The Story

Ely sits on US-50, and Economy Drug has kept its old-fashioned fountain running there for over a century — malts and sundaes in a working pharmacy, hours from anywhere.

    Very polite helpful drugist. And really good food and ice cream. And he gave me ice for my wrist and help me put the wristband on.

    Eating area was clean. It was pretty busy and they struggled to keep up. I had to take half my food to go because they wer backed up on the icecream. The milkshake was tasty though a bit too runny for my taste. My sandwich was pretty dry and the meat tasted super processed. The workers were very nice which is why they get the 5 stars

    Just like the ice cream parlors in drugstores of my childhood. Delicious ice cream sundies and wonderful sandwiches. If you're driving through or near Ely, Nevada, you need to make a stop here. It's very popular and busy, but so worth it!
