Veryyy nice workers , very nice man with the glasses and dark hair(fletcher)! They took our order of 4 milkshakes even 10 minutes before closing. I got the banana milkshake and it was pretty solid, also our total was 13$ which doesn't seem too bad. 3.5-4 read more

We pulled up 10 minutes before they closed and they were still pleasant and happy to help us. The chocolate shake was delicious. The vanilla cups were tasty. The building has an old fashioned feel of days gone by. We want to return and try a burger there. Funny side note: the malt shop didn't have malt to make me a chocolate malt. read more

They need to inform new customers about the order on the left and pickup on the right. Owner that was working just let me stand their while he discussed other owner being on vacation with customer. read more

The service was top notch! You got the old malt shop feeling and I half expected Archie and Jughead to come around the corner, very fun spot. Food is fresh and quite good. It's a must visit. read more

There is a very good reason why this Malt Shop has been around for so many years, it's delicious! On our visit on a particularly hot hot and humid day this ice cream is exactly what we needed to cool down. We were only in town for a short while but my husband, a Natchez native, raves about his childhood memories of coming to the Malt Shop as a special treat. Although we did not order any sustenance from the food menu I totally believe that it is just as good. read more

Great service really fast my milk shake was amazing they have a pretty good selection of flavors it reminds you of those little shops from the older days read more

Did not eat here because the person began to take my order and then suddenly picked up the phone to take a To go order. When I questioned why she was rude, then she told me I was not ready to order. How can someone be so ignorant as to not realize we were in the middle of a conversation. I immediately called all my peeps from the balloon festival to tell them not to bother with this place. I am disabled and I'm sorry if I talk too slow for you to wait for me to speak. RUDE read more

Ordered Hamburger Steak Plate. Was awful. The gravey was apparently poured out of a off brand can. The meat unseasoned. Not edible. Granddaughter got a hamburger and she said it was not good. Their milkshakes are great though. read more

Excellent service with a slight wait (10 or so minutes). Workers were very friendly. Fries are ok. Onion rings are awesome! Burgers come dressed with Mayo, lettuce, tomato and pickles- they are decent. Strawberry shake was good and has real strawberries in it. Would definitely try again and recommend to others. read more

Blast from the past! Husband & I enjoyed delicious fully dressed cheeseburgers, hot French fries & decadent chocolate malts! Food prepared fresh while we had fun adding our names to decades old picnic table. Staff very friendly too! Highly recommend to others! read more

The Malt Shop - Fully dressed cheeseburger, fries & jumbo chocolate malt - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Natchez, Mississippi

Got the hot sundae. It was great!! The hot fudge melted some of the ice cream but it was good. The ice cream itself was very creamy and delicious. Service was good. No long waits. You can walk up and order your food or they have a drive thru. Next time I want to try one of there shakes. Definitely will be coming back! read more

Slow service and long lines. No real direction as to what side you should order from or pickup. I watched a manager/owner(?) close the window, making the lines even longer, so he could count money. After waiting more than 20 minutes for a banana malt with real bananas (up-charge), I was handed my super sweet banana milkshake. No malt added whatsoever! Very disappointing. Avoid the tourist trap. read more

Nice friendly folks. Quick service. Milkshakes was short on flavor of butterscotch malt , thin/runny and very cold,good. I know orders can get mixed up. Hburger was ok but my hot dog with chili and cheese was a spicy, mystery meat. That cost $5 instead of $2 50. We could have had a better meal for nearly $20. Nobody died or got sick. Chalk it up to it was hot and we didn't check our order. God bless you folks. read more

Delicious shakes. Hamburgers are small but good! The fact you can drive thru is awesome.

