I would recommend Elsa's to everybody who loves food. You definitely can't go wrong with this shop. Friendly services, really good food and affordable prices. You can even take a dish bowl for the lady and she will make your order in your own dish! Really a great place to get really nice home made food and desserts.
This is one of the "old" Pretoria gems! This business is a great place to get you fresh "old vasion bough nuts" daily! You must make this a stop on your way👍. There are a few other treats that you can also add to your shopping experience. I visit this shop on a regular basis and still find in a great experience!
Elsa's was well-known for friendly faces, well-stocked fridges and the most amazing curry mince vetkoek. My experience today was very disappointing. One half-stocked fridge and very little choice. Worst of all the vetkoek ranged from over fried and brown to very over fried and dark brown. The curry mince was not tasty. A very disappointing visit.
I would like to express my gratitude to Sarna and Magriet for their style and finesse. Most delicious food to choose from. They are working sò hard but still are exceptionally kind. This is a place to visit if you want to buy something special! The platter I bought was VERY special and delicious! Thank you- thank you!!
Well, Elsa's has been around just as long... as her recipes, it seems. In all my years of visiting, sometimes buying, other times browsing, never changed. Tell you what did though. The prices. 2 pies and 1 tray of mini sausage rolls for R145?? Wow. Never stocked. Always the same lame one or two pies and a quiche. Never something new. Time for an upgrade ladies! Move with the times, or you will get left behind....
I bought absolutely delicious pies, vetkoek and cake pops here. The service was great and the baked goods are really divine. It is just a pity that both times I visited, they were out of stock of their famous doughnuts. The prices are right for such high quality food.
