    White mocha freeze and iced Tuscan toffee
    Debbie J.

    Love this local & free standing drive thru coffee shop. Menu is phenomenal with great descriptions of choices. I honestly get overwhelmed at coffee names and I like having it all in front of me to decide. Staff are helpful and friendly. Would love to see this franchise come to the Raleigh area!

    I've came here since they first opened and I've always had great experiences! The staff there are always so friendly and knowledgeable. They always give me great recommendations. I would highly recommend you trying it out here if you haven't already done so.

    I give Ellianos Coffee Company three stars. It's fine. This is a double-sided drive-thru coffee shop inspired by the drive-thru coffee shops of the Pacific Northwest. It's part of a regional chain with locations primarily in southern Georgia and northern Florida, mostly in small cities like Statesboro. An Ellianos opened where I live in Atlanta, in 2011, but it didn't last long. This one in Statesboro opened in 2012. You can find this small coffee shop in the parking lot of the Gentilly Square Shopping Center, next to Firehouse Subs, not far from Statesboro Mall and Walmart. The shopping center, which has a huge parking lot, is barren. There's no indoor seating, but there is outdoor seating in a small, fenced-in area in front of the store facing the road. There are a few round tables (two with umbrellas) and a picnic table. The patio has some plants and the fence is decorated with string lighting. The building itself looks nice from the outside with a part-stone facade, faux columns, and covered drive-thru windows. Most of Ellianos' drinks come in small, medium, and large sizes. The standard menu features eight espresso-based drinks (from $1.75 for a small espresso shot to $4.85 for a large white mocha or Carmella), standard coffees like a house brew, iced coffee, or cold brew ($1.90-3.70 each), latte "freezers" in almost a dozen different flavors (e.g. white mocha, vanilla, cookies & cream, and spiced chai; $3.85-5.25), smoothies ($3.85-6.15), and other beverages like hot chocolate, caramel apple cider, and "gourmet" tea ($2.00-4.50). The special menu includes signature creations like Tuscany toffee (toffee latte drizzled with caramel sauce) and Milan mint mocha (peppermint and dark chocolate) along with seasonal items. When we visited, these included pecan pie latte and creme de menthe (mint) mocha. Yum. Along with drinks, there's a limited food selection consisting of stuff like cookies ($2.50 each), muffins (three flavors; $2.45 each), breakfast croissants/bagels (three kinds, $3.85 each), and chocolate-covered espresso beans by the pound ($5 for 1/4 pound to $20 for 1 pound). We ordered two small iced Carmellas ($3.85 each) and a small Americano ($2.25) and they were OK. The Carmella is a vanilla and caramel-flavored latte. It was rich, very sweet, and had good caramel flavor. If I ordered it again, I would probably ask them to lighten up on the sugar/syrup. The Americano was standard. It was hot and tasty enough. Compared to the other cafes I've tried in Statesboro (Starbucks outside of Statesboro Mall and Three Tree Coffee Roasters), Ellianos' coffee has been the least impressive to me in terms of taste and quality. Don't get me wrong though - this place isn't bad; I've just had better experiences at the other places. The double-sided drive-thru is definitely convenient and a plus. We sat on the patio and our drinks were brought out to us. The patio was clean. We enjoyed sitting there; however, we also had to occasionally breathe in exhaust from the cars in line at the drive-thru. That wasn't fun. Service was great. The barista who took our order and brought our drinks out to us was friendly.

    The plastic I found in my mouth

    I usually love going there, but today was not so great. I went and got a small white mocha freezer and headed home. I got about 20 minutes away when I felt two little pieces of clear plastic in my mouth. I had drank about 1/5th of the drink at this point but I looked on the outside of the drink and didn't see anything. I stopped drinking it anyways just in case there was more and boy was there! I got home which is about 40 minutes away and started draining it and the more I drained the more concerned I got. Now I'm concerned about how much plastic and rubber?? I accidentally drank just thinking it was the ice. I called and they offered to remake it but I'm not driving back 40 minutes for a small coffee. I just wanted my $5 back and maybe for them to look at their machines because has to be messed up with this amount of plastic. Probably won't be back after this

    I was super excited to check out this small business, as I was nearby for an appointment. The…read morephotos and reviews on IG really made them standout from other area shops. On the afternoon I stopped in there was only 1 other person in the shop so our order was taken right away and made very quickly. My drink was delicious, but I often find that businesses post these great pictures to get you in and when you request said item it doesn't meet the same presentation as illustrated. I ordered what I believe was a Smores latte that had marshmallow, whipped cream and cookies on top. Well my latte didn't have any of the added toppings. I mean this is what bought me in and why I don't mind paying as much as I do because what is being advertised. It really comes off as false advertisement when you don't receive the same item being presented. And if it's a situation of the items not being available, the customer should have the option to decide if they would prefer something else instead. In this case, I was not told it wasn't available; I was just presented with the item once completed.

    Okay coffee, super limited snack / food options. Overall, the parking and seating situation always…read moremakes me shy away from going here. The baristas are nice, but I wish they had a back room with large bible study groups because no shade, they take up a lot of room and they are there for many hours; and on many occasions after work I've had to take my coffee to go because there was no where to sit.

We promptly got sat by the lovely staff working. We sat outside, I ordered an Aperol spritz and my husband got a Bloody Mary. All of our drinks were delicious, reasonably priced. The Bloody Mary wasn't spicy (although a table next to us was complaining it was...), and the Hugo spritz was SO refreshing! They for the fresh mint from their herbs out front! Only complaint was we prefer our espresso martinis to be mostly espresso heavy, and this one was more cream heavy. We ordered the Brussels, country breakfast (subbed cheese grits instead of pancakes because we're gluten free) and got a side of fresh fruit. It was so much food. We didn't finish it all! The grits were nicely seasoned and cheesy. Brussels were super crispy and not drenched in grease or sauce. Eggs were nice and salty, potatoes were fried nicely. Everything was great. We would love to come back for lunch or dinner - especially happy hour. It wasn't too loud and we felt there was plenty of seating.
