Really nice cafe, they don't need the bells ans whistles of your typical hip cafes as the food is a stand out. I had the cajun chicken salad with golden latte and husband had the chicken sandwich with a cappuccino. Was a really high standard, portion sizes were great and only cost $40. Will visit again, next time for breakfast! Thanks for a great meal!!

I have been visiting Elefant lounge cafe at least once every month now. Friendly staff and good customer service.
Nice atmosphere for brunch but also for take aways too. My all time favourites are their chicken & mushroom linguine and grilled lamb w/ pita ‘n’ garden salad. Reasonable portions and freshly made orders.

Welcomed by warm service on a chilly winter afternoon. Their chicken & mushroom linguine was delightful - well seasoned chicken, generous amount of mushrooms, tasty sauce. Also liked their grilled lamb & pita bread with yogurt & garden salad. The curry eggs were unfortunately not so enjoyable, would have preferred a Thai curry to a Japanese curry.

Had the most delicious lemon and poppyseed muffin with a dash of honey on the side and a lovely hot powder chai latte. Have also eaten breakfast here and the French toast was great too!

Sensational !!! The friendly, professional and highly efficient welcoming service is just the starting point on how amazing and truly wonderful The Elefant Lounge Cafe truly is. This juices are fresh and leave the tastebuds screaming with joy. Honestly it's not an easy thing to achieve to do it in the right manner with the flavours that are infused together. The food is heavenly and honestly some of the best I've had in a long long time. I'll be returning here again and again as this is my new favourite hotspot in Melbourne. Well done to the chef, staff and also I have to mention the beautiful decor of the venue.

I use to walk past this place a lot in the morning. Looked so cute so I had to make time to come here on the weekend hehe I enjoyed an orange/apple juice and avocado toast with added mushrooms. The waitress was really cheery, polite and helpful. Put me in a good mood haha

The only down side is not being able to substitute anything on the menu, other than that everything was great :)

Cute Casual Brunch Cafe. Came here last week on a hangover after a big night out of drinking & their menu was perfect for the occasion & just made us extremely hungry! I had the open pan Omelette with Swiss Cheese & Ham, my partner had the Poached eggs with toast & sides & our friend had the Moroccan Eggs. I loved loved LOVED my Omelette! It was amazing how the combination of the sharp taste of Swiss Cheese complimented the Ham & Eggs really well. I had a try of the Moroccan eggs & it was good as well. Simple menu, easy to understand with good flavours going, less than 20 items to choose from which makes it even more easier to choose what to get, fast service, great casual feel to the cafe which makes you want to chillex all day there & friendly staff. It's going be another one of our regular cafe's now.

We were gobsmacked by the quality of the coffee and presentation of the meals at elefant lounge. The staff were super friendly and chilled out. Very pleasant change from the stressed out waitresses you often see at busy cafes. Five of us got eggs and one got the chicken salad on the lunch menu. Every single meal was cooked to perfection and fantastic value for money. Would recommend and will be back.
Thanks for a great brekky!

This place is great. Kid friendly, basket of toys and super friendly staff makes a meal out here easy with kids. Pricing is reasonable and have not had a thing here yet that has disappointed. My son loves the cheesey bread fingers. You can't go past their amazing steak sandwich though! Whenever I bring someone new here it's the first thing I recommend. Also refreshing to go to a cafe that doesn't serve hot chips with everything, they don't serve them at all!

Always great coffee and perfect poached eggs. Gluten free toast for those who want it. And always cool soul music on in the background. Great way to start the day before hopping on the Sandy train.

This place is great! They have a nice Balinese layout, some couches & even a basket of toys for the kids. Yes that's right, kid friendly! Which is so important in a cafe but seems to be forgotten by every other cafe pretty much everywhere. Ha ha the basket of toys have been the deciding factor to meet up at this cafe with friends about 30 times in the last year at least. It keeps the kids happy & mums happy.

The meals are delicious but exy and therefore a little off putting sometimes, the coffee is always fantastic & the babycinos are so awesome (you'll know what I mean if you order one). My kids love em.

Finally they are very laid back and friendly. Staff are great. Recommend this place for sure.

The best breakfast in Sandringham. The atmosphere doesn't compare to some of the great cafes in North Melbourne, but it's the coffee and food that is the standout here. The homemade baked beans are a healthy treat and the long latte can't be beat. The friendly staff and quiet location are a bonus. It's my local.

Steak sandwich was delicious but served on a ridiculous board that makes it hard to eat off. French toast was yummy but could have done without the chocolate sauce swirls around the plate... Too much sugar!
Good coffee and good service

The food is good but they desperately need to spellcheck their specials board. There is an error EVERYDAY - is this meant to be a play on the misspelling of Elephant? I hope so...

Best Café in Melbourne. I've been going to Elephant Lounge just over 2 years now, and boy oh boy, the coffee, the food, the staff have always made me want to come back for more.

I am a barista myself, and I can tell you, the coffee is always spot on there, even when the barista is time pressured, he will still make that perfect coffee.

Try it once, try it again, try it three times and by then you'll be in love with the place!

Best pasta dish ever!. I came in here for a late lunch and decided on the chicken and mushroom pasta. I asked for some bacon in the pasta but the waiter said the chef doesn't do that. They offered bacon on the side but I took their word for it and ordered it as is. And what a dish! Perfectly cooked pasta with the tenderest chicken breast and the mushrooms were not over cooked, which I like. A rich white wine sauce to top off close to, if not the best pasta I have ever eaten.

While I'm in compliment mode, the coffee gets better and better every time I go in. And some creative latte art to top off an awesome cup of coffee.

My one negative is that I drove out of my way for a coffee before work one day to find they were closed Mondays. But hey I guess everyone needs a day off!

I will be back to try a new item from the menu, if I can resist not ordering the pasta again!

Interestingly here in Australia, the idea of a Spanish omelette is not even remotely close to what a real Spanish omelette is. That said, my "Spanish" omelette and coffee at Elefant Lounge Cafe were delicious and the staff was friendly and attentive so I'll definitely drop by again if I'm in the area.

Cosy lounge with dark bamboo panelling. Friendly attentive staff and a delicious meal and coffee. Perfect location right next to the train station if you need a meal before or after a visit to the city or a walk along the local beach. You can sit and watch the local action from the bank of windows.

Great little spot for Breakfast or Brunch right next to the Sandringham Train Station and just minutes walk form the beach. The breakfast menu is awesome, very difficult to make a decision. They make a good cup of coffee and service is great.

Best coffee in Sandringham village. Small coffee is 2 dollars between 7 and 8 am Mon to Fri. Great for train catchers. Very cosy, quiet atmosphere, not as busy as other cafe's in the area. Very quick coffee making and service too

I stopped here for coffee and lunch with friends and got a good experienced from lovely staff members and owner. I ordered beef burger and mocha and it was so lovely. I asked for extra hot and I got the right temperature. Staffs are so attentive and friendly. I really recommend this place to stop by.
