Great coffee and brunch menu. Consistent and never disappoints. The staff and owner are friendly, attentive and welcoming. Perfect stop if you were walking/heading towards Yarraville Garden.

Amazing little cafe in footscray. The food is absolutely delicious, the best coffee in Melbourne. The staff were super friendly and welcoming at a same time . Highly recommend checking it out if you are looking for a great cafe experience.

Baby Elephant is our everyday go to. The coffee is phenomenal; (I used to have a normal almond latte and now a decaf almond latte - can’t taste the difference)! All milks are available, lots of little treats, and it’s my husband’s favourite hot chocolate in the West. They even give marshmallows to the adults! Best of all though is the unwavering commitment to service. All the staff are gracious, kind, and remember all the little details. They know our names, orders, and the cherry on top is the time they take to make my daughter’s day by sneaking in an extra marshmallow for her, or stopping to have a “chat” and cuddle with her even though she can’t talk yet! Highly recommend. This is a wonderful establishment and team. You won’t be disappointed.

Cute coffee shop on the corner of Hyde and Parker Street. Plenty of street parking and coffee was nice and strong.

Nice little neighbourhood cafe with little sweet snacks and tea/coffee. The Chai was good and the Brownie Bite (very small brownie ideal when you don't want a larger average slice) was delicious. Lots of outdoor seating but limited indoor seating.

I tried the chicken foccacia and iced chai. Gluten free bread is available. The location is on a busy road.
