Elsa opted for a low-key outfit - a black hoodie with navy leggings - teamed with a beige cross body bag and high top sneakers with red laces. 

The blonde beauty styled her luscious locks in a messy ponytail and accessorised with a couple of rings on her hands.

At one point, her daughter interrupted the conversation and jumped in her mother's lap.

Soon after the group got up to take their place inside the cafe, Elsa was still busy chatting to her brunette pal.

Last month her husband, Avengers star Chris, surprised Year 12 students at Immanuel College in Adelaide, with a 'tremendous surprise'.

The Thor actor, 36, shared a special video message to students from his base in Byron Bay, to launch their Year 12 jumper, designed by the school's prefects. 

In the video, a casually dressed Chris said to the students: 'Hey there, guys. I just wanted to give a big shout-out to all the Year 12 students at Immanuel College 2020.

'Enjoy the jumper designed by your prefects, enjoy the year, have fun, see you soon.'
