In business since 1942, Leon’s Frozen Custard is a tried and true (and tasty) tradition for many Wisconsinites. Delicious food and delectable desserts are only half of the eatery’s appeal, though. The other half comes from its authentically retro vibe. It’s truly a blast from the past!

Located in Milwaukee, Leon’s Frozen Custard has been helping people break their diets since 1942.

Authentically retro, the drive-in’s appearance has barely changed since the 1950s when it was remodeled.

Its looks aren’t the only thing that’s remained unchanged throughout the decades, though. Since opening, Leon’s has been owned and operated by the same family.

The menu has also been a constant since the beginning.

Serving up a quintessential drive-in fare, the main focus of the menu is dessert, particularly frozen custard.

But Leon’s doesn’t serve just any frozen custard. It serves the “freshest and finest frozen custard available anywhere.” Even the sign says so.

Of course, it’s not just sweets on the menu. There are also hot dogs, chili dogs, and a Spanish hamburger, which is like a Sloppy Joe.
