Great shakes, but very limited vegan options - Edit
They can make their shakes with non-dairy ice cream and whipped cream, but most of the shakes on the menu have other mix-ins that are non-vegan. Their chocolate sauce is apparently non-vegan, so any chocolate shakes are out. Their menu rotates, but when I was there I was told that the only fully veganizable options were The Street (cookies and cream) and Bangkok Betty (mango/coconut).
Read moreI got The Street, and it was very good. It was a large portion and and very thick, so I recommend sharing with a friend if you can. There was a blue drizzle around the cup that made it pretty to look at. It came with some sort of pastry topper - I didn't ask if it was vegan, so I can only hope that it was.
Due to the limited options I'd recommend a fully vegan place like Hug Life or Dear Bella over this place. But if you do find yourself here you can still get a very good shake.
Pros: delicious, rich milkshake, servers are friendly and welcoming, vegan whipped cream
Cons: only a couple of vegan options

A Sugar Bomb - Edit
A whole shop dedicated to Milkshakes with some boozy options? Sounds like a teenage dream to me. Even though those years are long gone, a guy can still reminisce right?
Read moreThe Straw is known for their locked and loaded milkshakes where you can add whiskey if you so desire. When we went, that was the only alcohol available but I'd love for them to bring in Kahlua or something similar.
I ordered the Cookies N Cream ($10), which they made vegan for me by subbing it out with vegan whip and ice cream. They assured me that everything else in the drink was already vegan (cause why have a vegan milkshake if part of it isn't?)
My drink was a sugary explosion of cookies, cream, and deliciousness. It was a great treat to end the night. One milkshake can definitely be split by two people at least, and that's something I highly recommend.
I couldn't tell initially since it was so dark inside, but my milkshake was actually blue and very Sesame Street esque. Thanks Straw for the friendly service and trip down memory lane.
Pros: Certain milkshakes can be veganized
