I used to come here before Covid and now I’m so glad they’re back open. I’ll be going here all the time. I love this place!!!!
Great little coffee place! Queer friendly and delicious drinks.
Its a nice and small place and the prices are pretty fair.
Rude service, server refused service. Would be 0 stars if possible.It was not because of a mask, it was discriminatory behavior.
I make the drive for the horchata iced coffee, I love that it’s vegan and actually tasted like horchata. When they first opened they were getting it on point pretty much every time. But recently they’ve been pretty inconsistent on making it. Sometimes i’ll have already left the shop and it’s not sweet at all, sometimes it tastes entirely creamier and not the way I initially had fell in love with it. Very hit or miss.
I usually like it here, but today it seemed like they did everything but make my drink :( took too long
The best coffee I have ever had!!! I have class twice a week and always stop in to get a cup of the Hologram drip. The flavors are so unique! Its always the perfect temperature too! They also have huge muffins which are incredible! On top of all that, the employees are friendly, and know their regulars. Way more affordable than Starbucks and a billion times better!!
They have a blender, but they cant make frappes? Not exactly rocket science. The variety of coffees was mediocre, and the coffee I had was bitter. Maybe its a Texan thing, but Washington has way better coffee.
Horchata iced coffee was apparently a favorite but tasted bland to me, not even like horchata. Didn’t like it, will be trying something else next time.
Inside currently closed; curbside walk up window only. Also not open 24 hours as the description says. Please update your description to reflect the current state of business.Edit: added a star for Auras response. But yall should be able to edit your Google business listing. I run two myself. Google My Business creates them automatically but you can claim your business and update its description.
Staff is incredibly friendly! I ordered an iced coffee with their house made sage syrup (yum!). They are actively cleaning and ensuring tables are sanitized before guests can sit down. Its great to hear conversation and laughs of other customers with staff.
The coffee there is so good???
The crew is always spot-on with customer service, food & drink recommendations, and order accuracy. I love love love this coffee shop. The menu is well-curated, the crew is very friendly, the atmosphere welcoming. Easily the best coffee spot in town.
Places like Aura are what make Denton special. They have an extensive menu of coffees, teas, and other beverages and some delicious baked goods. They sometimes host local artists selling ceramics, jewelry, and other crafts.
Of all the coffee shops in Denton I’ve tried I like this one the least. The coffee is always weak and the customer service is just ok. Close to campus, so that’s good, but other shops are better. They may have been better before covid times. Hopefully they improve. I will try them again in a couple months.
Love this place!
Gone here a couple times and it is always wonderful. Kind staff, cool atmosphere, and great drinks! A lot of students go to have their club meetings there and whatnot. Just a generally cool coffee shop all around. Highly recommend.
Great local shop! I bet when pandemic is resolved they will have some great music!
My favorite thing on the menu is the iced coffee but literally everything on the menu is good. I love the openness of the venue and the staff is always lovely!
This is the highest quality coffee available in dfw, there is no comparison. Aura is simply the best.
Ive been wanting to visit the cafe for months but have been too busy to do so, today was my first visit and all I have to say is, Ive finally found my coffee spot.Ive been to various Denton coffee spots but like Cinderellas slipper Aura coffee was my perfect fit. Definitely recommend going here if youre looking for good vibes and adult conversation. Cant wait to go again!😊
Most coffee shops Ive tried have terrible, bitter hot chocolate, but Aura Coffees hot chocolate is wonderful! Perfect pick-me-up on a cold day.
Amazing and incredibly friendly cute staff. Extremely clean. Coffee made with love, precision, and skill. A local favorite!!!!
The baristas make this place great-- of course the coffee isnt bad either! Vegan and meat options for snacks!
Went to see Sundown Collaborative Short Works Festival. Great show. The coffee shop owner is obviously a very awesome person that provided the space. Very cool place with a great funky atmosphere.
My fondness for this cozy, creative coffee shop grew and grew as they continued to cater to my insomniac lifestyle. My last semester was pretty tough, and I spent many over-nighters here drinking their delicious coffee and hot chocolates and eating their whole grain bagels. Theyre open 24/7, and Ive never seen them closed aside from maybe.. Christmas. Theyre usually packed, but you can find a nice relaxing time in the wee hours of 4-7am. Because they have big tables, people are pretty chill about letting you sit with them and get your study on.