We've been coming to the Malt Shop for over 20 years, we've tried EVERYTHING on the menu. It's a must (and a family tradition to roll into town and grab a bite from here!). Our Faves: Jumbo Cheeseburger w/Cajun Fries Fried Catfish Plate Cheeseburger Plate Pork Chop Sandwhich Chicken Wing Plate Chocolate Malt with Extra Whip Banana Spit with Nuts Shrimp Poboy Chicken Poboy Catfish Poboy w/Regular french fries Okay and their french fries are REALLY TASTY! Try dipping it in mayo, a mayo and ketchup, or mayo and hot sauce combo...I know it sounds weird, but someone in line told me to try it...and i only eat the fries from the malt shop this way! I don't know what they fry or season their grease with....but it's the best fries I've had! Crunchy and fresh! Can't go wrong with anything on the menu! read more

This place is really cool and old school; it felt like a time capsule from the 1950s. I came here twice during my stay, as I can't resist a burger! The first time I did the drive through and then waited in my car for the order. The second time I called ahead, which I would recommend, so you don't have to wait. I got the regular burger the first time, but upgraded to the larger one the second time; the regular one is pretty small, specifically the amount of patty that is in it. The Cajun curly fries can't be beat! I also tried a chocolate milk shake and a chocolate malt- both were delicious. read more

I have not really tried their food but as far as their chocolate shakes....they are best around town. Can be a bit pricey but they are well worth it! read more

Another fantastic, locally owned business in Natchez. I ordered the large catfish basket and got way too much food for my money, ie it was a great deal. Plus, and this is also worth noting, it was fantastic. My wife ordered a hamburger and liked it. We came back later and ordered hot fudge sundaes and they were great. Friendly staff, friendly customers and a great location. This is worth your time. read more

After looking at the reviews we decided to give this place a try. The Butterscotch Malt was so good!!! I haven't had an old fashioned malt in many years. We are already planning our next stop there. Thankfully we are just an hour away. read more

This Natchez institution is under new ownership. Unfortunately they changed their French Fries and I do not like them. At all!

I'm in Heaven!! It's not easy finding old fashioned ice cream shops since many towns are replaced with Braum's and other chain ice cream stores these days. Finding this original ice cream and burger joint was one of the best parts of my trip to Natchez. THE BUTTERSCOTCH MALT IS AMAZING! You have the option to add chopped pecans and wow...it's a must! I wish I could get this close to home, it was the best malt ever. The Malt Shop has a very extensive food menu, not just burgers and fries. Everything is super inexpensive. I had the BLT and fries- very good! Everyone else in my group got a burger and loved it. It's a small A-framed building with a walk-up window, so don't expect to go inside and sit down. There is one picnic table in front that will seat 7-8 people on each side, but that's it. It has a drive-thru as well, but they cook to order, so you probably want to call ahead. A must if you're visiting or live in the town! Can't beat the prices or the taste for this kind of place! read more

What a classic. I don't know when this place first opened but it looks like the Fonz could have visited here. We had a root beer float, hot fudge Sunday, chocolate malt and a banana split. What a treat. It was the perfect ending to a perfect day. While we were there, a couple with their children were having what looked like fried catfish and French fries. Had we not just finished dinner I would have loved to try it. read more

Best burger in Natchez.... and their shakes are really good too. The burger was home style thick and juicy

Me and my dad went here one day the fries was fresh and the ice cream was perfect it was the best experience ever

Rude and obnoxious. Difficult menu to order from. Difficult system for receiving your order. Never again for me.

$2 shakes! Amazing little off the road malt shop. They vanilla shake was enough to make me give it 4 stars! If you make a great vanilla shake the rest has to be good if not better. The staff were helpful and funny. I will definitely be returning when I am in the area again. read more

Passed through while traveling and found this little hidden gem. The Malt Shop has tasty fresh food and a friendly staff, not to mention their malts are delicious. read more

Super good burgers. So good we came back the next day for another. First day the young lady was super sweet and friendly. Next day the other lady with long brown braid was so unfriendly and borderline rude. Oh well, at least the food is yummy. This is an old fashioned place and I'd love to try everything else but no time since we're from out of town. read more

This is my absolute favorite place to eat in Natchez. Love the burgers. After I pick my cheeseburger plate up I always find a nice place around town to sit and eat my lunch. The bluff is my normal go to. read more

