“First of all, great coffee and incredible pastries. After all, isn't that what you go to a café for? Prices are not cheap but I found myself able to live with them.

But, as the name suggests, this is much more than just a coffee shop. It is a very elevated and enlightened vibe here and the superfriendly staff are happy to share their experiences with you.
Taking a coffee shop stop to an almost spiritual level, with a dash of mystery added to the brew.

The atmosphere, in keeping with the vibe, is aesthetically pleasing in an almost tantric, hypnotic way.

The post it notes that let us leave out thoughts and the system of paying it forward for others are very nice touches that seem oh so apropos to the café.

Spiritual Seekers Sinay says:
The surroundings of the coffee shop are inspirational. There is a nearby park but virtually every view from the side of the road is worthy of park-level acclamation.😉

Not too far from Elevate, there is a Cambodian Buddhist temple. If you want to continue your ascent in holistic elevation, you might consider dropping by here, as well.“

“One of my favorite places to stop before work! Clean and cozy atmosphere, amazing food. Gotta check it out :)“

“We were there at the Regency for a 2 day conference and this was very convenient for us with a short lunch break. The food came fast and was very good. It was a beautiful day and very pleasant. The noise level was what I expected for a summer day in the Old Port with the background music blocking most noise.“

“What a cool, unique spot to get drinks and desert. Highly recommend the mocha martini and the flourless torte. The espresso martini was good, but was very alcohol forward leaving me missing some of the classic espresso taste. The crème brûlée’s flavor was spot on, but unfortunately the sugar crust was a bit thick and didn’t shatter right. Overall a great little place!“

“We visited on a late Saturday afternoon in mid-June 2025.

We found street parking a couple blocks away. The cafe is in the basement of the museum near the bathrooms and water fountains. There is a large meeting room or lecture all auditorium thing we believe too just further down the basement.

We did not actually eat anything here but we did take a bunch of pictures hoping to help others out. We actually didn't see any staff while we visited and we weren't sure if they were already closed for the day or what.“
