    The food and service at Black Elk is always excellent, the noise level can be a bit loud especially with the horrible chairs they have in the cafe. People have forgotten how to lift their chairs and given they are the old school desk chairs and the floor is concrete the noise of scrapping chairs continuously grinds on your nerves and makes the visit from that perspective not very pleasant. the chairs need to go ...if that happens this place is excellent !

    Our experience was wonderful. The food was delivered to our table promptly and with lots of smiles. Very accommodating and attentive. As always, the food was delicious and the coffee tasted amazing. From start to finish, the service was consistently outstanding. Well worth it and lots of value for money. Parking was easy to find and the ambience complimented the food really well. The staff as always were very polite, attentive and very friendly. Highly recommend the food, the coffee and the wonderful service. Thank you.

    My partner and I have been going to the Black Elk for a while. While on the pricier side, the food has always been excellent and the portions quite generous. The staff have always been very friendly and the service excellent.

    We had breakfast at Black Elk Espresso and it was undeniably one of the best dining experiences my family and i have ever had. Not only was the service great from the moment we stepped foot in the cafe but it continued to stay at a high standard throughout our time there. The staff were really friendly, professionalism was top tier but they also catered to our requests with a smile. We shared plenty laughs with the servers and it elevated our first time at B.E.E immensely. The food was delicious and a feast for the eyes. You almost didnt want to eat it because you were about to ruin the beautifully crafted dishes that were placed in front of you. The creativity and flavours along with all the many great textures included in any one dish was an experience we will never forget. Amazing! honestly from start to finish, everything and everyone that contributed to our breakfast really made it a great first time and birthday breakfast for us. We cant wait to come back again! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
