Elke's Market Cafe

What a great find, in a totally anonymous strip mall in Allen no less. A very cool cafe with a small wine-centric market in a separate area. We had samwiches today, mine on molasses wheat bread - pimento cheese, bacon, lettuce, candied jalapenos, and peach preserves. Absolutely up there with the best ever. Wife had BLT with avocado slices, ditto. We've had desserts before (not today) that were killer good. Go there, you will NOT be sorry

Stopped by here to get some bacon to go with donuts in an effort to create a balance breakfast for my daughter who wanted donuts. We were able to place a to go order of crispy bacon quickly and receive it quickly. The bacon was delicious, it was over cooked and had the right amount of crispy we wanted. The portion size was good as well, we were able to share the order of bacon with each other.

Very casual. Extremely welcoming counter! Tea room foods with small town feel and German flair. Delicious German potato salad! Good sandwiches! 🧁 look wonderful!

After I left a recommendation for a breakfast option in Allen on a FB post, I realized that I had never left Elke's a G review. The owners are super. They work very hard to make sure their customers are taken care of. I've had breakfast and catering bites from them. My favorites are the quiche and the catering options we were served at the Allen / Plano City Lifestyle event.

I miss Elke and Tim but the new owners are good people and they’re doing a good job! Everything is still fantastic. If you haven’t been to this place, you have to make a trip out to see them.

Always good food. Lots of fresh choices. Enjoyed the vegan Mediterranean bowl. My husband loves the soups.

This place is mainly for old ladies and husbands who get brought here by their wifes.. The food is great though , especially thier cupcakes

Great spot, came here for a business event, and had delicious hors d’oevres and a glass of wine. I’ll be back!

Super friendly, fast service and delicious food. Get the eagle if you like turkey sandwich.

Like wine? Try their monthly wine tastings. Kim does a fabulous job introducing incredible and affordable wines. I always learn so much from her! They also offer small bites and dinners during the wine tastings. I had a small welcome party for my daughter's return to the USA and Kim and her husband made charcuterie boards that were real crowd pleasers!

Top notch food and service! So happy to have found this place!

The food and the owners are incredible. This place is definitely a jewel.

I truly love coming to this peaceful and welcoming cafè. They are many times busy so plan ahead if you are going for lunch. My favorite is the chicken salad with a cup of fruit. The apricot chicken salad is very delicious too. The building is clean and the atmosphere is calming and clean. I am a big believer in "what the bathroom looks like so it the kitchen." I am happy to say the bathrooms are clean and nicely kept. The staff is busy but still friendly and welcoming. I love that their is still a home feel to the cafè.

I love working with Elke's on catered events and try to use them as often as I can. I highly recommend. They are attentive to special needs and always strive to go above and beyond. Exceptional service and quality. Collin College is an Elke's Market Cafe fan!

Everything is fresh and wonderful. The staff is pleasant. They have a little market attached as well.

Every time We come here the food Is delicious!! Also to the chocolate brownies are the soooo delicious! The have different bars of sweets!

The owners are awesome and nice too. There food there is awesome!!! Try it you wont be disappointed!!!

Wow! I just ate one of the one best sandwiches I’ve ever had here. The Other Nutty combines savory and sweet in this amazing turkey sandwich. I really love the menu here. There are sooo many options. I don’t know how they even make so much stuff. This place is always so clean and calm and peaceful. I bb love that they have a little shop attached nextdoor. I love the cute outdoor seating. There’s are homemade pastries at the register. Everything tastes fresh every time. Kudos!

I order from here 2-3 times a week! It’s literally my favorite place to get avocado toast! Their omelette…delicious…their quiche…top notch…the prices…chefs kiss!!! In my opinion…it put Corner and First watch to shame! Thanks for always having fresh affordable options and keep those avocado toasts coming! 10/10

The food here is so good. This is our go-to place to order food for friends or family, when they cannot get out of the house. A perfect place to get something frozen to have on hand, for your friends who just had a baby, or whatever. All delicious and easy.

Came for a networking event and the food was great! Love Elkes!!!
