"Tucked in an unassuming strip mall in Plantation, the bulk of this shop’s morsels – spanning flat whites to cortados to fresh-made-frittatas – are served on a board with its logo, which has a heart at its center. It’s appropriate as its super-friendly staff and woodsy, brick-clad ambiance equate to a cozy love-fest." - Jesse Scott

I visited Ella Cafe in Plantation today, and it was an all-around fantastic experience. From the moment We walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. The decor is modern yet cozy, creating a perfect spot to unwind or catch up with friends. The service was spot-on, with the staff attentive and genuinely friendly. The manager was phenomenal. We didn’t love our drinks at no fault of theirs, but without us even saying anything, she noticed and offered to replace them – such thoughtful service! Our food recommendations were absolutely delicious which was the American sandwich. Came with a small corn salad. Overall, Ella Cafe deserves a perfect 10/10. I’ll definitely be returning and recommending it to anyone looking for a great cafe experience in Plantation!

cute little coffee shop was kind of crowded around 1:40pm on a Thursday so we had to sit outside. ordered the American Sandwich and the French Sandwich both were very good and came with a side. the french one came with grapes, apples kind of tasted like a chicken salad w/out the chicken. the american one came with corn, bell papers and cauliflower. we then ordered a coffee cake which was also very good.

I've been here at LEAST 10 times and the coffee was perfect every time. Ready to drink, great flavor. Food is pricey but doesn't disappoint. Pastries are really good, my personal favorite is the chocolate "croissant" twist. It gets busy but we almost always are able to find a seat by the time our order is ready. Don't hesitate to stop by.

This is a cute coffee shop to add to your morning java options! Their sandwiches and pastries are freshly prepared daily and taste amazing. A great place to study, catch up with friends, or even go on that first date. We really appreciate the details to the interior decor as well. Highly recommend to check them out!

Today was our first time at Ella Cafe. I had the Avocado Toast and a Cold Brew Coffee and my husband had a Cafe Con Leche. Everything tasted amazing. The Cafe is so cozy and the atmosphere is great. We really liked it there and we will definitely be back!

Ella Cafe is my new favorite coffee spot! The atmosphere is so delightful and welcoming, and the menu has so many great options to choose from! I had an amazing experience, thanks to Sophia, my cashier. She was so friendly, patient, and helpful in guiding me through the menu and gave me such an amazing coffee order! The iced latte was fantastic. Her bright smile and positive energy made my visit even better. Can’t wait to come back again soon!

The lady who took my order was NOT pleasant at all, BUT the food & atmosphere were amazing! I'll definitely be back! The lady was not giving good customer service. It was almost like we were bothering her. They don't have a printed menu and it was my first time so I was asking her for help and she was less than thrilled to assist. The sandwich and latte were yummy, though.

The cutest coffee shop with the BEST lattes in town. The hazelnut-Ella is my favorite. The staff is amazing, especially Paul. They are so welcoming. We love this place. 😍

I walked into a long but quickly moving line this morning for a delicious iced latte. They had me at home made vanilla syrup!!! Coffee had a great bite and no acidity. Solid coffee for any snob or novice coffee drinker.

Fast service, decently priced. Small shop that can hold about 20 people. The latte was okay, the sandwich was filling.

Enjoying my favorite cafe this morning. Ella's cafe is a sweet morning getaway after a chaotic morning of errands & doctor appointments. It's such a relaxing environment and the customer service is always great. I always go for a cappuccino, but today I added the seasonal flavor egg less nog and a BLT.

Never fails! Still my fave coffeehouse in the area. They have a few locations and all are fantastic. From the music they play, to the latte with house made syrups to the presentation and little heart cookie you get with every cup!

True traditional coffee house with a relaxed vibe. Several quaint tables line the covered front patio. Beautiful hand sized sandwiches on display along the counter bar in addition to big glass jars full of croissants, brownies and gourmet muffins. Huge chromed out Espresso machine against the wall near the coffee grinder machine. They also sell fresh coffee beans at $20.00 each. The ceiling is open to the roof with that hardcore industrial feeling which I love. A raised stage with a microphone positioned at the far back of the cafe which hosts live music on a schedule. Against the side wall was a large clear glass jar full of cold water, pieces of lemon and floating fresh mint - what a refreshing treat. This place was a gold mine super busy cafe. I ordered a Cortado with a 1/2 splash of cream for $5.00 which arrived to my small table in a few minutes. What a classy presentation, a Cortado with a cream tree design floating on top as it sits on top of a wooden board. The Cortado was priced at the high end but the atmosphere made it worth every penny. Love the chalk drawn wall menus with each unique to the next. Customers sitting on couches and at tables sipping their coffee and some diligently working on their lap tops. Ella Cafe has other locations in Davie and Coral Springs but this is the largest. The bathroom was super modern and clean.

