Warming the heart of Cambridge with our Sicilian sourdough pizza, artisan bakery, gelato and coffee. At last you can order a WHOLE Aromi sourdough pizza - as delicious as the slices we sell in our cafes (with 3 days fermentation included!), but big enough for dinner! And to go with it - a tasty choice of Sicilian antipasti, cakes, and of course our famous artisan gelato.
Thank you for supporting us - this is an exciting new venture for us so we appreciate your patience! Well, it is made of three simple ingredients: flour, water and mother of yeast. During a slow 48-hour fermentation, starch and gluten are naturally broken down, so the final result is a much lighter, easier to digest dough where you'll only have to take one bite to enjoy its goodness without the guilt!

Limited options available, and served lukewarm. No proper glasses or cutlery, just terrible single use plastics and flimsy bamboo. After we sat down, it took them 7 minutes and two reminders to come clean our table from the previous customers; and even then there was still sauce spills left after a cursory wipe. The food itself is good, but man the service lets it down, big time.

Beautiful, fresh and authentic food, I would highly recommend. Staff were polite and professional, since it was my visit I wanted to know about how the food was prepared and the server explained to me that everything is freshly prepared the morning of all with fresh ingredients - no prepackaged and microwaved food here! Though definitely not the cheapest, I would happily visit again as the quality is really worth paying for - would note that the location does get busy but good things are worth waiting for and I would happily come back for pizza and coffee again.

This is a nice cafe that is available within the city. They had a lovely selection of pastries and other snacks. We got some coffee and pastries from here and they were good. Especially the pistachio cake, it was delicious but the pistachio croissant was too sweet for my taste personally. If you are looking for a good pistachio croissant, I'd recommend "Modigliani". They are just outside the centre, but have a lovely selection of pastries available to choose from.

We visited Cambridge during the summer, and found this wonderful Sicilian café in the heart of the city. We stopped at Aromi for a light lunch a couple of times. The focaccia and pizza slices are wonderful - we really loved the food here. The espresso is very good too. There were quite long queues at lunchtime, as it’s very popular!

An absolutely beautiful little place with food that is out of this world delicious. It has an enticing spread laid out for you to devour with your eyes before you get to enjoy it on a plate. An authentic Sicilian eatery (but what would I know!). I had a delicious Caponata pizza which is a sicilian style tray baked pizza rather than a neopolitan style thin stretched round pizza. It was amazing. I would highly recommend this gem and am looking forward to visiting again. 5 Stars!

Our go to place to get coffee!!! The place serve one of the best coffees I've tasted. Their food is delicious especially the eggplant sandwich looking thing, absolutely hooked on it. Also, tried their desserts which all tasted great. Overall, the place has plentiful seating, relaxing ambience, good customer service, and a great variety to choose from.

We were walking around in Cambridge looking for something light and affordable to eat and found this place!! I got the rocola pizza and it was good! There were some seats upstairs and more in the basement! I will definitely revisit this place if I'm looking for something quick, light and affordable!

A great café in the heart of Cambridge. Stopped by here after I was craving some gelato. Some of the available flavors included: Stracciatell (vanilla with chocolate bits), fragola (strawberry), nocciola (hazelnut), limone di Sicilia (Sicilian lemon), pistachio di Sicilia (Sicilian pistachio), nero fondente (dark chocolate), and ricotta & pistachio chocolate (Sicilian sheep ricotta gelato with pistachio chocolate). Inside, there's about 4-5 tall tables, each seating 4, and a couple of small tables, each seating 2. I definitely want to go back and try some of their authentic Sicilian pizza

I'm not a sandwich gal, never have been, never will. However, anytime I'm in the city center of Cambridge and have a hankering for lunch, the Sicilian paninis at Aromi are amazing. They are crafted with fresh bread, delicious gooey cheese, just enough meat, and plenty of fresh vegetables. Don't be put off if it's crowded - the service is efficient, friendly and fast, and it's totally worth it! I only wish that they were open for dinner too.

There was a line out the door when it wasn't even lunchtime, but the wait is certainly justified. I had the vegitariana, which is tomatos, onions, and cheese with a balsamic drizzle, with an aranchini on the side. The crust of the pizza is amazingly crisp and tender. The aranchini was also cooked and seasoned just right without being too greasy or saucy.

A quick review, it's been a busy week.
(+) Reasonably priced for a large slice of pizza for one (close to £5). Slightly nutty and milky cheese, a nice texture on the bread (light, fluffy, not doughy and baked in a brick oven where you can see on display). Simple flavors that makes into a good pizza all around.
(+) Tiramisu was just right. Although I sensed that the dessert menu was priced a bit heavier than their savory menu (based on portion size).
(+) There are several locations. I found the corner location (in front of Zizzi's restaurant) served the best pizzas.

Delicious pizza and arancini! You can eat there or do take away. Normally you have to queue a bit but nothing crazy.
A little bit pricey but the quality of the food is excellent so worth spending a little bit more :)
Try arancini with ragù but don't forget the one with spinach...They will be a surprise for your mouth!

My absolute favorite place to eat in all of Cambridge. There are two locations, the one on the corner has more selection, the one near the alley has gelato. Take your food to go and eat it outside.
Gelato: so delicious. So creamy and yet so light. Ask for half one flavor and half of the other. The dark chocolate is rich and creamy, perfectly complementing the strawberry. Lemon and pistachio are also great flavors.
Pizza: so delicious. Just get it.
Pastries: I tried their financiers and tiramisu. Beautiful appearance and delicious food.
TLDR: I would travel from Los Angeles to Cambridge

Solid Sicilian pizza located in a nice stretch on Bene't Street. Interestingly I liked the sample slice better than the full slice I ordered which was the same pizza. Their crust is a bit thinner than other Sicilian pizza I've had. I liked their decor and the staff was nice. When in the area and craving pizza, I would stop in again.

Welcome to Sicily!
Aromi is a café and deli, come here to stock up on essential ingredients or take a seat and relish a spinach and mozzarella arancini or a mouth-watering cannoli with a lovely cup of coffee. Try their italian-style ice-coffee (not the english latte-style)!
Wooden tables, recyclable cutlery, welcoming staff (clearly directly imported from Italy/Sicily), a great place to stop by for a quick bite.
