Buffalo’s Incredible Milkshake Bar Is What Dreams Are Made Of
Kelis’ milkshake might bring all the boys to the yard, but this milkshake bar is bringing ice cream lovers straight to Buffalo – which, we would argue, is way better. There are several great ice cream spots to check out in the 716, but if you have to pick just one, we recommend getting your freak on at this incredible milkshake bar!
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
You'll find Buffalo's best milkshakes at 1488 Hertel Avenue.
Dubbed as "Freak Shakes," this Buffalo milkshake bar serves up the most amazing milkshakes. Each shake comes in its own giant mug, garnished with a mountain toppings (and requiring at least a small stack of napkins).
Live every day like it's your birthday with the "Cake" Freak Shake: Vanilla ice cream with rainbow sprinkles, chocolate sauce, whipped cream, and a cupcake on top! It's a sugar overload in the best possible way.
(Sorry for the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse reference, we couldn't help ourselves.) One of the most popular Freak Shakes at Hertel Ave Poutine & Cream is "The Chocolate Mouse." Peanut butter lovers go nuts (pun intended) for this peanut butter-chocolate ice cream with Reese's Pieces and peanut butter cups on top, drizzled with chocolate and caramel sauce. Sign me up!
Along with their Freak Shakes, this Buffalo milkshake bar also serves up traditional shakes and ice cream cones with plenty of topics to choose from. You can create your own frozen masterpiece!
Creamy WHATS? Creamy Buns are like donut paninis with ice cream in the center, and there are tons of flavors to try! The most unique is probably the "Breakfast" Creamy Bun: vanilla ice cream with Captain Crunch cereal!
At Hertel Ave Poutine and Cream, the answer to the age-old question should always be a resounding, "YES!" Their poutine is half of the restaurant's namesake, after all.
This Buffalo milkshake bar is open Monday through Saturday from 11:30AM to midnight, and Sundays from 11:30 AM to 11 PM. We’re already making plans to get our hands on the “Cookie Monster.”
