**INITIAL REVIEW**…read more Firstly, I have indulged in Whit's Frozen Custard multiple times on different occassions, with the last time being at Grace Community Church in West Melbourne, FL during one of their special Sunday events. This is probably the first time - that I can remember - I ate frozen custard directly from their brick-and-mortar store located in Historic Downtown Melbourne. So was Whit's Frozen Custard, at least the locale in Historic Downtown Melbourne, a yay or a nay? Frozen custard-wise, it is a yay, but in general, it is not necessarily a nay, but more an observation that can make or break a patron's view of wanting to go to Whit's Frozen Custard (which I will shorthand simply to Whit's for the remainder of this review) or somewhere else. Even though an address is provided, Whit's is located in the East side of Historic Downtown Melbourne, in between Crush XI and Constant Pressure Tattoo Shop. I must stress that Whit's is probably not handicap accessible as the only way in and out has four steps. Inside is quite minimalistic with its overuse of the color white (which kinda fits with their name) and stainless steel, but it fits their theme. The seating is also minimalistic, but it is assumed most people will take their custard and walk with it around and about downtown. Whit's also has numerous flavors pre-packaged for sale, but their flavors they have ready-to-serve is minimal. You can choose either vanilla, chocolate, or the flavor of the day. Today when I went, the two flavors for Sunday was peach and Heath bar. I had two scoops of peach were a nice amount of frozen custard to eat for like $6. Not bad for the price they provide. Given the information above, this is either a yay or nay compared to other frozen custard places. Other places have more options, but they are not necessarily top tier across the board. Other places may be less in price, but the amount of frozen custard you get will be less than the price you pay with Whit's. Like I said, these are not criticisms, but more like personal observations that cater to one's preferences. With that in mind, I am going to give Whit's three out of five stars. They are a-okay with what they have and what they have is delicious, but depending on my mood, I will either go to them... or not. Now if they are consistent with this setup, I will definitely give them an extra star for said consistency. But right now, they are three stars meaning they are a-okay.

They have a wide variety of options and prices are pretty standard for the ice cream scene. It's clear that it's a favorite amongst the locals, but it loses a star for the inconvenience of having to have cash. Luckily we scrounged up enough to at least get the kids something, otherwise they would have lost our business as we did not anticipate needing cash for the evening and are not from the area so we had no idea until we were in line that we couldn't use card.

I thought the Cookie Monster would just be filled with lots of different cookies I had no idea that it was more about Cookie Monster from sesame Street and would be blue with some cookies mixed it.

The place is built so you can sit inside a shaded area, even though it is outside, and it's most likely a fun place to bring the kids. The problem was, the ice cream seemed to be store bought, and was way too hard to eat. The prices are what you get for on the beach ice cream, but... we could not finish our ice creams due to it being frozen in the center, so.. we threw ours out. As far as where to bring some kids to keep them entertained, why not? But.. not for us.