Ella Cafe is a beautiful place, and everyone is super friendly. They have the best matcha tea I've ever had. I recommend ordering an iced matcha latte with oat milk and vanilla.

Mauricio B.

Yelp
Still one of the best coffee shops in the area. The quality of their coffee is consistently top notch, service is always fast and friendly, and food options are great... both savory and sweet. My favorite breakfast treat is their frittata and for a sweet treat I really like their blueberry muffins.

Yelp
I always have such a great morning at Ella! This cute cafe was named after owner's daughter (I believe). From the wooden serving plates to the warm decor, this place will have you feeling happy from the moment you step in! For coffees we ordered the blueberry pie and French toast cold brew! Both were so delicious we drank them so quick! To eat we had the avocado toast and one of the sandwiches with pesto! Both were decent but I prefer the coffee! They give you a little cinnamon cookie on the side which is the perfect little treat!

I really liked this cafe. It was really well decorated and unique. They don't really have a menu, it's more of a few items (sandwiches) on display that you can choose from. They also have coffee and other beverages. I ordered the Italian sandwich and a flavored coffee. My sandwich was great. It was about $14. I found my coffee to be sweet for my liking but I often expect that when I get coffees with syrups. I came there to study. It was pretty loud on the Friday afternoon that I came there. There were a lot of people and the music was pretty loud. At first it was difficult for me to find a table but once lunch time passed, there were plenty of tables. I also had a bit of difficulty with the wifi for the first 30 minutes but the staff was very helpful in getting me connected. Overall, a cute cafe. I liked the atmosphere and food but I would probably look for another cafe in the area to study.

Yelp
Elle Cafe is really one of a kind. They put effort in making the indoor interesting and there is definitely an interesting vibe. They also have outdoor seating, but the table are quite small. What I like the most about this place is the food. Their sandwich are made fresh, with quality ingredients and I appreciate their side of vegetables. The coffee isn't great, but not awful either. They do offer espresso drinks but the beans aren't good. Service is fast and friendly. I removed one star because of prices. It's really expensive. Other than this, it's a solid place.

I considered giving this a four stars only because of the cashier/barista. I'm not actually sure what her role was. She was just taking the orders, but she seemed very distracted. Very brief with answering questions and just kind of annoyed. Overall, my mom asked her what was and she literally replied by just repeating back the word to her it was offputting and the entire time she just kind of seen like she wanted to rush them interaction and just kept looking all around Otherwise, this was the best coffee I've ever had when ordering out I got a latte with banana cream. I believe it was called and it was the best latte ever. I don't think she was the one that made my drink so prop whoever made my drinks my mom loved her coffee as well. The food is delicious. We got a sandwich , my son loved the tangerine juice. The inside is adorable. I'm definitely coming back. I would come here every day. Honestly, I don't even care about the rudeness, but I did feel like I had to mention it because it's very important to me that staff always treats you with kindness. Otherwise, their coffee is the most delicious coffee I've ever ever had.

If you're looking for a small coffee shop with good vibes, Ella Cafe is the place to go. The coffee is excellent and so are the sandwiches. My sticky banana latte was so good. The cinnamon was a great touch. I love that all their coffees are served with a heart shaped shortbread cookie. I also loved that the cafe has live music. It really made the experience all that better. The staff was very kind and diligent. I would love to come back

Loved the ambiance the food and the relaxed decor. I asked about gluten-free pastry and they had two items to choose from.

09/18/2024 this place is our go to coffee place when we are in the area. Not too shabby on the drink selection.

Over priced and disgustingly long wait for two sandwiches that are nothing to brag about. Cute little place and with a singer/quitares. I personally did not care for. Unfortunately we are very disappointed and the sandwich image shown below was lukewarm after waiting more than 30 minutes. Awful experience. Unfortunately we don't believe we will be back! Coffee was nothing to brag about either. We have had better for a lot less. Management tried to satisfy us by a complementary pastry, unfortunately the disappointment was already done. Price: $$$$ Setting: Casual Little tables limited space Enjoy all! Cheers!

