A quaint little cafe in the French quarter 🥐☕️ LEGO Friends Heartlake City Cafe build & review

Ooo la la! This new cafe for Heartlake City (est 1932 so maybe not new?) is tres magnifique. I also love the build process for this set, you get straight into building the shop goodies - biscuits, croissants and a stunning array of macaroons. Plus the most scrummy gateaux. You're going to love this little corner cafe in your LEGO city. Plus there's offstreet scooter parking 👍🏻
If you've just dropped by, I'm Ellie! Lego is an artistic medium and no matter your building expertise there is something here for everyone. Stick around and I'll build for you while I review new sets and create my own customs (MOCs). I tend to geek out about new pieces, get excited about learning new and interesting building techniques, giggle too much and just generally ramble. I'm easily distracted so things can get a bit hectic, but I'm sure you're down for that.
And don't forget that you can also get an ellieV t-shirt and other stuff from here! teespring.com/stores/elliev-t...

This set should have an entire basket of baguettes

[@ellieV]

It should! Nomnomnom

[@roodshaven]

1 hour ago 🤩🤩🤩

[@itsbeccarose]

One super cute easter egg I noticed -- the café sign with the croissant says "since 1932." That's the year that Lego as a company was founded!

[@16taysia]

That is a really cool Easter egg!!😊❤

[@ellieV]

Aaaaaaah I wondered about the significance of the date. I probably should have known that 🤔. For some reason I always think Lego is much older than it is

[@HANNtasticBrix2358]

I saw that too!!

[@user-rx9dw1ol5t]

The cafe is so great that I forget it's Lego. That's right. You have to focus on anything. In that sense, Ellie's concentration when playing Lego is really great. It's the part I always admire ^^ And, it gives you pleasure throughout the viewing. I'm so grateful. 😊❤❤❤❤❤

[@user-rx9dw1ol5t]

I like Ellie's own Lego because it has its own characteristics. It's so great to make a cafe with Lego. As expected, pink macarons look more delicious because they are pink. 😊❤❤❤

[@user-lv5zz7wv6l]

What I love about this set It’s sweet Olly’s beanie Paisleys shirt It ties in with the mobile bakery It could rival the diner as the friends hangout after school

[@juliettgray62]

Wow I got Olly's beanie hat and I got Paisley's pants several times

[@kesmaxwell1930]

"Back off Jules, it's mine!!" 😂😂😂

[@ellieV]

I love Jules but I ain’t sharing

[@Yuto_Lloyd]

@@ellieV agreed.

[@laurenluckie5349]

It amazes me that now even Lego buildings are handicap accessible, yet there are still public spaces that are not! I found the ramp feature so cool! I’m in a wheelchair, so I definitely appreciate these details!

[@jenneferpierce5647]

Paisley’s shirt is adorable❤❤❤❤❤

[@EmmaHarris-uf1wc]

Such a cute set

[@juliettgray62]

Cool i have Olly's new beanie hat hairpiece in the adventure camp treehouse i got yesterday

[@sadieduck23]

The style reminds me of the community centers style (shape)

[@Giyuu_Tomioka690]

OMG- THIS SHOWED UP ON MY RECOMMENDATIONS! I LITERALLY USED TO WATCH YOU ALL THE TIME AS A KID!!

[@aliciaheath8891]

Something that Lego forget to add in that set is a bathroom for the customers/employees.. especially if you are working in the food district.

[@MichaelJWeiler]

Haha good one!

[@DreamingClouds-by6yg]

Hi ellie! I've just wanted to say that I'm amazed that you are still posting as I used to watch you when I was younger! Keep it up!

[@TERRORoftheLORD]

I love how Olly Was Holding that Cup almost THE WHOLE time.

[@Yuto_Lloyd]

He was waiting for his tea that he never got 😭

[@MissMollyBuilds]

The cafe is so cute I really like it! I Love the souper cute new dog print to! This chocolate cake looks so good and the croissant truck and the cafe is a perfect addition to any city or town. It makes me think of Parise.

