Rolled up to get a frozen chai and a light-iced latte.
Prices compared even to Starbucks were blasted thanks to inflation quite a bit, but their drinks were excellent. Only ding here is that when one requests "light" ice, it's with the expectation that the drink will still be topped off, but unfortunately that wasn't the case.
Dunkin', Starbucks, and Wawa chain-wise and Coffee Culture local-wise still reign supreme, but I wouldn't mind giving Ellianos another shot. They chose a good location that is a relative coffee desert in High Springs.
Amazing coffee & staff! Drive thru only with no walk up. Had to park & walk through the drive thru. Ordered large iced coffees and were advised they were out of large cups so we were given medium drinks and a cup of ice. Apparently the only difference between a medium and a large is they add more ice in a large. So save your money. Lol.
Elliianos where have you bean my whole life? Coffee is apart of my daily grind and I can’t get over how terrific this coffee is! Worth the detour off the highway. We were on route to ATL and this coffee is worth the drive from Tampa! I had the cold brew and a quad over ice. Long lines for a reason but service was prompt and the brew is well worth any wait. Deeply sweet, intensely aromatic. Crazy good flavors of dark chocolate, pink peppercorn, wisteria, apricot, myrrh, all my hopes and dreams in aroma and cup. Richly sweet-toned in structure with lively, juicy acidity; syrupy-smooth dazzling mouthfeel. The finish is long and lingering: richly flavor-saturated, chocolaty, floral-toned. Eff please come to Tampa Bay! I can’t espresso how much I love you!
It's never to cold for a Carmel Freezer. They certainly have a very distinctive taste, don't get me wrong, it's a very good taste. I've only gotten their Freezers, so I can't comment on their other drinks but I'm sure they are yummy. Some many say it's too sweet, but really it isn't, it's just the way they make their drinks. The gentleman at the window taking our order was very friendly and polite. We went around 1pm on Saturday and it wasn't very busy. They have 2 drive up windows on each side of the building, which makes it go much quicker.
Quick tasty coffee always served with a smile. I enjoy going to this Ellianos location. The staff is always very friendly. The service is always fast and the coffee is always delicious. They also serve breakfast sandwiches that taste good. I will always recommend this to people over Starbucks anytime.
Love their coffee coolers. Look forward to going back and trying a smoothie next!! Friend of mine had posted a photo of a drink it looked so good. And the girl who took care of us was so enthusiastic, it was a nice change from all the grumpy people we usually encounter on our location visits.
100/10 Always a great experience! The staff is very friendly and fast!! The coffee coolers are my go to and there's a different flavor each day! I enjoy my late afternoon coffee runs on my break at work 😊the only thing I wish they had were bigger cups 🤪 Literally puts Starbuck to shame. Thank you Ellianos 😊💓

I found this place on a whim. I was just driving through and I'm so glad I stopped. My coffee was rich and creamy and sweet. It was simply perfect.