Ella cafe is the best. This cafe gives the best study vibes and its the perfect place to catch up with friends. They make all their syrups in house and their coffee is incredible. My favorite order is their iced latte, but my only complaint is I wish they would bring back the macadamia nut milk! That used to be my favorite part of Ella Cafe. I also love their vegan power bar, which is also gluten free. It's super filling and tastes delish. If you haven't made your way out to Ella Cafe, put it on your bucket list!

Yelp
Very much enjoyed my first time at Ella's Cafe. I like how small and quint it feels. A perfect place to have a coffee or tea with a sandwich or dessert and a good book. The interior is picturesque and great if you love taking photos of your food. The cashier was very nice and provided recommendations on what was best to order. Overall I will be visiting again and I hope anyone else who finds this gem of a coffee shop enjoys it as much as I did.

Found this place close to my job, so my co-worker and I decided to check them out based on all the good reviews. We came for lunch on a rainy day and they were pretty busy. Upon arrival I thought the cafe was a bit too small but they actually had enough sitting for all the customers and I did not see anyone standing waiting for a table. We walked towards the cashier to place our order and I was informed that they did not have an actual menu. The drinks were listed on the wall and the food had real samples displayed right next to the cashier. This is actually one of the reasons why I am giving 4 stars, since the lady at the cashier had to explain to me what each plate displayed was. There were no signs or anything. I also didn't like the fact that all the food being displayed was just sitting in the open with a few flying bugs around it. I ordered the american sandwich in a baguette with a side of corn. The sandwich had a pesto sauce, american cheese, bacon and tomato. Since they don't have sodas, I just had water. The food was actually pretty good and flavorful. The pesto gave the right taste to the sandwich and the bacon was cooked perfectly. The corn side is a cold dish and it was actually pretty good too. My co-worker ordered a grilled cheese with a soup and she was very happy with her choice. The soup was well served. At the end we ordered a banana bread to go, which i really loved it. It was a bit strong on the cinnamon but i didn't mind. Most important is that it was not dry and delicious. Overall we had a good time, good food and the staff was very friendly.

Hadn't been here in over 10 years & it was so nice to finally go! The chill ambiance, tasty simple food & great live music? Sold! Service is fast & patient with explaining menu

Ella's is the GOAT of coffee places in Broward county! Great vibes and great people always ready to be super polite every time I go. I've been going for years and the coffee never disappoints. The prices are getting up there but then again what isn't. Still worth every penny when I want a special treat.

Ken R.

Drove all the way here and this is the second time I've come and the hours posted aren't the actual hours and they were closed. Not gonna try a this time and keep guessing.

The vibes at this cafe are fantastic! Really easy to order at the coffee bar and find your seating or wait in the waiting area for your to-go order. I loved the attention to detail in the waiting area and the fact that they even had one. Staff is very welcoming, kind, and fast! We didn't order food this past visit, but everything always smells and looks delicious as it tastes. We did enjoy our coffees though! My fiancé ordered an iced vanilla latte and I ordered the iced french toast latte. Both were great but honestly it was kinda hard to notice the difference in flavor between the two. The coffee itself was enjoyable and the homemade syrups were still yummy.

Lauren K.

Yelp
Cute outside and indoor area. Very busy inside and not a lot of parking in the plaza. Line was long but coffee came out fast. Got the rosemary and caramel iced latte. The rosemary was subtle it wasn't too sweet. Would have like some caramel drizzle. The heart shaped cookie and presentation are lovely. Indoors had live music. The desserts looked enticing. Would go back but a bit over priced $7 latte. Nice staff. Cute decor.

Sarai R.

Yelp
What a VIBE!!! I love how people come in to work, school or read. A cozy coffee or matcha does just the trick. They don't have a menu, their staff comes in early just to cook and display the food for presentation, which i love since i am such a visual person. The soup and sandwich were truly homey and comforting. I can't wait to return with a book in my hand and hang out. Thanks Ela Cafe.

Gabe H.

Yelp
The food is delicious - this egg and cheese sandwhich is fresh and flavorful And by far one of my favorite lattes is their French toast latte I have it made with oatmilk. It's always busy but when I come to get some work done outside the office it's always my go to spot. Service is friendly and quick and though the music is a little loud it's not distracting. 5 GSki's

Best Iced (or hot) Cortada on north side Coral Springs. Friendly staff. Glad Ella has and continues to expand in and around Coral Springs.

Collin E.

