The food and drinks were excellent! There was a little wait but it wasn’t bad! I just wish there were prices on the menu so people can know what they’re buying. It doesn’t make sense to me why there wouldn’t be, since everything else is so excellent here! I got a maple latte and French toast and it was $20. It wasn’t horribly priced, but i wish that I would’ve known this before ordering in the long line of patrons. My friend got the eggs Benedict and a matcha and spent about 30-40 if I remember?

Worth the quest does not even begin to describe going here. I like many others found a video on TikTok and wanted to see what it was like-- and coming here was better than I could have expected. The vibe is perfect with music and deco that makes it feel like you are set up for a grand adventure. Fantastic coffee and great food-- get the hash brown if you want the best thing ever. Topped off with delightful staff making this an all around win.

Magical atmosphere stunning details infused into every inch of the place. Quick, friendly service and the food and drinks were great too (summer backyard garden quality tasting tomato in November? Maybe hobbits really do run it!). 10/10 met and exceed expectations.

As LOTR fans, we were so excited to stop by on a recent roadtrip. The interior and atmosphere inside was beautiful, but the flow of service could have been better. We arrived early - with only a few couples in front of us - but we waited about 30 minutes to order and another 20 minutes to receive our drinks. By the time, we ordered, the line was out the door behind us.

The cashier was also the barista, which greatly slowed down service. There was additional staff only running food, but it would have been more efficient for someone to instead assist with coffee orders. Overall, a spot with great potential with some improvement to their work flow!

Beautiful, cozy hobbit themed cafe. Tried the maple leaf latte, it was delicious and was served in an adorable pumpkin mug. Definitely will be back to try breakfast. This cafe is a lovely addition to the charm of Brunswick Main Street.

Brought my daughters while we were on a road trip and we loved it! My oldest was so happy that they served clotted cream! I loved the theme.

I had seen the buzz and have been waiting for them to open and finally got there for brunch. Was tempted to order everything but settled on the healing hash browns which were extra crispy and had great flavor. We got the scone with clotted cream and jam which we felt were the best scones we ever had. Also got the brass sandwich with onion ring and chile oil…so good and I got the smoked salmon bene which had perfectly poached eggs and great flavor.
It felt like we were transported into hobbit land with attention to detail including dragon knockers, a hobbit door with push button eyeball that talked and the bathrooms were little worlds in themselves.
The service was friendly and quick.
We need more restaurants like this in the community that bring fantasy to life!

Elevenses is a must-visit for Tolkein fans but also anyone who loves a good theme. The atmosphere is amazing. Theyre a new business and have had some time getting up to speed, but every time we go, its better. I cant wait until they open up their expanded menu. Its very kid friendly, too! The attention to detail is over the top. We haven't ordered the big plate items or cocktails yet (just coffees and scones, lembas bread, bakery items, etc.) But they always look lovely. And the bakery items and coffee drinks are creative and fairly priced.

You HAVE to visit here! Whether you are a LOTRs junkie or you just enjoy an earthy, fantasy vibe this is the most beautiful spot. The attention to detail was insane and you truly are transported to a cozy middle earth eatery. Not to mention the staff were very friendly and helpful, and the food and drinks were scrumptious! Penelope took our order and was very patient, kind and helpful as it was our first time there and had trouble deciding which yummy thing to try! It’s the perfect spot if you want to just stop in and grab a coffee, or maybe stay and read a book! This was seriously one of the best experiences I’ve ever had and I’d recommend it to anyone. I can’t wait to go back!

Good vibes. Felt inconvenient because they did not have prices on the menu. Food and Drink-wise pretty average ( I think people with sweet tooth and people okay with smaller portions compared to total costs would like it better), ambience-wise pretty good. Having prices on the menu would have been a lot more helpful (felt misleaded on this sector).

Had a lovely 2nd breakfast here. Also a lovely talk with a staff about the many upcoming events they plan to hold! My geeky heart is full.
Had the walking jacket potatoes. Absolutely delicious. And perfect size for this little hobbit!

We loved this place! Lembas bread, hashbrowns, and breakfast sandwich were so good. We hope to come back again soon.

Very cool hobbit themed restaurant. Food was pricy since it’s in a popular tourist area, but it was good. Service is terrible, basically order at counter and hope a place to sit opens up. The menu uses a lot of hobbit themed naming but lacks clear descriptions so hard to know what everything actually is - with a crowd at the counter to order, no one really want to be the one asking for descriptions. Pastries are on display so easier to figure out. Tourists will keep this place going I’m sure, not so sure they’ll get any regular local support beyond the more affluent.