Saw the Canna Butter on the counter. Made me lol.
Friendly staff, fair prices, and great specialty drinks! I love and miss the matcha mango.
Gayest place in town
Matcha Mango smoothie is THE best and the Kool Keith is Always tasty
It’s cute but the smoothies are ok.
Love their coffee, but not their espresso. Its simple in there, which I love. Not all fancy and overdone, just a coffee shop. Better in the summer because of the lack of students and traffic. They also have some awesome vegan options. I love their quiches, too.
Good coffee and I love their spinach & artichoke strudel.
Aura is my favorite coffee shop in town! However, its not 24 hrs advertised on Google. Most days they are open 7am-7pm, so watch out before you show up when they close!
Nice atmosphere. Good coffee and tea at a good price. Save a buck and BYOC (bring your own cup)
Conveniently located adjacent to UNT campus. Ideal for walking from school, though parking is almost non-existent at daytime. A little bit pricey, especially if you tip! Also I wish it had more independent tables and chairs instead of ones side by side!
Really tasty. I tried a latte with almond milk and their homemade lavender syrup and wow, Im impressed. The espresso was bold and smooth with no acidic aftertaste, and the lavender was really pleasant and natural taste. It was just the right amount of sweet. Also, the service is on point. 👍 If youre near UNT, go here!
Great flat white. Great smoothie. Really comfortable places to sit. Full of students studying so you can also stay all day and work. Good old school coffee shop.
Very good coffee and loose tea selection. Reasonable. Hardly a chair free due to studying students. Nothing but long, family style tables and wooden chairs.
This is a quaint and cozy coffee shop. The baristas are really friendly, the coffee is good, and they have a rewards program that earns you free drinks over time. Aura Coffee is not a library, so obviously people might be talking to each other. I still find this to be a great environment for reading or studying.
The food and coffee are pretty good. However, the food will be served cold. How a coffee shop that hires an on-location chef doesnt have a warming counter is beyond me. There is also no real sense of urgency, so if you need a quick coffee before class, youre better off going to Willis.
Love their coffee. The atmosphere is amazing but it could use some more seating.
Always a favorite with my family. A local coffee shop, open Sunday mornings! They even have vegan, dairy free, and gluten free options.
Clean restrooms, decent friendly service, good coffee, fairly cozy, and super fast wifi. I went to enjoy a cup of coffee and do some homework, although it was loud, only loud because the grad students at a table in the back did not know how to use thier inside voices, this will not discourage me from trying it again.
Super cozy, plenty of seating (rare in Denton coffee shops on a weekend)Awesome customer service, good coffee, and college friendly prices. New favorite coffee shop for sure.PLEASE OPEN I need yall
Amazing staff and product. I love coming here to study, read, and meet up with friends
Counter Culture americano, vegetable curry puff pastry, chocolate walnut biscotti. Yum!
Good local place to get coffee or tea, a big student/TA hangout spot, rightfully crowded during the weekdays
I went here today to get a smoothie. Great service and a great vibe🤙I can only imagine their coffee is just as good
Great place to sit down and enjoy a cold or hot beverage. Trying to finish that essay, but also love that coffee house ambience? Heres your perfect match, baby!
Amazing little coffee shop riddled with college students, like myself, that need an extra shot of coffee to keep our school-fueled adventure sustained a couple extra hours. They have a dazzling amount of eclectic coffee choices and some baked goods that will surely compliment your Aura Coffee experience.
Great coffee and a cool environment. I would definitely recommend this place, and have been back a couple times.While it can be a little pricey, I think it’s totallyWorth it.
Walking distance from campus, this coffee shop is a hub of local culture and is an awesome place to study. I appreciate the fact that they are a place where you can get registered to vote too!
Really love the strong coffee they serve here. Sometimes can get a bit pricey. Service is fast and the overall vibe is pleasant.
Thank you for responding to my review. I understand your concern to know the reason behind the one star.I went to Aura Coffee at about 4 to 5 pm. The coffee did not taste right, it felt like it was made earlier that day.There were people who were speaking loudly that i needed to put my headphone in me ears to be able to read my book. No one cared to ask them to be quieter so other customers could enjoy their reading or studying.I understand yall care about those customers but as a customer myself, id rather chill and drink my coffee in a quietier place.I wish this business all the best.
