Stumbled across this place while going on a walk on Mongolia. Beautiful inside, didn’t go on a too busy of a time so was able to chill in the couch seating they have. The baristas were able to recommend drinks to me. I tried the Charcoal Rose Latte (made it half sweet) and it was so good. Very refreshing and a different drink I have never tried before. So many drinks to choose from! Would definitely come in again!

This is my favorite place to drink matcha, it is the best taste ever - strong and very high quality. I especially recommend “Rose Matcha Latte” with rose petals on top and “Lavender Matcha Latte”, also the “Sage Ham & Cheese Croissant” is great!

Coffee and pastries are delicious, staff is welcoming to humans and dogs (they have dog treats). The service is fast and it has an adorable outside area. The only drawback about this place is that it doesn’t have a restroom for customers.

Watered down coffee, bad quality and rude staff that doesn’t care about their customers. Plenty of other coffee shops in Burbank that’s gonna be a better choice.

The plain black iced tea was the size of a grande at Starbucks and was $5.75!! Only vegan food was a lemon poppy muffin (no thanks), but barista pointed out other gluten free options- all of them NOT vegan. It would be SO easy to offer the same pastries vegan.
Fantastic drinks, tasty pastries, and friendly service! I tried both the coffee and matcha options, and they were spot on. The barista was super friendly and clearly knew how to craft well-balanced drinks. The Charcoal Raspberry Latte was a standout—unique and unlike any other charcoal latte I’ve had, with just the right blend of earthy and fruity notes. The Lavender Matcha was light, refreshing, and not too sweet. Pastries were fresh and flavorful—the Blueberry Jam Muffin and Mixed Berry muffin were moist, not overly sweet, and tasted homemade. Overall, a great spot with creative drinks and a welcoming vibe. I’ll definitely be back to try more!

I just ordered a chagachino from this place and it literally tasted like straight cane sugar with no taste of chaga, did not taste healthy at all. Just complete artificial flavors and a pound of sugar masked as “chaga”. I am truly so disappointed.

Black Elephant Coffee is a hidden gem in Burbank for true coffee lovers. You can tell they’re fully focused on making the best brews, everything from their espresso to specialty drinks is top-tier. The staff is friendly, and the vibe is warm and welcoming. However, the space is more suited for relaxing or catching up with a friend than for working or business meetings, limited seating and not the most laptop-friendly setup. Still, if you’re here for the coffee, you won’t be disappointed.

My favorite spot to get Stumptown nitro cold brew in Burbank. Great seating area outside and quick service!

Coffee has never missed. Staff is super friendly. Free treats for dogs. The only thing that may be inconvenient is that seating is outdoors, though that's never been an issue for me specifically.
