Elephant Grounds

Elephant Grounds excels with its coffee ice cream sandwiches, selling 1,200 units monthly at the ELGIN location alone. Terrace seating accommodates 40 patrons, ideal for people-watching over a cold brew that takes 18 hours to steep. They’re 20% cheaper than the typical rival for a flat white, and outperforms Coffee Academics in dessert innovation, though Halfway Coffee edges them in cozy ambiance.
