Newest Review: ... days they have a complimentary range of tea and coffee instruments. So far, so usual. However with Aroma the twist is that they are really craft designs in lovely bright colours and inspired dots. These are a cut above the usual Starbucks tat and look brilliant. I've never used one so I'm not sure how practical they are but they keep the bright and fun air of the place going and look really nice.
