Great menu - which is a dilemma in itself!!Attentive happy, helpful staff. Try the signature breakfast dish - pulled pork, avo, poached eggs on crispy potato rostis �� You will not be disappointed or leave hungry!!!
Had Mothers day brunch yesterday. The food was excellent and delicious and service was quick and great considering it was busy. Definitely recommend any time. Happy customers!
Great atmosphere with lots of seating indoors and out.
Staff pleasant and polite.
Coffees came out quick followed by meals shortly after. Everyone enjoyed there meals. I had scrambled eggs on toast with a side of bacon. It was delicious and the side of bacon was generous.
The breakfast burger and chicken burger were also enjoyed by others at the table.
You’ll miss this little restaurant if you’re not looking for it. Came here with a friend initially for coffee but the menu looked tasty so we opted for lunch too. We both actually ordered the smashed avocado with poached eggs, halloumi (instead of bacon) and added mushrooms to the side - it was nothing that we expected! For such a basic meal it really was delicious. Highly recommend adding halloumi to the meal. We’ll be back soon!
Fabulous cafe in Highett. It’s got prime position in the corner. Food was delicious I ordered the Mexican bowl and a coffee. Coffee was great, it hit the spot and the food was tasty, just what I needed on a warm day. Staff were lovely, friendly and food service was fast. Will definitely be back.
Went to the little elephant this morning and had the breakfast special which was a medley of tomatoes on grain toast with poached eggs, ricotta, prosciutto and micro herbs. Lovely combination of flavours, however the poached eggs were overcooked and more like hard boiled.. I also had a soy latte which tasted nice but the soy milk was an odd consistency (very thick and almost lumpy).
Overall nice location in the quiet streets of highett with polite staff and good ambience, however wouldn’t come back in a hurry unless I was in the area.
My mum and I were trying to find cute cafes around the area. I live in Cheltenham. Anyway I found this really cute place the little elephant. My mum was intrigued by the name and thought it was really cute so we went there. The presentation of the food was unique and cute and the potato rosti’s were amazing. Will come back here for sure. I saved the photo I had taken on a boomerang on Instagram so I cannot upload it.

I stumbled across this place about 2 weeks ago and have now been there 3 times for brunch. The food is delicious, creative and very reasonably priced. I have had the breakfast menu each time which is hard to choose from. All looks good. I’ve decided to make my way through it & try everything eventually.
I’ve had the homemade crumpets with smoked salmon, poached eggs, spinach hollandaise & macadamia dukkha. Yum! Honey pulled pork, avocado and two poached eggs served on crispy potato rosti and finished with hollandaise. Yum! White miso eggplant with trio of mushrooms & fried enochi. Yum! Next time I will take photos.
Chai is fresh & really good. Coffee great too! It is in a nice quiet stretch of road. The staff are young, very friendly and welcoming. The venue is modern and fresh, yet still feels warm and friendly. My one only complaint is what I’d call dance type music playing each time. Not my thing. I. prefer something a bit more laid back at brunch time. But that’s just me. That is the only reason I’ve taken one star. Otherwise absolutely perfect!
The little elephant definitely makes you feel like a big elephant whilst eating here. it fills you up so fast and the food is so tasty and nutritious. Top place for sure!
Tucked away, the little elephant is a nice cafe with great coffee, service and a different menu that will satisfy. The turmeric latte is great!!
A great spot for breakfast/brunch and lunch. I have been here a number of times for all of the above and always leave with a smile on my face. Quality food and great service.
Decided to try here even though there are a few not so good reviews. We were very happy we came. Friendly competent staff. Good food and coffee. Nice, bright decor. The weirdly named Dragons Balls are really very tasty. Well done.
I didn't have time to enjoy the food, but the coffee was very nice and the taste the little elephant which isn't a fair price for its size.
Didn't like the music though.
But the location is excellent.
An almost hidden gem as I found it while planning my route for a walk with my wife.
Would like to return to one day to taste the food.
Only had the opportunity to have a coffee, chocolate almond croissant and a little elephant, all were tasted good. But feel the elephant was overpriced. Didn't like the choice of music. Would like to come back to try the food though.
This is out local cafe! It's been such a lifesaver during the lockdown as they kept being open for take-away only. They revamped their menu a few months ago and food is amazing with lots of variety and vegan friendly meals and their coffees are great too. Will, the manager, always takes the time to chat to us and tickle our son. All their staff is very attentive, polite and friendly. This cafe is very popular on the weekend so there could be quite long queues for coffees in the morning.
Great cafe if your looking for more unique flavoured dishes compared to other cafes. On a seperate occasion wanting something simple, I got the eggs my way (poached) with avocado on sourdough, and was delicious. Nice indoor and outdoor seating with friendly staff.
Absolutely deciduous meal, coffee and service. Rachel and Sienna were appropriately attentive, kind and hilarious. The Sweet As Bro and lattes were spot on. I've been here a few times and it's always exceeded my expectations.
Loved the coffee experience. Very nice staff.
Great local cafe with a really yummy menu and lovely attentive staff. Lots of cute neighbourhood dogs too :) I had “I Yam What I Yam” and it was so tasty! Need to come back and try more of the menu.
Such a great vibe at this cafe! Lots of indoor and outdoor seating, great location with plenty of parking, friendly staff, and the food and coffee was 10/10. Will be back for sure.
