Aurora Coffee
468 Moreland Avenue Northeast, Atlanta, GA | (404) 523-6856 | auroracoffee.com
There is one spot in Little 5 Points (L5P) that has got everyone’s creative juices flowing. And it is not just the drinks that they serve or how they serve it, it is the place itself that brings all creative minds together in one spot.
Aurora Coffee may appear as a typical junkies spot — with all the vibrant colors and graphic wall displays – you may not even think of it is a coffee shop, until you smell the aroma of brewing coffee beans and see the people sipping it from their cups.
Don’t be overwhelmed with Aurora’s exterior design. Remember that you are in L5P – Atlanta’s most artistically diverse and funkiest neighborhood, so exteriors like Aurora’s should not appear foreign to you. It actually invites you in to sit and sip a cup of coffee or tea, take a breather and do your work in a much more inspiring but quieter environment.
Aurora’s interior isn’t as loud as what goes on the outside. They employ a minimalist interior design scheme with a few color splashes here and there on a gray based wall giving life to the place but not to the point of extravagance. The concrete floor is well polished giving an illusion of space and a chic design, so is the ceiling with its state-of-the-art lighting. The fixtures made of aluminum and wood renders the place warm and cozy.
Whether you like your coffee hot or cold, espresso or latte, or if you don’t like caffeine at all but would prefer a tea instead, Aurora’s got it and they have been serving the finest coffee and tea since 1992, so that’s perfection and coffee mastery guaranteed. They also have pastries and breakfast dishes to pack your day.
Come and visit Aurora Coffee in Little 5 Points and also in Virginia Highlands along North Highland Avenue.
