Elwood's Drive Thru
847 E Palmer-Wasilla Hwy, Eagle River, AK
Crema's Take
“Elwood's Drive Thru has quietly become Eagle River's go-to spot for quality beyond the typical drive-thru fare, featuring standout Buddha bowls packed with fresh proteins and vegetables alongside excellent Kaladi Brothers coffee and thoughtfully crafted drinks. The team clearly cares about getting things right—they've even reached out to customers who've had issues—and locals keep coming back raving about the hard-to-choose-between options, from affogatos to breakfast sandwiches, all served with genuine friendliness even when you're just rolling through the drive-thru window. It's the kind of place that makes a quick coffee run feel like discovering something special.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. Quick-grab spot. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available. Drive-thru.