[@Sabrina-wh8fr]

Yayyyyy this is adorable and soooo pretty. It’s my 17th birthday today and I’m going to be a senior in HS. I’ve been a fan since 2017 with the calico critters videos. I love your vibe and your joy inevitably. You’re an awesome person, Ellie ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ellieV]

Happy birthday!! Hope it’s a great day 😘

[@joshhorn8283]

Great Job!❤

[@AicKamilaKolarova]

Omgggg finally you build these! So excited love this🩷🌸

[@sadieduck23]

Ellie says, “back off Jewels, it’s mine!” 😂

[@Frapucchino_playz]

Love this set man it’s sick

[@LiphsitaGhose]

OMGGGGG I love the colours!!! I never thought black, white and neon green would go SO well together....

[@ellieV]

It should have cheese! It needs an expansion for the bread and 🧀

[@Chen_Zin]

This set is lovely❤

[@marfaretlillian1]

Beatriz is one of the dolls I just have to steal off Bricklink this year. That is literally the cutest print I’ve ever seen 😭😭😭

[@suzannelinsley3680]

So cozy 👍

[@Princesskitty45]

Hi I love all of your videos keep up the great work on your channel ^^

[@ZoomReverseFlash]

Olly and Paisley on a date again 😊

[@Black_Crow_Productions]

the cafe is soooooo nice i wish i had that set!!! i love you sooooo much.

[@ProductRandomReviews]

I honestly wish the regular Lego line made a new affordable Cafe like this one.

[@SusanGaskin]

Thank you for another awesome video! The building of new sets videos are my favorites of yours and this set is super cute!

[@deannahicks2749]

I loved this set. I built it earlier this week.y favorite thing to do is build my Lego sets while watching your videos

[@dimitravargiamidou5643]

One of my must have sets. Definitely one of the first ones I'll get when the shipments arrive and they appear on shelves!

[@Riley-tm5zc]

Hey Ellie Would you ever give us an updated tour of your built Lego sets? Btw I love your channel. I have been watching your videos since 2018 and I have always loved your channel ❤❤❤❤

[@bl0ndwave]

Such a lovely little café! I'm sure I've said it a couple of times before, but I have a soft spot for those tiny café builds. This one is particularly cute. I'm only getting more and more sure that this reminds me of Aziraphale's colour scheme. I might consider buying this once it's on sale 😀 ~Wavey ;)

[@ellieV]

You could have a whole street of Lego for Aziraphale at this rate!

[@bl0ndwave]

@@ellieV Oh, don't tempt me 🤣😏

[@user-pb8jx7xe4g]

My money is all over this really cute set 🤩

[@user_3457]

I think the café is a modern version of the bakery from 2013. The architecture reminds me on this.

[@maisfahed]

In my lego world I would make a lego ellie and make her a celebrity

[@robloxanimator6653]

Omg Ellie I just bought and built up this set and it's sooo cute!!!! I plan on buying the food cart to go with this as well. Btw, I believe this set can also connect to the community center!

[@aliciapozzo9947]

i love the cafe, so cute. I have the cart, so yes i will be adding this to my city.

[@robynbrown1154]

I have andrea's mansion (comes with the cafe box) the cafe cart, and now the cafe. I have a little trio of cafe references and its so fun!!

[@TheEvillustrator]

I literally have a baguette in my hand rn

[@Yuto_Lloyd]

Oh my god it’s you again

[@user-uv2zc2vr9f]

love it!

[@Jessica-bj5ct]

This is a set that you can not forget

[@SARISS80]

Love it. I just ordered my own.

[@dapperdanny2957]

This set is a definite pick up. Gonna buy three and make it a mini modular for my Lego city street.