Aura is where to find the best tasting coffee, and friendliest baristas in Denton.
Great place ALWAYS OPEN .Excellent service . Parking can be tricky . A nice hideaway for some quiet and a bite .
Great place to study, the noise level is low and almost everyone else was also studying. They have wifi, just ask for the password. The coffee is really good, and I am a big coffee fan. I asked the barista for a reccomendation for a sweet coffee and he reccomended the something Keith which I LOVED. The staff is very kind. Also there are LOTS of outlets available and the seating is pretty cozy. This is my new favorite coffee spot!
Aura has always been an amazing coffee shop because of the selection of coffee and the ambiance, but they have really gone above and beyond this time. They have a private room in the back that is used for all kinds of academic and extra-curricular groups, and I called to see if it was available for my class at UNT to do a reading at the end of the semester. They booked it for me immediately! I was so impressed with the level of service I received, and I can’t wait to get my students out of the classroom for our reading 👍🏼
A good place to study or meet up. Good coffee and they have great breakfast snacks if you can catch them!
Aura Coffee is a good place to grab coffee between classes. Its definitely a college hangout. The seats are pretty close together, so its almost impossible not to overhear other customers conversations. Its got a great community vibe.Tip: Dont sit at the table closest to the front door. The air vents are pointed right at that spot. Last time I sat there, my notes blew away.
Super great! Free WiFi and great coffee! Also in love with the plants :D
This has become my regular before and after school spot at UNT. The staff is incredibly friendly and the food is amazing. The coffee is pricy, but its worth the cost. Ive never been served anything I did not absolutely love and Ive had black coffee, iced coffee, lattes, cappuccinos, espresso, hot tea, cold tea, pie, coffee cake, and a pig in a blanket. Everything has been absolutely delicious. This place is amazing. If you want quality coffee and to support a local business, I highly recommend this place.
Good study spot. It’s pretty pricey, but hey. At least it’s tasty local coffee.
Great coffee and usual college study hub.
I cant express my feelings toward Big Mikes. The staff really knows what theyre doing. If you dont know what you want just ask them. No matter what you get you cant go wrong. Big Mikes is what I compare every coffee shop too. Kool Keith for life ✌
Best tasting latte i had in years. Great froth consistency, nice motive but above all fantastic taste! This comes very close to what you get in Italy. Excellent!
Never a line, lots of delicious options but i always go for the horchata ice coffee since i tried it! perfect spot to run to grab some coffee between classes💗💗 fast and friendly
Yummy yes, EXTREMELY over priced though.. Came here thinking I didnt want to pay $4 for a simple drink at Starbucks. Paid $6+ for a 12oz iced coffee. If youre rich, have at it. If youre a typical poor college student then its not for you. Not coming back.
Fine spot to get some work done or just listen to music and read somewhere out of your bed.
If this place had free refills it would be a 5 star coffee shop for sure
Awesome place to chill and drink good coffee. I only like black coffee, so Big Mikes is great for that. Its long been a solid Denton staple. They have Avoca coffee beans as a regular, and consistently offer different guest roasters. I dont like other coffee drinks, so great black coffee is all I need to be satisfied. And many places (especially chains) dont have that.
Good coffee, actually quiet enough for conversation or productivity, ideal location!
Great local hang out with fair trade coffee. Good vibe to the place with lots of plants and natural light.
Lots of students filled every seat in this ace on a Sunday. The barista was friendly and informative. I mean Holy Kombucha!
Bomb coffee, awesome baristas, worth your time to experience! 5 stars easy.
Great coffee, tea and smoothies. Discount if you bring your own mug. Great customer service
Good coffee and a cool grungy vibe. Music can be a mixed bag, based on the barista. No longer open 24 hours which kinda sucks. Combined with the fight of trying to find a parking spot if you dont live within walking distance kinda makes it a real shame I probably wont be back
After checking out the various coffee shops Denton has to offer, I found this one to be the better choice when it comes to looking for quiet, tables, and access to outlets in order to study( this will probably change during the start of the fall semester). The coffee was good. The Service was above par. I didnt have the food so I cannot comment correctly.
The atmosphere is super nice and the food delish.
The drink is great! However, I found the food is a bit pricey. Friendly staff!
