Aura Coffee

I'm a newly Denton local and I've had this post on my go to list for ages but today o got the chance to check it out. It is super cute- I think anyone who walked in would immediately feel comfortable. The shop makes a point to emphasize the fact that all are welcome here. They make their own syrups in house which is super rare and I was very pleased with my Sister Rosetta Drink- which is lavender and oat milk. It's the perfect balance of floral and sweet. The baristas are more than happy to customize the drink to make it sweeter.I wasn't a fan of my friend's almond milk drink but she liked it. The one thing I'll say is that there is not a whole bunch of seating available as it's a smaller place- so if you don't mind community/tighter seating then it's totally fine. If you want to come to study you'll have to come when it's less busy. The WiFi is great and was working when I was here.The baristas are super attentive and helpful which I super appreciate!The vibes are most certainly and unapologetically Denton- but if you're not familiar with the area- imagine a mix of Austin and San Antonio.All in all:Drinks: 10/10 Service: 10/10Ambiance: 9/10

Don't recall hearing a greeting when I came in; nor was I asked if this was my first time here. I like the many plants and that some are for sale. It was crowded so I decided to take my food and coffee to go. Small tables are available to eat outside. Disappointed with quality of Sister Rosetta; as I did not taste the coffee. I prefer a balanced latte. I was greatly disappointed that the tortilla was a little burnt on the edge and did not taste fresh. I do not know how you mess up scrambled egg. Furthermore, I did not taste the sausage in the bite I took. I understand this is close to campus and makes sense for the students. For those that can go elsewhere for more seating and better quality of coffee and food I highly recommend it.

A friend and I came in for cortados after lunch one day. My drink was excellent. The vibe here was good as well. If I were around the UNT campus for an extended period, I'd come here often.

Very chill place. The vibes are immaculate, the staff was very patient while we were looking at the menu. Food is a little smaller than expected when you compare to the prices.

I love this place so much. Wonderful people making drinks, a wonderful spot to meet with friends and do homework or just relax, and the best coffee I've had in Denton. I only wish the annoying thrift store scalpers Old Bear weren't taking up so much valuable space, plastering the wall in ugly posters, giving more work to the baristas after laying off their dedicated staff, and completely conflicting with Aura's perfect vibe overall.

the drinks are great. the cashiers can lighten up, but i also don't blame them. the restaurant does get packed often for those who want to study.

The coffee is pretty decent, but I never crave it enough to swing by more than a couple of times a month. I like the fact they have local flyers for events, and them selling Denton local merchandise.However, the staff is not the friendliest. I feel they are prone to give you the cold shoulder for no reason.My coffee was sitting on the counter and they never called it out. A few minutes later, I walked up and asked if it was mine and they said yes. Overall, the place is pretty good, but I can't see myself coming back after the rudeness.

I am never the type to leave bad reviews as I have been working in the service industry for quite some time and currently work as a barista. I understand we have bad days, but there is never a reason to humiliate a guest who is paying YOUR company simply because they didn't hear the drink called out the first time....this establishment has a great ambiance and it is super convenient for students, but after being basically scolded for not hearing my coffee order over the hustle and bustle of the coffee shop, then stared at by every guest within the facility with subtle laugher, I don't plan on returning. I know y'all probably don't need my business, but it's one thing to have good coffee with mediocre service, it's another to embarrass someone is paying for coffee, tipping the baristas, and supporting a small business.

It was a very cute place and its conveniently located if you're a UNT student. However their music choices are quite odd and loud making it hard to focus if you're trying to study.

I came in and got a chai tbh it was the worst chai I've ever had in my life but I will say the customer service is amazing as well as the atmosphere I loved the vibes!
