My boyfriend and I went here for brunch on a Sunday to start a beautiful day in the finger lakes. I have an intolerance to... gluten, so I found Aroma based on reviews that suggested they had GF options, even though their chalkboard menu didn't mentionit. When I asked the woman who worked there what options they had, she gave short responses as if we inconvenienced her bysupporting the business as the only customers there at the time. The next trouble was the menu itself - there was no info on theactual food, only the title of the meal. This prompted me to ask "what is in the avocado sandwich?" Because it can't just beavocado. Again, she gave her answer as if I was rude for asking despite the information simply not being available for me tofigure out myself. Nonetheless, we got our drinks (a warm dirty Chai latte and a room-temp cold brew that came with no ice) andwaited patiently for about 20 minutes for the food. When the food came out, the gluten free bread was largely inedible becauseit was stale, and my boyfriend's meal was not what he expected because of the lack of info on the menu (I'm not sure the name,but he ended up with a plate full of potatoes with one fried egg on top), although it was seasoned nicely. When we wanted toleave with a to-go box, the woman was nowhere to be found so we improvised with a coffee cup and lid. Before we left, I searchedfor the bathroom and found the woman sitting in a dark room with ear buds in. Thank goodness, because she was able to give methe unfriendly point to where the unmarked bathroom is. It turns out the bathroom is also a storage room and had no papertowels. Overall, I was left with the impression that customers are an inconvenience. I certainly will make a point to not returnbased on the customer service and I honestly wonder how places with such poor service can stay in business... Read more

I basically grew up in Hammondsport. Was not good at all. Very huge disappointment, considering I avoided the place for 15... years. I found a hair in my drink as well. Took way too long to get 2 drinks. Read more

A delightful, unique, welcoming space. We entered the old house turned cafe looking for a cup of coffee, not knowing what we'd... find. Art adorned every wall and spilled into piles underneath, all from local artists. The owner, who somehow ran thecafe/gallery all by herself, was kind and welcoming. We picked out a few small pieces and chatted with the other patrons whileshe busied herself with our breakfast, then enjoyed a wonderful meal. The mint lemonade was particularly delightful! Lookforward to coming again next time we're in town. Read more

A lovely small cafe with a big selection of drinks and food. I ordered a drink with mint and I watched her go around back and... pick fresh mint leaves for it, which was special and speaks to the type of business it is. Read more

We really wanted to like this place, but we should have listened to the reviews. It?s a really cool concept, but executed so... poorly. Our food and drinks took 40+ minutes despite not having any customers ahead of us and its not being a busy time at all.People who came in after us got their food and drinks before us. We ordered a fruit smoothie, cappuccino, and the breakfast hashwith turkey bacon. After we had already paid we were told they were out of turkey bacon, so we opted for sausage. The fruitsmoothie was yummy, but the cappuccino was flavorless and disappointing. The hash was not hash, but rather a bunch of veggieswith a super overcooked egg and ?sausage? that looked and tasted suspiciously like a hotdog. For $40 we were super disappointedand left very unsatisfied. We don?t want to put down a local place, but do yourself a favor and listen to the reviews...andmaybe skip eating here. Read more

This is an awesome place! I just had the falafel wrap that was the best wrap I have ever had. The falafel was spiced terrific... with apple and tomatoes, hummus. Perfect! Read more

I?m definitely going to be talking about this meal for a while so might as well start here. In one word: Scrumptious! The guys... got the hash, my friend and I shared the Egg Brickah and the Shakshuka. We savored every bite! This is not fast food, but in ourhumble opinion it was absolutely worth the wait. The Egg Brickah it?s hands down my favorite thing I have tried all week atHammondsport, packed with lovely Mediterranean flavors and served with honey. Unlike what other reviews claimed, the owner waswarm and welcoming. Read more
