AMAZING!!! Dairy, non dairy, coffee shakes ...options for everyone! These are NOT normal milkshakes. Each is made to order and HUGE! Cups are 16oz and they load them up and then top them with all kinds of deliciousness! Like the cookie batter comes with half a huge ice cream cookie sandwich and a quarter chocolate bar on top! My favorite is the Project Seed coffee with the non dairy OATMILK "icecream". Delicious and nice to my insides! read more

I was in Seldon Market and noticed this cute little ice cream shop. They had a pretty wall mural and all sorts of popping colors. I had never been here so i was looking to see what they had. They have ice cream, milk shakes, cookies, and cupcakes. This is one of those fun places with the deliciously cool looking milk shakes stacked with cookies, brownies, and more!! I got a confetti cookie for $2.50 just to try something. I wanted a milkshake but i was full after trying other goodies in the market. But I'll be back to try it for sure. The cookie was good and soft. It tasted fresh. I am sure I'll find something else that taste good when i come back. Stop by and give them a try.. read more

I remember my first encounter with @shakeitup.shakes like it was yesterday. My cousin @savvythriftnista convinced my sister @fashionablybright and I to drive over the bridge from Chesapeake to Hampton to get a taste of this deliciousness. @shakeitup.shakes had a food truck at the time; we pulled up to a residential neighborhood and jumped out of our car hoping they hadn't sold out for the day. @shakeitup.shakes did not disappoint they still had cotton candy available and served me up one of the best milkshakes in the #757! When @yelpcoastalva let the #YelpElite squad know we would have an opportunity to visit their new storefront @seldenmarket I was so excited. They provide great customer service, the shakes are so good and big enough for two people to share one. I'm so proud of how far this local business has come. All of their hard work has paid off! I encourage everyone to check them out. The cotton candy milkshake is perfect for the little ones and I recommend the butter pecan milkshake for old school adults (seniors) with a sweet tooth! read more

Traveling dessert truck, finally "Shake'n" after months of stalking Instagram for a public pop up close to us. Verdict? 4-4.5 stars! Uniquely composed gourmet shakes, unseen anywhere else in the 757, artisan made by a minority owned local business. A tad pricey for a family of 6; bought 3 shakes served in mid-size clear solo cups for $36+tip, most with more whipped cream than true "shake." Rainy Friday evening made for virtually no line to order. Perfect for our first visit! Employees were friendly. Descriptive menu (black background, see photo) was posted AFTER we ordered; made the best of the picture menu, though felt bad asking "what's in the _______?" Paid/tipped easily via credit card POS system. Received an order number receipt; items in hand ~8-10 minutes later. Crazy cookie (5/5): HOMERUN!! A must order!! Outside cup rim had a thin vanilla frosting layer coated in Oreo cookie crumble. Inside, a straw helped to sip vanilla/choc cookie shake topped with whipped cream and chocolate syrup; spoon also inserted to better manage the half chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich AND cookies and cream candy bar wedge. Every sip (and bite) was cavity inducing sweet, just the way a uniquely crafted ice cream dessert should be. Found the inside composition to be heavier on whipped cream than ice cream/shake. Banana split (4/5): Yummy! Their take on a Banana split'ish, in a cup. Outside rim had a thin vanilla frosting layer coated in choc sprinkles. Inside, a straw helped to sip vanilla/banana blended shake topped with whipped cream, choc syrup, and cherry; spoon also inserted to better manage the half ice cream sandwich and (fully wrapped) foot long piece of banana laffy taffy. Oldest son has a dessert stomach, devoured it like a professional. Blondie (3.5/5): Pretty good. Outside cup rim had a thin vanilla frosting layer coated in white chocolate pieces. Inside, a straw helped to sip vanilla shake topped with whipped cream and pecans coated in caramel syrup; spoon inserted to better manage the 2 triangular pieces of blondie bar. Also sweet and heavier on whipped cream than ice cream/shake. Would prob get something different on a revisit. read more

I was dying to try a Shake It Up Shake. The concept is similar to the Shake Shack. The best part of the Shake is the toppings. Shack It Up are creative with their toppings. I ordered the cookie shake. It came with a healthy topping of a cookie ice cream sandwich, white chocolate candy bar, Oreo cookie and whip cream. I waited in line for 2 hours to get this Shake and It was worth it (although I wouldn't wait 2 hours ever again). read more

I tried them for the first time today & it was everything I'd thought it would be! I LOVE milkshakes & they rank #1 in my book! I had an ice cream cookie sandwich, white chocolate Hershey bar, Oreos, chocolate syrup & whip cream ALL topped on my shake! Not to mention the cream & cookies on the inside & outside! They have great milkshake options, & vegan choices! You can also just get ice cream if you want! Follow them on IG: @shakeitup.shakes to find out where they will be next! No matter how far they are from you, it's worth the drive! Just make sure you get there early though lol There will most likely be a wait but just be patient! read more

I purchased the original coldbrew milkshake. It tasted good but I felt like it was lacking in a coffee flavor. It also looked very vanilla/white compared to the advertised photos. For $8 I feel like the price is comparable to other milkshakes but still felt pricey. I wish I purchased the smaller one as it became too much for me about halfway through. I would try again. read more

I've been following Shake It Up on Instagram for a few weeks and finally decided to check them out. It was a rainy day but they still sold shakes until they sold out. I ordered the birthday bash (cake batter shake topped with whipped cream, sprinkles, funfetti cupcake, and rock candy on a stick) and my friend had some kind of vanilla shake topped with a chocolate chip ice cream sandwich and cookies and cream bar. After waiting in line for over an hour we finally got our shakes. I was able to get one sip in before everything started dripping and spilling. This was so messy to eat that I wound up tossing it. From what I could taste it was okay; definitely not worth the mess or wait. read more
