Aroma Joe's

All the warmth and charm of a Starbucks, but all the efficiency, too, which is to say it doesn't feel like Cheers but it does the job and does it well. I stopped in for coffee and breakfast on my way to get my son out of his dorm in the midst of the 2020 pandemic. Breakfast was fast and the coffee was pretty good. The place is spacious inside and looks like a good spot for a nice long wifi work stint, although there was a TV running.

Every time I try to go here I give it 20 minutes to try to get a coffee and I end up driving away without one almost every time because it makes me run late for my day. If you can’t get a customer through a drive thru within 20 minutes for coffee, you probably shouldn’t have a drive thru. I want to try this place more, but it’s hard to justify when I could go to the Dunkin next door 3 times in the amount of time it takes to go here.

Edit: the owner replied saying that if I were the 10th car, it would take 20 minutes. I fully agree that 2 min per car is reasonable. I do want to note that the day I wrote this review, I was almost late for work after waiting 25 minutes. I was the 5th car when I pulled up. This is an average of 5 minutes per car.

I love AJ's Rush! I have tried alot of their flavors. My favorite flavor that I created myself is:

Strawberry, Watermelon, Blood Orange
My other top favorites are:
-Strawberry, Orange, Amaretto
-Strawberry, Orange, Guava
-Blue Hawaiian
-Pink Star
-Mai Tai
-Skittles
-Leann's Rush
-Fruit Punch

^Some of these flavors above are on a secret menu that you can ask them about.

It's very nice looking on the inside to grab something to drink/eat, and just hang out in their lounge chairs. AJ's Rush Energizing Drinks are really addictive, and so flavorful. AJ's rush(without any flavors added) to me taste similar to a regular Redbull drink, but much better tasting.

They Need one in the Bangor Brewer area lol We Drive up from Brewer For Their Ham Swiss Croissants and Wicked Mudslide Fro Jo and The Hot Latte one

ridiculous wait every time i go through the drive thru, it sucks because i love the drinks and would come here every day if i didn’t have to wait for an hour just to order. no hate to the workers because it’s almost certainly not their fault but management seriously needs to figure it out

Very good menu suggestions and service. Excellent energy drink. Hash browns could have been more toasted and the breakfast sandwich less burnt.

Took 15-20 minutes to get to order window with 5 cars ahead of me ...4 employee cars parked out back. Then another 5 minutes to get my iced coffee. Not sure if it was shift change but I've had less of a wait at dunking donuts with line wrapped around the building. Best iced coffee around, wouldn't wait that long again though.

I absolutely love it! Great staff and environment to chill with friends or read alone with my favorite "Cup O' Joe" and my Service Dog. My wheelchair fits everywhere and so do l. Oh, did l mention great coffee?

The service/wait time has gone down hill in the past year. Praying the issue is rectified soon 🙏 but I'll still keep coming for their raspberry mocha coffee anyway ❤️ it's just that good.

My daughter got me hooked on this place. Been going there a year now and they never got an order wrong yet!! The muffins are huge and well worth it!