Yelp
I really enjoy Ella Cafe. The drinks are incredible, especially with their homemade flavors/syrups--I'm particularly fond of the Rosemary Caramel. Their food offerings are impressive and have such a wonderful taste profile, though I wish they had more protein options beyond bacon for greater variety. The music is very loud, which I love as it enhances the ambiance, but if you need a quiet place to study, work, or take calls, this might not be the best spot. The service is awesome, with fantastic recommendations. The vibe is extremely cozy, though adding cushions to the chairs would be a nice touch.

Lina S.

Yelp
I recently visited this delightful spot and was thoroughly impressed! The ambiance is super cute, and the staff are incredibly friendly. I ordered a caffe latte with almond milk, and it was absolutely delicious - with honey lavender syrup ! Although I didn't try their food this time, I'm definitely looking forward to it on my next visit. Highly recommended for a great coffee experience! .

Great muffin and croissant. Coffee was good and the ambiance was really relaxing. I could have spent all day in there. The line moved super quick.

Kate S.

I've been here a couple of times now, when visiting my aunt who lives in the area. It is such a cute coffee shop! They don't have menus which is a little odd, but they have a sample of each sandwich at the counter, and the staff happily tells you what is in each one when asked. My mom and I shared the French and American sandwiches. Both were very tasty, but we both preferred the American...who doesn't love a sandwich with bacon?? I also had an iced vanilla chai latte which was fantastic, and my mom was happy with her cappuccino. We also got a carrot cake muffin to go, which was very good.

Jennifer T.

Yelp
Probably the best Caprese sandwich I've ever had. The French toast latte was incredible! I will definitely visit more often.

Vivian T.

Yelp
Very nice atmosphere to get work done or read, friendly staff, presentation is nice, and the drink was good. I rarely order chai but the dirty chai was decent. If I were to order it again however, I would not recommend cinnamon powder on top as it hardens if not sipped off immediately and is not pleasant to drink

I came to Ella Cafe recently to meet up with old friends whom I haven't seen in a long time. The space could do with more tables, considering it is a popular cafe to visit in South Florida. We luckily were able to secure a table by the door that fit 3 people, but I did notice that a couple tables were left dirty with previous customers' dishes for a while, which was why I was not able to sit at those larger tables. The coffee itself was good, but not spectacular, especially for the price. I do admit that the presentation of drinks and food were cute though, and I think that may add to why this place is popular. I ordered an iced latte with hazelnut (asked the barista to do light hazelnut syrup since I don't really like my coffee too sweet). I would recommend this place to anyone visiting, but would not choose this place for my go-to spot as it is on the pricier side, probably for its ambiance and aesthetic.

Yelp
A quaint little coffee shop in Plantation where you can get a craft coffee drink and a delicious snack. The music is pretty loud, so I would not recommend this place as a great place to study or work away from home. You can save a little time in getting your coffee order if you process it through their online order system. Once you get your items, there is seating inside and outside on little cafe tables. No real group seating as you would expect as this place would be great for a social gathering. Either way, their coffees are good, and pricing is in line with all the other local coffee cafes.

Laurie W.

Yelp
This is a cute coffee shop. I had the sticky banana latte. My barista made it perfectly. I love sweet coffee drinks. But usually avoid them. But I was on vacation! The pastries looked delicious but I had enough sugar in the coffee for the day. I will be back when I am in the area.

Jennifer Q.

Yelp
Haven't been to Ella's in a few years. I came here to study during lunch and found many others were doing just the same. Service is friendly and recommended I try this Nutella drink. It was sweet and delicious just what I was looking for. I had the caprese salad as well. They were playing Christmas music which was nice however a tad too loud, I'd bring headphones if your coming to work/study. Will definitely be coming back!

Alexandra H.

Yelp
Ella Cafe is such a cozy spot with great vibes! This cute little cafe is a great place to relax with a coffee and a little bite to eat. They offer a wide variety of hot and cold coffees and several different pastries and sandwiches. The aesthetics of this cafe is so picturesque, even how they bring you your coffee on a wooden tray with a small heart-shaped cookie. The service was tremendous! I'd definitely come back, especially if they have events or a live band on the stage that's in the back of the cafe!

Isabel V.

Yelp
I really love this café. It is so quaint and cute inside. They have seasonal flavors that have some really delicious concepts. Their sandwiches and snacks and desserts are also made fresh daily and my favorite is the chocolate croissant. A lot of people come and work here so it may be a little bit packed inside and hard to find seating. There's not much space to sit outside, but it is a nice café to come to.

