I ordered a "Brookie Batter" and it was really good, but to be honest, it was too much dessert at once. I would have preferred to eat it in a bigger bowl where you could have mixed the cookie, brownie, ice cream, cookie dough, etc. better. I don't think I'd order one just for myself again. read more

The Yard Milkshake Bar - Brookie Batter - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Madison, Alabama

This was my second time visiting this location. As you can imagine, if you are in a hurry, please head to another ice cream shop because it does take awhile for them to make the delicious treats. Thankfully, the line wasn't as long as my first visit. I do wish the workers were a little more "present" when greeting/speaking. They were quiet as a mouse. Nonetheless, we thoroughly enjoyed the Salted Caramel Cheesecake. read more

100% must hit spot. ESPECIALLY if allergies are an issue. I'm vegan and they took my dairy free ice cream to a special allergen free blender to whip up my shake. The staff were super kind as well, and I really liked all the vibes in the shop. read more

Staff was young and customer service was absent. No one greeted me or the people who came after. Fend for yourself when trying to find a menu or read a description. The proportions were off in the mixture and I was not as impressed as I was before at a previous location. read more

The Yard Milkshake Bar - Cookie Monster combo (added edible cookie dough in ice cream) - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Madison, Alabama

Absolutely delicious! This ice cream shop is a gem! The flavors are rich, creative, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. You can really taste the difference. The staff is super friendly and patient. The shop itself is clean. Highly recommend trying this place out. We'll definitely be coming back! There are also multiple locations across the country!! read more

This is a milkshake BAR OK! This was our first time coming and I was a tad overwhelmed because I honestly didn't want one of those crazy specialities (ikr why would you come here and NOT get one) well I'll explain. I just love a great milkshake and the staff explained that they could add for us all the toppings if we wanted but without getting the epic specialities. I love the fact that you can mix and match any base of ice cream that you want up to 3 for a milkshake and then blend the toppings of your choice without the crazy design. It's crazy delicious and if you're like me and can't justify the ridiculous looking ones, just make yourself a simpler version for yourself to enjoy and take a seat since the place is pretty nice too. read more

We went on a Saturday night and it was pretty busy. But the staff were very helpful. My daughter has food allergies so when I mentioned it, they made sure to switch gloves and use a different scoop for her ice cream. Then my three year old son dropped his ice cream and was crying and one of the staff was so kind and got him another one and gave him an extra scoop too! read more

The Yard Milkshake Bar - Strawberry ice cream cone with sprinkles, blue monster ice cream cone and chocolate ice cream cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Madison, Alabama

My husband and I took the grandkids to the milkshake bar as a special treat. The server was so sweet and was very patient while we were trying to make selections for them. They even have non dairy options. The cookies and cream ice cream is delicious. My husband got the Donut touch my coffee and cream bowl. There was a donut on top, so he had to share with the family. The kids gave it two thumbs up! read more

Bought a gift card from The Yard in Huntsville, Al and they did not honor the card because they changed software systems. Recommendation was to drive to Birmingham to get my ice cream. read more

For the novelty of it all...4 stars but sadly in reality I can only give 3 stars because the product does not justify the price and it's not as advertised. We came in and ordered 3 milkshakes. I ordered an original banana split milkshake with a cheesecake. I was disappointed that they just replaced the banana in its entirety. I thought it would have had bananas in the actual shake but there was just half melted ice cream in the container and a piece of cheesecake that was so frozen I actually couldn't eat through it with my "shake". We all found our "shakes" to be just melted ice cream...no actually blended shake. Overall, I'm glad I got to try it but I doubt I would be back and I definitely wouldn't recommend to anyone who isn't just on vacation. read more

Wife got a chocolate, brownie milkshake. Nothing crazy. The milkshake was delicious but nothing special. Lots of flavors to choose from. Priced high, I assume because of location and experience. Several kids working and half of them goofing off. I didn't like that. Wait until customers are serviced and gone. Lots to choose from. Plenty of seating if you include outside which makes for good atmosphere. We'll come again if we want ice cream in this area. We'll expect to pay. Can find cheaper milkshakes, just as good, in town read more

