Sweet Elle Café

We've been here about 6 or 7 times over the years and usually save it as a special treat since it is on the pricier side. The space has changed quite a bit over the last 2 years, and I'm genuinely happy to see the business grow and evolve. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. We ordered 2 coffees with their house made oat milk and a couple of breakfast items, which came to about $52 before tip. My coffee arrived with a hair in it. While that's never ideal, I understand mistakes happen. We had already waited around 10 minutes for the first coffee and a few more minutes for the second, so I asked for a replacement. By the time the replacement was ready, we had finished our breakfast and my partner had already finished their coffee. Since we needed to leave, I took the replacement to go. Unfortunately, the replacement tasted very watered down and off. I even had my partner try it, and they agreed that something didn't seem right. I have always enjoyed supporting small businesses and have had good experiences here in the past, which makes this review disappointing to write. Between the quality issues and the price point, this visit did not feel worth the cost, and I don't t

The place itself looks super cute. But the experience i had wasn’t so great. I ordered a Lox Bagel, and they asked me if I would like that open face (for 7$ extra). I asked what open face meant, and he explained to me that it is the bagel cut in half, opened, and then basically two sandwiches. When I got my order, I only received half a bagel. I went back to ask if they forgot the rest of my order, and then another person told me that this is the whole order. So I just paid nearly 25$ for half a bagel, and also got lied to (because I was told it would be two pieces). I am not sure what you would receive without “open face”, but it doesn’t make sense to me that half a bagel is more expensive than a normal bagel. My boyfriend ordered the breakfast bowl, which was also a bit disappointing. We paid over 50$ for two drinks and two food items, not including a tip. Would not recommend this place.

Great local spot for breakfast, brunch or whenever! Depending on the day parking could be easy because it is tucked in a neighborhood. The menu iteams are all fresh and made on site. I had the cranberry orange scone and tea and it was delightful.

If you’re looking for breakfast on a budget, this is not the place for you. 2 drinks and 2 food items were $45 before tip. If you’re gluten free, they charge a $5 up-charge for gf bagels. Sorry, but you can’t really call yourself allergen friendly if you’re charging that much for a gluten free substitution. I wouldn’t recommended or come back.

Being able to get a well crafted cup of coffee so close to the beach is a dream. They had a coava on drip and made a perfect short iced latte for my wife. Good seating outside and I didn’t have a problem parking. Also very friendly baristas. 10/10 would recommended!
