Previously Big Mike’s, Aura Coffee is conveniently located at the corner of Fry and Hickory. Its close location to campus makes it an excellent place to stop between classes or meet up with friends.

Cultivar Coffee Bar & Roaster
Cultivar’s Denton location is one of three in the North Texas area. They roast their own single-source beans, providing you with a truly unique experience. Located off the square on Hickory Street, Cultivar is a great, and close, place for students to study. They share their space with Hypnotic Donuts, giving you tasty eats to pair with your coffee. They also have their beans available for sale and offer a vast amount of information for both newbies and experts through their website.
