Ferch's Malt Shoppe had a longtime location in Greendale that was pretty great. It served some wonderful food in a classic setting. While that location is no more, it had another shop up its sleeve.

Ferch’s Beachside Grille is located right on Grant Park Beach in South Milwaukee. You can enjoy Ferch’s delicious custard, and on hot days you can cool off in Lake Michigan and if you need to, head back to the shop for some more cool custard!

The shop has some of the best custard around and has boasted that it has a million different flavors. We’ll take their word for it, but the menu has a lot of tempting options for custard lovers, including malts, shakes sundaes, root beer floats and cones.
