What Our Customers Say

“ Its a cute coffee place on 17th Ave! Has very cute decor and pretty good seating spaces. The staff are very sweet and welcoming. Drinks were good, I tried the Baileys coffee for the first time and it was not as good as I was expecting it to be. The cookies were good too, maybe a tad bit too sweet for us but the first bite was delicious. Would recommend for a quick coffee/bakery stop. ”

Bishruti Satyal

“ The drinks are really good and their pastries are very good and a lot are vegan. Great little place if you're ever in the neighborhood. It does get very busy, though, and it can be hard to find a seat. Due to this it is also quite noisy. Staff is great though. ”

“ Element Cafe offers a wonderfully chill atmosphere that makes it an ideal spot for getting work done or simply relaxing.

However, the presentation was on point, and the drink looked great. If you're a coffee enthusiast, it’s worth a try, but even if you're not, the experience is still enjoyable. The staff is friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall positive vibe of the place. Additionally, Element Cafe supports local artists and hosts community events, which is a fantastic touch. The presence of local art and stickers adds a unique, creative flair to the space, making it feel connected to the community.

“ Love the staff! The lady was soo nice and friendly! The coffee was tasty as well and the atmosphere is very nice and spacious. Lots of plugs and sitting area. A variety of savory goods and drinks. I tried their Turkish coffee and it’s small but highly caffeinated which is just what I needed to start the day. ”