I was disappointed in our first experience at The Yard. There were 3 young adults working behind the counter, and not one greeted us. They just looked at us until we were the ones to say hello and tell them what we wanted. If I'm spending $18 for a milkshake, I expect an experience and good customer service. The counters were messy, shelves were disorganized, bathroom dirty. Napkins were not stocked, tables and counters were dirty as well. This was at roughly 5:30pm. There needs to be employees here that make the most of their jobs; these made the experience almost miserable. The milkshake itself was the consistency of, well, milk. Really no texture other than the added ingredients. I received it on a paper plate and milk running down every side. Flavor was good and the milkshake was fun, but the mess and service really dampend the experience... read more

So I will say that the bowls, milkshakes and Sundays are each a little bit pricey, however, they taste great, and I are unique novel experience that includes being a little work of art. Great little outing read more

They have our money but we did not receive our milkshake! The Yard Milkshake Bar in Madison has changed their payment software. They will not honor gift cards purchased at the store. We will never visit them again. It is not our fault they changed software. We paid for the card at their store and it should be honored. That is stealing! Give us the product or give us the money back we used to purchase the gift card. read more

Mismanaged. Personnel working here need training on what is customer service. Being ignored as the only two people in line for 15 minutes is a sign of mismanaged place operated by people who do not understand why the place is open. If you see milk and other items used taken from unrefrigerated locations, leave. About a half gallon of milk was sitting out longer than the 15 minutes that we ignored. read more

The prices are absolutely ridiculous. I paid almost $20 for a milkshake that wasn't even that good. Will never return here. It did have a pretty presentation or I would have given it a single star. read more

The Yard Milkshake Bar - A Rip Off - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Madison, Alabama

We went because we heard about it from a friend, we really enjoyed this place. The inside was very nice and the employees were friendly. I got the cookies and milk milkshake, i really liked it. The stuff on top like the whip cream and chocolate chips and the cookie sandwich were good, the Cookie Crisp pieces were ok. The shake itself had a nice milky flavor. I don't think I would get this again, but I'm glad I tried it. If you're thinking about going to this place, I say check it out. read more

The Yard Milkshake Bar - Milk and cookies milkshake - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Madison, Alabama

Love it! This was my first visit to the Huntsville location at last!!! My husband decided to split a milkshake because we've made the mistake of getting our own in the past. We got the mint chocolate chip one. It came with a huge brownie and of course the souvenir glass. We ate every crumb and drank every drop. Only downside is this location doesn't have a lace to wash out the glasses like other locations do. They also don't seem to clean the outside tables. read more

If you havent tried this sugar coma, you must! Being right next to the Trash Pandas is a bonus! Worth the trip!

had 2 dr. gonzo burgers they was super good I ask for lettuce and tomatoes they told me they didn't have any no big deal burger actually was better I think without it also had 2 fried Oreos and a peach beer the beer was a lil expensive but never the less over all a great experience but if you don't like loud music this isn't the spot for you read more

Mediocre ice cream and the bowl was WAY too small. Not worth the price, you're better off buying ice cream and baked goods at the grocery store. read more

The Yard Milkshake Bar - Peanut butter brownie bliss - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Madison, Alabama

It's in a new subdivision which is called Town of Madison. In front of the "trash panda" stadium. It's outrageously over priced and over sized. If you're trying to be healthy-- I wouldn't recommend coming here. They have ice cream as well and a multitude of flavors including vegan options. There's space to sit outside. The servers are polite but seem over worked and there's not enough trash cans/no recycle bins in the facility. It's a bit of a wait too for the milkshake. read more

The Yard Milkshake Bar - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Madison, Alabama

Awesome specialty milkshake and sundae creations. Great banana pudding ice cream. What you get looks just like the picture. They have lots of unique combinations that all look good. Service was good for being so busy but this isn't a fast food place. Expect to wait a little unless you go at an off time. read more

The Yard Milkshake Bar - S'MORES Specialty Shake and Sundae - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Madison, Alabama

We decided to take the kids to The Yard Milkshake Bar after school last Thursday. I liked the layout, decor, and location. I couldn't bring myself to pay $15 for a milkshake, but I wanted the kids (and, let's be honest, myself) to get the experience...so I opted to indulge in the $10 specialty bowls. While they were amazing to look at (and while the treats on top were all fantastic), the ice cream actually had plenty of room for improvement. Handel's ice cream is SIGNIFICANTLY better in both taste and texture. My fiancé told me this is because this ice cream was meant to be enjoyed as a milkshake. The Yard will get $15 out of me one day in the future before I make up my mind for good! One thing I have to add: the fruity pebbles treat on The Cereal Killer is perhaps one of the best sugar treats I have ever consumed. It could stand alone. These should be sold as a solo packaged treat on a small kiosk beside the cashier... read more

