Bella Aurora Cafe

I came across this gem in Aurora while walking around with my family, and I’m so glad we did! The atmosphere is both cozy and upbeat — it’s clean, fresh, and welcoming. I really appreciated that they offer gluten-free and dairy-free options, which can be hard to find. The service was impressively fast, and the owner was kind and a pleasure to chat with. I’ll definitely be back, and I highly recommend this spot to everyone!

I have eaten at Bella Aurora three times for brunch now. Initially my friends and I were looking for an independent, accessible (just one step at entrance) and cute breakfast spot, and this fit the bill! I have since returned with my family (they have a high chair which we used), and extended family (we went on Mother’s Day and they had small bouquets for each mother!). The staff are very friendly and kind! The food is great quality, good for the price, and not greasy like in chain breakfast restaurants. They have gluten free bread that can be substituted, and both vegetarian and vegan options (even vegan carrot cake loaf). Otherwise there is a lot of variety in desserts, ice cream, loose leaf teas, etc. They even let me purchase a whole banana for my toddler, which I’m pretty sure are for making smoothies. Lol. Very accommodating! My only wish is that they took orders at the table, as this would complete the dining experience (currently you go up to the counter to order, like at many cafes). This is my new favourite brunch spot and I will be sure to bring more friends and family there.

Should offer gluten free sandwich and wrap options and vegan, gluten free desserts…I did not end up eating here, as my choices were too limited.
