I am always looking for drive up coffee huts with good smoothies, and some other treats. When I am out & about with my toddler there are only so many times I can take him in & out of the car before meltdown mode is activated. We have a tradition of getting smoothies after his class each week. I never realized Java Hut had smoothies until I saw them posted on their social media so we had to give them a try. The baristas were all very friendly, and service was fast. The hut is currently very cutely decorated for Halloween. They have great monthly themed specials, and also a wide variety of drink and flavor options. Seems like the baristas here are very creative and can concoct whatever you come up with! We ordered a smoothie, and I got the October special frappe. My frappe was delicious, and had a good amount of cold brew in it. The smoothie was also very good, and my toddler enjoyed it. We also got a 3 pack of some very cute Halloween themed donuts from Red's Custom Baked Goods. Java Hut carries their donuts a few days week, and it looks like they also serve burritos from El Pastor. So you can support 3 different local ER businesses in one stop! Head on over to Java Hut for any of your caffeinated beverage needs while you're in Eagle River! read more