Great place to get a fancy milk shake or some flavorful iced cream. We came to try the milkshakes and they did not disappoint. Milkshakes were great and the toppings on top of the jar was awesome. All of us really enjoyed our shakes and they looked great. Friendly staff and clean place. read more

I stood there for 5 minutes at the counter because I was evidently supposed to stand in one particular place for the three women who looked at me and walked away to know that I wanted to order. The ice cream is OK. The help evidently has no social skills at all. No one else was waiting. The floors are filthy, after just opening. 15 minutes to get one item from the time of ordering , with no one else ahead of me. read more

It was good but just so overpriced. We got a mermaid milkshake and a chocolate chunk oatmilk shake. And it was over $25. There was also about a 15 minute wait after ordering and look busier when we left. The mermaid was cute but messy and way more than a kid can drink. I do appreciate that they have 2 lactose free options. If you get the fancy milkshake it comes in a mason jar which you keep, they have a sink for rinsing before you leave. If you bring it back you get a couple dollars off. read more

My niece and nephew enjoyed their treats. However, I was disappointed that when we walked into the establishment we was not greeted. The young lady was not wearing a hair net and unfortunately in my Oreo bowl her hair was in it. A young gentleman threw it away and made me a fresh one. I wish the owner will work with their staff and teach them good customer service and also enforce that all employees wear a hairnet. read more

So thankful the yard has come to my hometown!! I always look forward to the beach but now it's just right down the road. The monthly special are my favorite. The lemon ice box pie was yo die for. Always a loyal to the mermaid and the unicorn. read more

The Yard Milkshake Bar - Lemon ice box July was the best month so sad I only got it once - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Madison, Alabama

Very pricy for some normal ice cream. They drown it in whipped cream. Very cool for looks and pictures but the taste isn't all that.

A whooooole lot of sugar so be prepared!!! This place is delicious and a sweet tooth's heaven. Try the edible cookie dough (soooo freaking good). I wasn't really a fan of the big slice of cheesecake on mine, but the rest of the huge shake was good. Be sure to share! read more

I got the vegan and lactose friendly option and it was delicious. Even the whipped topping on top was vegan and lactose free. Everything ordered was delicious but our only issue was the wait time to get our orders in and how long it took to get orders to us. 45 mins just to order and another hour plus to get our ice cream. If you plan on coming here make sure to get there when the store first opens to avoid a line read more

The Yard Milkshake Bar - Not milk cup - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Madison, Alabama

This is the second time we've visited the Yard. The first time was subpar it was an over priced shake with a frozen cheesecake on it that you couldn't eat. Today we waited for 20+ minutes. The family of 7 in front of me and the couple behind me left, tired of the wait I suppose. No one greets you when you come in or apologizes for the wait when it's finally time to order. They moved very slow, they looked lost and confused. I don't know where the manger was but no one was clearly in charge. This place was dirty, no napkins and almost out of spoons. The Yard really needs to step it up. read more

My work team came here for an outing today. The service was speedy, as there were not many other people at the time we came. Atmosphere was nice. The business was a little cramped inside. The milkshake was tasty! I got the peaches and cream milkshake. I definitely wouldn't come here for my everyday ice cream fix. However, for a special little ice cream outing, it is a nice change of pace. Prices are steep. read more

Great selection and very clean. Didn't take as long to get as I thought it would. Super sweet staff too. But the place is a little small

Went in on Sunday evening and waited for 20+ minutes for 2 scoops of ice cream and a bowl. Staff wasn't friendly and no sense of urgency or enthusiasm. Dirty tables. Got the Cookies and Cream worm bowl but they made it with vanilla ice cream which was a bummer. $12 for vanilla ice cream, whipped cream and cookie crumbles it's a novelty shop for sure but one and done for us. read more

I thought this place seems like a really great idea. I think the milkshake was decent. My biggest complaint is the actual shake itself is small. While there are all the extras on top, the shake itself didn't hit the mark for me. read more

Interesting art milkshake, great location, well decorated, friendly, tables inside and outside. Because it is new it took us 1:20 min to have our milkshake in our hands. Park in the street. Clean and colorful milkshakes. read more

Terrible service! We waited 20 minutes and still did not get all of our order. The place was disgusting! All the tables were dirty. I would completely understand this if it were crowded & busy but we were the only people waiting. Thankfully, we asked for a refund for the bowl we did not receive and it was given w/out hesitation. read more
