ELK Espresso

They have no idea what gluten is they gave me steak and eggs with fried onions containing gluten and then took it back to the kitchen after I took a bite and was suspicious they then brought me back another plate “without gluten” and it still had the onions on it. Highly don’t recommend eating here it’s not safe.

Our visit to ELK Espresso in Broadbeach was nothing short of amazing! This stylish, beachside café offers a fresh, modern atmosphere with light, airy interiors and a buzzing yet relaxed vibe. What did we order? We enjoyed their creamy, flavour-packed Porridge (topped with fresh fruit and a beautiful nut crumble), the vibrant Avocado Toast (loaded with smashed avo, herbs and the perfect seasoning), and the standout Steak & Eggs - perfectly cooked, tender steak served with rich yolky eggs and a fresh side salad. Every dish was not only delicious but also beautifully plated. How was the service? Staff were friendly, attentive and fast, despite a busy weekend crowd, our meals arrived promptly and with a smile. What’s the atmosphere like? Bright, beachy and perfect for brunch dates, catch-ups or even solo coffee time. Any dietary or vegan options? Yes, the menu offers multiple vegetarian and vegan options, plus gluten-free choices. Location & convenience? Situated right across from the beach in Broadbeach, parking is close by and it’s a short stroll from the tram stop. Highly recommend ELK Espresso for anyone visiting the Gold Coast looking for fresh, beautiful food in a gorgeous, coastal setting. [Follow my adventures on instagram @crushinglimits]

I recently visited Elk Espresso and was thoroughly impressed! The service was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and efficient. I never had to wait long at all, which made my visit incredibly stress-free. As someone with celiac disease, I really appreciated the celiac-friendly options on the menu; it’s refreshing to see a café that goes the extra mile for all its guests. I highly recommend Elk Espresso for anyone seeking great coffee, delicious food, and a welcoming atmosphere. Five stars!
