Very average breakfast. All of the food is quite heavy and oily/butter. Great ambience but the menu doesn’t have great variety or any healthier/lighter options.
I went here just for a coffee. The space is cute, a mix of tables and lounges, book shelves, antiques, and it was very busy. They sell breakfasts, lunch and some interesting options including curries. They also had lots of sweets. I ordered a latte and the lady serving happily responded to my request of an elephant in my latte art. Loved it. A nice drop too. I’ll go back sometime for food. aroundtheclockfoodie.com
The Elephant Boy caf is filled with character. I first visited this place two years ago and I remembered how delicious the wagyu beef burger was.I was fortunate enough to visit Bowral again last week andcould not resistto go back to enjoy more beautiful food.The coffee was to my liking with a bit of oomph. I had the lamb burger and my partner had the wagyu. They were both stunning.
Mmm… Not as good as it looks. The setting is cute and all and there’s admittedly a nice vibe, but I did find quite a fault in the food. We ordered some banana bread which came out stale and dry, and some feta eggs and spinach on toast with a side of smoked salmon. There was hardly any feta at all, and the salmon came out after five minutes. I had to remind them that I had even ordered it. I then asked for some bacon. They asked if I wanted it crispy, to which I said yes. It came out, and it was anything BUT crispy. Good, but really not what I asked for…
Great atmosphere but incredibly overpriced and underwhelming food. I ordered a pie ($23!) and it was served half frozen on the inside The waitress apologised profusely, and said they had issues with the oven. She returned 15 minutes later with the wrong pie (it was half eaten and belonged to the table next to us). Again she apologised, and returned with the correct meal. Unfortunately at this point the pie was hot, but the onion gravy was stone cold and the side vegetables were soggy. The pie itself was the worst pie I have EVER eaten, and was a strange mixture of unflavoured mince meat and unflavoured gristly bits of steak. Needless to say I did not touch the pie and ate soggy vegetables for lunch instead. We were offered a complimentary coffee at the end of our meals, however were still charged the full price for the uneaten pie. The waitress was lovely, and the music and decor created a wonderful atmosphere, however I would rather eat a $3 pie from a petrol station than Elephant Boy’s $23 grisly inedible mess.
Fabulous place unless you’re unlucky enough to be served by the nasty witch who is the manager/owner (orange hair, glasses, broomstick. I assume she is the owner, she’s rather imperious). I’ve been about 10 times and 3 of these times its been unpleasant – when the witch served us. She needs to retire or find her joy elsewhere, cos it ain’t here.
Yum! I love this place. Every time I travel south I always stop here for lunch or breakfast. The food is wonderful and the staff are friendly too. The curries are always good and the pies are to die for, get in early lunch though because they sell out quickly! Coffee and iced chocolates are beautiful. Would go as far as to say this is my favourite cafe in Australia
