Had to call a few times to actually get someone on the phone---but totally worth it! Had the #2 chocolate with chocolate crème frosting with chocolate chips in between the layers. Super light and not too sweet. Oreos decorated the top with chocolate ganache drizzled over the edges. The cake box was very high-end and tied with pretty ribbon. Miss Sugar provided the cutest set of plastic cutlery and paper serving plates with the cake. Will definitely order again if in the Purdue U area.

The toppings were pretty good and we got a good size yogurt for $7 each. I do prefer yogurt ice cream over regular milk and eggs with heavy cream style. Just a personal preference.

Budges Drive-In Ice Cream in Lafayette is a true local legend, drawing massive lines with good…read morereason. Their soft serve ice cream is nothing short of amazing, and the fresh, cooked-to-order hamburgers are a perfect savory counterpart; the barbecue burger, in particular, is an absolute must-try. My wife raves about their frozen treats, expertly blending soft serve with cookie dough and M&M's. It's clear this place is a gem when both loyal locals and curious tourists consistently flock here. The building itself, an iconic fixture in Lafayette since the 1960s, holds a rich history as one of the area's first drive-ins, adding an extra layer of nostalgia to every delicious bite. Despite the consistently long wait of about 15 minutes, the efficient service, rated 8/10, keeps things moving, ensuring you get your treats swiftly. Parking is surprisingly easy, a huge plus for a popular spot. While the energetic atmosphere (9/10) is undeniable, it's worth noting that Budges doesn't cater specifically to young children, lacking highchairs and perhaps better suited for older kids or adults looking for a classic drive-in experience. I will be back!

Super old school and straight forward…read more Our family of four were returning from our Indianapolis-Cincinnati road trip and made a pit stop here for a quick snack before continuing to Chicago. It was incredibly hot outside so we opted to enjoy our frozen custard in our car. We had the twisted chocolate and vanilla in regular and the chocolate in small. For those traveling with young children, it is good to note that there is a very nice park and playground minutes away. We didn't get a chance to check it out since it was getting late and we had another +1 hour drive home. But I bookmarked it for the next time we're in the area - Columbian Park SIA Playground.

If you find yourself in Lafayette, Indiana this place is worth the visit. It's a city treasure.

The drive through is super convenient. My go to order is vanilla custard with marshmallow, strawberries, whip cream and pecans. I also love to order a marshmallow Coke; I know that sounds like an odd combination but it's my favorite. Their marshmallow sauce is the perfect consistency. Another favorite staple is their fruit drink.
