I don't know what all the negative reviews are all about because we enjoyed this place while in Destin and made multiple stops while visiting. First off you are in a tourist town so the prices are going to reflect that. It's amazing to me that people will pay $200+ a night for a hotel room and will walk over a mile to the beach because there isn't beach parking in Destin but find it ridiculous to pay $7.50 for frozen custard! I thought the prices were to be expected for this particular vacation spot. The junior sizes were perfect for kids so that was a bonus that they offer a size like that. My youngest is easy with a simple vanilla shake and the hubby enjoys chocolate. My oldest had the strawberry shortcake concrete and when I had a bite I immediately wished I had I ordered the same thing! It was delicious! I had the strawberry shake and I liked that it didn't have an overpowering flavor of strawberry. We went during the day as well as the evening and we were able to find parking each time we visited. Even though it was crowded each time we received our orders promptly and the service was very good. There aren't many frozen custard places in Texas where we are from so this was a real treat. The whole family got a kick out of the bottles of water we purchased! They are shaped like a champagne bottle and we all thought it was very cute! It's too bad so many people give this place a bad reputation because they spent all their money on their accommodations and forgot to budget money for food and activities. We will make this a must visit for future Destin trips!
Shake's makes the best sundaes, shakes, banana splits, anything with custard in it! I love the Bopper, my daughter loves the tutti-fruity banana split. A little pricey, but do it while on vacation.
You'll want to visit Shakes early in your vacation, because you'll surely want to come back. Great treat for dessert or to just beat the heat. Milkshakes are A+.
Great little frozen custard stand. Fast service. Didn't know they had hot dogs too, we just went on a last minute late night ice cream run, but maybe next time. Hit the spot. Right next to a Waffle House. Sits back from the road a little so keep your eyes open for it. Pokemon stop for the littles, too ;)
