    the Ultimate OREO® Sundae
    Tori B.

    I think The Yard is definitely something everyone should get at least once. It is pretty pricey on paper but the portions are huge and it's something you don't see everyday! It can get pretty crowded so sometimes tables can be sparse but when the weather is nice i've sat out on the curb before.

    Great ice cream, prices are what you would expect for a tourist trap. Horrendous service no wonder the lines always out door the staff is annoyed, on their own time, pissed off when you have a question. I've lived here for 25 years this is my second time going never again. Go to Bruster's your moneys worth it, it's family owned, and the staff are the sweetest kids.

    Talk about a food coma! My husband and I had an early, light dinner to save room for dessert. We came into The Yard around 8 pm on a weeknight and we were at first the only ones there. It gave us a chance to talk to the staff about the monthly specials. We saw them online but he didn't have prior knowledge of them in store. Since he had all of the ingredients, he was happy to make them for us. While making our shakes, a few more groups came in and ended up copying our shakes! They were as big and delicious as they look. They cost $18 each though. You do get to keep the glass; there is a washing station in the back. They have other options if you don't want a massive shake. Regular ice cream scoops are of course available. Everything was great, I would recommend!

    My kid is a true lover of ice cream, so he was very pleased with his milkshake. The place was very clean with very nice decor. However, the service was blah. Not too friendly, seemed like they were bothered we came in, the employee making the milkshake wasn't even friendly enough o let my son take a video of the process to make it.

    This milkshake is prob one of the best milkshakes I've ever had! I got the cookie dough and there was an insane amount of cookie dough inside the shake! I highly recommend! I'm sad I haven't come sooner. It's prob my biggest regret. They were playing like millennial hits when I went so there was a lot of nostalgia there as well. I love it and I'll def be back!

    The Yard Milkshake Bar is such a unique place, and when I saw it on Yelp I had to try it. Ok, this is not your typical ice cream joint. It's creating ice cream ART! Take a look at my pic of the menu, and some of the options comes with a take away glass mug which they have a trough to wash your glass after you have enjoyed your treat! It took three of us to take down the Brookie Batter. It was amazing! The bottom layer was filled with ice cream, cookie dough, then layered with whipped cream and chocolate chips. To finish it off there is a brownie and cookie to make the Brookie Batter complete. If you come across The Yard Milkshake Bar on vacation, road trip, or in our area you must try this ice cream adventure!!!

    Prices are absurd. Workers were not friendly at all. (8/1/25). A milkshake and two flavors in a jar ($34). In a tourist area. Oh well. At least get friendly workers. The shop is clean.

    Pineapple Upside Down Bowl
    Elle J.

    Stopped in here late on a Wednesday evening! It was crazy crowded, but the line moved at a decent pace. I was unsure what to order, but decided on the Pineapple Upside Down Bowl due to seeing it was the special for June, plus it looked yummy! After ordering we got our ticket and waited. They got the order out fast, but speed never trumps accuracy! The Pineapple Upside Down wasn't anything like the description mentioned. It was simply a pretty bowl with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, a scoop of cookie dough, and a pineapple and cherry for garnish. The description mentioned a pineapple drizzle and pineapple cake which were absent from mine. It was so crowded, I didn't even bother getting back in line to let them know. The ice cream was good just not what I expected from the description! As far as the workers, everyone I saw was working extremely hard. The only thing was they were working so hard there was little to no crowd interaction. No one greeting as customers walked in and I never noticed any of the workers smiling. I get it though, like I said, it was extremely crowded so maybe that led to the lack of customer service. Nonetheless, I'll more than likely give this place another try when we visit again.

    Banana split milkshake

    Loved the process. The service was great. Ambiance was good. I'd love to come back and get one of each option available.

    Nothing extremely special but a fun and clean place to have a good desert after a long day on the beach or hanging around. Many options, from super complicated to scoop in a cone or cup. Service is good, fairly quick. We have come the last two years during vacation. If we come again next year, it's tradition.

    Very very very good ice cream and the whole restaurant was crowded but the food made up for it

    Delicious and Fun deserts. This was the second time I visited the Yard. The first time I came in the heat of summer vacation and the line to order was 1 hour long and we left because we could wait that long for desert and with little kids. The second time I came, there was no line and we were able to order one desert that we split. The deserts are like artwork and so filling, it's definitely shareable. So glad we didn't have to wait this time around. Very low key with MANY options. Totally fun to eat for a special treat when visiting Destin, FL

    I give it a 3 because I don't like ice cream and high calorie deserts. LOL But my kids and husband do! It amazes me how they put these things together and the wait people will endure to get them. It's nice they have a couple of seats available outside and an area people can wash out their mason jars when finished. Those are a good keepsake! It's got a decent atmosphere and good music to listen to while you wait.

    Good but expensive. There's jars you could buy but we didn't get them. Cool options to get but very pricey.

    Every beach I must have dole whip and this place is now my go to for Destin. First it taste just…read morelike Disney, second they one upped the enjoying of dole whip pineapple to have strawberry flavor but even better you can have a swirl. Needless to say ive been visiting daily and my child refuses to share her cup. If you are a pineapple fan this is the place to visit. Also they do sell everything else from donuts, gelato, coffee but I've only tried the dole whip and love it so much I can't be distracted.

    We arrived in Florida yesterday... excited to do our routine, we settled in. Our first night we…read moreenjoyed dinner at a local place then headed to Cups and Cones for Gelato. MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE! But this time they had flavors such as blood orange, butter pecan, lemon and birthday cake. Well my favorite in gelato is Chocolate, so needless to say I was hesitant to choose. Seeing a large tub of sample spoons NEXT TO THE GELATO CASE, I asked if I could try a sample of birthday cake. An older gentleman waiting on us stated," I'm sorry we don't do that, those days are long gone..." I was shocked and over all VERY disappointed. i could not understand why the spoons are setting next to the case and why they didn't do samples? I didn't need a soup ladle full of gelato geeze, just enough to ensure I liked it. The entire dessert part of our evening was ruined... my husband didn't get anything I ended up settling for Pineapple dole whip simply because I KNEW I liked it. We will not return to this establishment. Best of luck to those who do.