Yelp
It's been a yr and even though this place is not close to my home I sometimes find myself driving the distance for that good ol sticky banana latte. By no means is this a well oiled machine. The line is always super long and cashier always seem to have too many jobs. I can't understand how someone could be ringing up customers, taking cash and then partially making drinks. I can say that not one person makes the drinks the same, which is unfortunate. I've now tried the hazelnut-Ella latte as well which is also amazing. When they are out of the sticky banana this one does the trick. The omelette sandwich is great. My score has came down some because they are constantly out of things first thing in the morning, especially the oat milk. They use to put a sign on the door letting you know, that way you don't have to stand in that long line for nothing. Anyways I still recommend them they just need to do better.

Food C.

Yelp
It's one of the worst cappuccino I have had. And they are super expensive! Place is conveniently located but coffee is super expensive and not worth the price.

Michael J.

Very cute ;-) some cool food selections too . A little bit too cold inside for mornings, but we can overlook that

Nancy L.

Yelp
I love a good coffee place! I've been going to Ella's for quite some time. My go to drink order is the hazelnut Ella, it has just the right amount of sweetness. The pastries are always so tasty! I love the lemon poppy seed pastry as well as the Nutella twist, those are both great options! They also have sandwiches and and small bites as well. The staff is always so friendly early Sunday mornings. The place is always cozy and a nice atmosphere overall, it's clean and I like to do work here sometimes! This place is located in a busy plaza so there is a lot going on but luckily there is always parking in the early mornings!! I would like to try their other coffee flavors as they usually have specials like French toast, and other bold flavors I wouldn't think to try in my coffee.

Samantha D.

Yelp
Cute little coffee shop for a nice start to the day. The menu items are limited but tasty. I had the frittata and it was delicious. The lavender iced coffee was more on the bitter side but adding some sugar on the side made it better. Service was quick and efficient. Definitely a lovely little spot to stop and read a book or enjoy some time with company.

Mark S.

Yelp
Ella is a very nice place inside. The lighting is dark and there was live music. It is also very popular so you know people love it. There were people reading, laughing, and just enjoying each other's company. That is always nice to see. The coffee is really good and you know it isn't some run of the mill brand. It was smooth and not bitter. The service was great as well. We had a girl that kept checking in on us. The big thing for me though was it was 30$ for a 2 coffees, a yogurt, and a slice of banana bread. I don't understand how a 12 ounce coffee is 7$ I would recommend giving this place a shot though. If it was cheaper, it would probably be a 5 star review

Siddiqua A.

Yelp
Just wanted to give Kudos to the entire Ella Staff and management for always having the best service, food and ambience. To the Barista who made my latte, you did such a pretty design. It was a whole latte love. As per usual I ordered The mozzarella pesto sandwich and it was delish, paired with the Walnut grape salad. For dessert I had the banana bread and it was so scrumptious, then I bought another one to go. Thank you Ella's for making my day, such a sweet one! Happy 1st of March

Amanda T.

Yelp
I have been coming to Ella's for years, since 2016. Their coffee and cafe atmosphere has not changed. The employees are always friendly and the service is always good. They have so many coffee options with unique flavors and pastries, sandwiches, and lunch items.

Jennifer V.

Yelp
Ella is a cute little cafe that brings you fresh and delicious coffee and sandwiches! They have other treats as well but I always like to get their sandwich's because it usually comes with a side. Their coffee is delicious and they even have homemade syrups as well! Service is always great and the staff always greets you when you walk in! If you're looking for a cafe for a date, to study, or to catch up with friends this is the place! They are kid and dog friendly!

Kirsten W.

Yelp
This place is super cute! The decor is wonderful and cozy. They even had a live musician playing for a while. After the musician left, they put on a really catchy playlist. The food was pricey, but not bad. It is definitely on the smaller side. When I came in for lunch, there were no seats inside or outside. I waited for a table to open up for my friend and I. The waitress was very friendly and receptive to my questions about the menu. They had a visual menu which was alluring. However, I needed a menu with the listed ingredients because I have food allergies. They said they didn't have one when I asked, but I found one online. Overall, It's a nice spot to study or catch lunch with a great music selection. You may have to wait for a table. I would recommend looking up the menu online to make ordering easier.

Steph H.

Yelp
This has become one of my favorite coffee shops when in south Florida. They offer a great variety of interesting coffee flavors although my go to is the Hazelnut Ella cold brew, a classic! The breakfast items are all good that I have had, but they can be a little pricey! They have a good amount of seating and it's comfortable to dine in. I believe they also sometimes do evening open mic events. Worth a visit!
