When the lunch plates clear, Bella Aurora Cafe leans into the afternoon — pots of premium loose-leaf tea, a frothy house London Fog or Persian Fog, and a pastry case that runs from Dubai chocolate crepes to burnt Basque cheesecake.
Afternoon tea, the Aurora way
You won't find a three-tier stand and white gloves here — our take on afternoon tea is simpler. Order a pot of premium tea, a London Fog or a Persian Fog, add a slice of something from the case, and take a table for as long as you need. It's the low-key answer when you search for afternoon tea near me on Yonge Street in Aurora.
Dubai chocolate, folded into a crepe
The Dubai chocolate trend — milk chocolate, pistachio cream and crisp kataifi — lands here as a warm crepe. If you've been hunting for Dubai chocolate (or Dubai choc) in Aurora, this is where to find it, alongside our Nutella and Lotus crepes.
Burnt Basque cheesecake and the rest of the case
Our burnt Basque cheesecake is baked hot and fast for a caramelised top and a soft, custardy centre — the crustless, slightly burnt cheesecake that started in San Sebastián. Around it: baklava by the piece or the box, tiramisu, cannoli, Napoleon pastry, fruit tarts, scones, and macarons in the display.
Something warm to go with it
Every dessert pairs with the bar — London Fog, Persian Fog, chai latte, premium teas, or a straight espresso if you want the contrast.
