Cinnamon Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 My daughters introduced me to the delights of our local Shakeaway over the holidays - anyone else ever been? Basically its a milkshake bar,but they add sweeties,cookies & cakes to the shakes,so you can order things like Bourbon biscuit,bakewell tart,Crunchy Nut Cornflakes,Ferrero Rocher,Horlicks,Lemon Curd,jaffa cakes,marmalade,& Snickers Milkshakes. There are literally hundereds to choose from. Then you can mix them,so for instance you can have an apple pie with custard & cinnamon one. I abstained,but the daughters had a Reeces cups & a Smarties one each,which I did try & they were delicious www.shakeaway.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachel19 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 I love shakeaway too!!!! There's one in the North Laines in Brighton and is very very popular with all us students! I highly recommend the oreo milkshake and the skittles one is very nice too - the list is endless but I will make my way through them one day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Never heard of them, but I have to admit that I'm not a big fan of milkshakes at all, and I really don't have much by way of a sweet tooth so they don't appeal to me personally. I think I'll stick with Laura Think I'll just stick with my glass of wine at the mo That said I just bet that my children would like them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
