However— they have a couple of paper menus that the print is so faded on them you have to strain to actually read them. On top of that, there is not a single price anywhere in house. No drink prices, no food prices. I was planning on ordering the maple latte, but to my surprise they were out of maple syrup at 9:05 in the morning! Bummer, because a lot of their drink menu is pumpkin forward and doesn’t offer many other options for the speciality lattes.
We ordered the eggs Benedict ( $15) a matcha ube latte ($9) a waffle ($9) and hashbrown ($8) and lastly avocado toast ($9) with a black coffee ($5). The food tasted great, very eye appealing but the portions are quite small. We thought the eggs Benedict could have used some toast or potatoes (that’s a big part of the theme) to mop up the tasty hollandaise sauce, especially for $15. The waffle did not taste like a waffle at all, it was good! But almost like a very dense biscuit.
I probably won’t return, because I don’t live too close but I could see this being a very fun place to be a regular.
The cafe has such a cozy and welcoming atmosphere, perfect for relaxing and hanging out. Even though it was pretty busy on Saturday, the wait for our food and drinks was very reasonable. Everything came out quickly, and the staff were so friendly and professional the whole time.
We left talking about how much fun it was and how we can’t wait to come back. Elevensies is a real gem, and whether you’re a Tolkien fan or just someone looking for a unique and comfortable cafe, it’s definitely worth a visit.
So I have positives and constructive criticism, but overall we had a great experience!
I went with my girlfriend on a Friday afternoon. She ordered a Cinnamon Roll and First Breakfast Sando, I ordered Lembas Bread and Smoked Salmon Bennies, we both got the Bear/Man Iced Honeycomb Latte.
● The coffee, by far, AMAZING! Props to the barista.
● The Cinnamon Roll and Lembas Bread, although both very cold, were tasty! We both believe it would’ve been so much better heated up.
● The First Breakfast Sando was great, had variety and creativity. Her favorite was the English Muffin as it was different than your usual!
● The Smoked Salmon Bennies I had a hard time with. As tasty each ingredient was, the consistency of the fish and egg tested my limits. But delicious!
The atmosphere was cozy and warm. I LOVED the fact that they had fantasy/celtic music playing, the plates were wooden or clay and utensils looked blacksmithed, and that the room was COVERED in LOTR memorabilia! My two favorites were the Hobbit door mural and Bilbo Baggins’ contract in the glass table! I think anyone would be entertained on the room alone during their entire stay. They have a really cool large coffee menu, but I would add their food menu next to it OR make it more visible as it’s only on a piece of paper next to the cashier. station. We came at a great time! It wasn’t super busy but it wasn’t empty, so it was enjoyable! The staff that took our order were super friendly, ones that manned the coffee were quick, ones that made the food made it look fancy and tasty, the one who served our food always smiled and personable! One thing we noted was the call-out when the coffee was ready was very quiet, some people had no idea. So maybe serve to the table before the meal since the meal is served to you, just an idea!
Overall, we loved our trip to Elevenses! It was beautiful, cozy, and comfortable! We’ll definitely be going again in the future, and recommend this place to anyone who has a passion for Middle Earth and coffee! ☕️