If you are looking to sit down inside don't come here. Seating is limited to one picnic table. They do a steady take out business. It's rare you find malts on the menu these days. Nothing fancy to making a malt. Just add a spoonful of malted milk powder to a shake and wah lah. I like them. I had a couple of chili dogs for lunch. They were simple things. Well put together but nothing too fancy. The weenie had never been to New York City. The chili had never been to Texas. The bun was off the bottom shelf of the Piggly Wiggly. The onions were cold crisp fresh chopped Bermuda's. You could eat one in three bites outta one hand while riding a bicycle. The meaty chili held the onions tight and rode the weenie well. The place wasn't spic n span clean but the chili dog tasted fine and whenever that sweet heat would crawl up the back of your throat the creamy cold malted would ease the pain and soothe the senses. The fried po boys and shrimp plates looked good. Prices are reasonable. Don't come in here all liquored up and expect to eat. It's not that kind of place. read more

*Writing in response to Gloria's comment* Gloria, I appreciate that you monitor Yelp and further appreciate you responding to my comment. Just to cite one experience in particular, however -- I walked up to the window to place my order. Your employee never bothered to look up from the order form to acknowledge me. Further, her demeanor was nonchalant and her comments were fairly terse. Neither did she show any appreciation for me doing business there. In a climate where there are a) plenty of options for purchasing food and b) where customer service is the new marketing, that's patently unacceptable. Also, not accepting credit cards in an era where platforms like Square make doing very affordable seems incongruous and out of step with the times. There's plenty of evidence to support the fact that accepting cards will increase average order value and, in my case, would mean that I visit with greater frequency (I NEVER carry cash; who does anymore?). If it's part of The Malt Shop's "schtick," I get that. But from a purely retail perspective, enforcing a high standard of customer service among your employees and accepting common forms of payment just makes sense. Please understand -- my motive for sharing what may appear to be a harsh critique is not to besmirch the Malt Shop. Rather, it's because I appreciate local small businesses and desire to be loyal to them. When given the option, I'd much prefer buying from you than a chain outfit. I know you've been in business for years and are well-loved in this community. Not having my business won't make a dent in your bottom line. But I want Natchez and the local businesses that make it up to succeed and thrive. I trust you understand. If I didn't care, I wouldn't be writing this tome. Paul read more

40 minutes for burgers and fries and still got the order wrong. Bypass. I mean, it's quaint, in the back of a cool old neighborhood, locals from all walks of life coming up to the window, but they must know some secret to getting food out of them. PLUS - incidental - they woman at the window was acting impatient with a mentally handicapped woman trying to order a catfish plate. When she was .50 short, I handed over a dollar and they kept the change. Jeez... read more

Very disappointing experience today. Been a customer for years. Ordered a vanilla shake, what I got was vanilla ice cream that was whipped a little. It was good ice cream, but a shake is different. I guess the Malt Shop is just another tradition that is gone. read more

Little shop... great food: burger, shake, coke and fries and a lot of markes on the table. We enjoyed it! We are on vacation... greetings from Germany read more

It's soft serve, not ice cream. Malt is the same as the milk shake, here. They listed several ice cream flavors and possibly chocolate is only available in soft serve... read more

The Malt Shop in Natchez MS is something my family and I look forward to each time we visit the area. Which is about 3 times a year. It's like you are stepping back in time when you pull up to this place . My favorite is the Butterscotch Malt. When you receive your Malt (no matter how hot it is outside) you can taste the ice crystals in it. I can't wait until out next trip to Natchez and the Malt Shop here. read more

We always stop here while we're in town for a shake and have never been disappointed! The service is slow but we don't mind - just plan on waiting when you come. read more

Stopped here while touring Natchez based on suggestion by tour guide. Food took a long time and portions were small. Burgers were tasty but small. Ice cream was nothing special. Would pass up on going here again. read more

The shakes are great. Ham sandwich is not so great. The place has a good location. The staff was friendly and helpful with my questions. I will definitely go back! read more

Husband ordered a beef sandwich, loaded with sauce and about 1/2 hour after eating it he got sick. do not need to write the gruesome details, he was ok after 36 hrs... ....but when I called to tell the manager thinking she may want to know, her response was,"Well there is a flu or virus going around". We are not idiots, we know the difference of the symptoms and the flu or a virus would not have come on so suddenly after eating and leave with in 36 hours. I got a malt shake which was fine, so we knew it was the meat sandwich. Shame on them for their poor response and for not handling the food properly, whether it was in the storage, cooking or in making the sandwich, he clearly had food poisoning!!!! read more