[@SwitchbackSylveon]

I bought this set on June 1st! I think it goes well with last years diner

[@cokessshape179]

I love your vids😊

[@musinggc]

In case you didn't notice, 1932 is a reference to the year LEGO was founded. Idk just thought it was an interesting easter egg

[@itsnotcandies324]

Good morning Ellie!!!♥♥♥♥♥♥

[@ellieV]

Morning!

[@BrianBorges-ez3ls]

Hey Ellie! On the front of the box, why did Lego put the cute little doggo and his water bowl in the middle of the road where he's clearly about to be run over by Ollie on his scooter?!🫣🐕🛵 Great build, Ellie! (Luckily it's in the Heart lake "French Quarter" and not Paris, because the pre-Olympics prices would rival Eras Tour tickets!)💕

[@ellieV]

😂 I reckon the doggo has street smarts. Such a clever little doggo 😉

[@TheEvillustrator]

Dog: **casually eating dinner** Olly: I WOKE UP IN A NEW BUGATTI

[@16taysia]

I'm like number 222! 😂❤

[@books4life846]

Have you seen the season two trailer? It looks like all the sets we got recently are going to be utilized in season two!

[@customania2000]

I hope you can modify Tiana's Restaurant with this set💚

[@anniella29]

You're so entertaining as always, Ellie. I always want to buy the sets I watch you make 😂

[@user-lv5zz7wv6l]

Ellie if you do learn the Lego colours names you should do a video about the different colours

[@minndean]

There are so many colours and they work so well together! Top notch design. Ollie’s beanie is hilarious 😂 I love it. Just bought a stack of beanies for Martin (he’s doing worlds greatest shave next week) but sadly none were bright coral! Do you know how difficult it is to find beanies in colour? We ended up in the girls section of H&M after we exhausted the only colourful choices for boys - gaming related naturally - and finally found some coloured knits. Why they segregate children’s clothing by gender, particularly accessories, baffles me! I want to know where Olly shops for my little colour-loving boy! Every time we walk into a “boys” section of any store you see his little face fall at the sea of grey, blue and black. Ok putting the rant away! I know it’s more a 50’s vibe but my child of the 80’s brain and all the colour kept making me think Cafe 80’s (where it’s always morning, even in the afternoo-ooo-oon). I do love that they restore these old buildings in HLC, instead of knocking them down and putting up another Guzmen’s 😒

[@ellieV]

It’s silly that the divide still exists. Good luck to Martin for the greatest shave, glad you’ve got some beanies!

[@minndean]

Thanks he did really well and now looks like Aang! Managed to raise a whopping $1700 for leukaemia, too!

[@normasurtees7597]

Your posting this the day my sister go it

[@majanno.fan.]

Wait,I bought the same thing today in the Toy Store and I had a paper bags there

[@user-re3xx9jk1k]

It's not breaces, it's suspenders.

[@Meandthesistersidrew]

If you live in Australia don't go to Kmart go to big W it's cheaper by up to $40 dollers and that's not on sale

[@user-yp6qq4mi8k]

Ellie, can you make twilight saga characters, my birthday is coming up so at least do Bella and Edwards house with there child ( I forgot the name 😂 )

[@ladida7841]

Lego Disney Princess.

[@Lordodragonss]

Only problem I have with this set is that it cant be easily put next to road system, and thats fult of badly used plates. I dont understand why lego is cutting corners (LIKE LITTERALY). For example, why back has 2x10 plate missing on floor???

[@levisanchez2717]

What did olly do😢

[@kashvisinghyadav2791]

The cream on the cake was actually poop pieces…

[@Yuto_Lloyd]

Crying dear lord what! 😭

[@kathywarren8575]

people who have a weird allergy👇

[@ButteredBread201]

I read in a book that Sir Lenny Henry (British icon) is apparently allergic to chicken. But then again, the book said Lego started in the 60s, which is obviously false as it started in 1932.

[@raffaello8464]

I dont like the choice and combination of colours of this set

[@ButteredBread201]

Agreed. It should be more like the moped colour scheme wise
