Late at night I don't crave french fries or chicken nuggets- I crave ice cream. Being an avid ice cream eater has made me aware of the best places to satisfy my late night craving. Whether it's a milk shake or a double scoop, the places below have got you covered.
1. Sonic
Sonic is the perfect place to fix an ice cream craving. They have endless milkshakes, malts, blasts and ice cream slushes to pick from. Sonic also has a happy hour after 8PM where all milkshakes and ice cream slushes are half price!
2. Steak & Shake
If you've never had a Steak & Shake milkshake in a cold glass, you're missing out. The best thing about Steak & Shake is that they always have seasonal flavors to match your unique cravings. They have half priced shakes during their happy hour too from 2PM-4PM and 2AM-4AM! Eat them inside or grab one while going through the drive-through.
3. McDonald's
The infamous McFlurry never disappoints. The two classic flavors, Oreo or M&M, are more delicious. Beware: most McDonald's flurry machines will be down only when you crave one. Have a backup plan when it comes to McFlurrys.
4. Dairy Queen
What I love most about Dairy Queen blizzards, besides the fact that they hand them to you upside down, is the number of flavors they offer. Whether you want the classic Oreo or something new like strawberry cheesecake, Dairy Queen will never disappoint. Blizzards also come in many seasonal flavors, so keep a look out for when your old favorite makes a comeback!
5. Wendy's
Frosties: milkshake or soft serve ice cream? Regardless of what you classify them as, I classify them as delicious. The classic chocolate can cure any craving, though the vanilla is just as great. Most have never tried the vanilla frosty. If this applies to you, you're missing out. If you can't choose which one is your favorite, ask for a mixed frosty- the best of both worlds.
No matter where your go-to place is for late night ice cream runs, these 5 are definitely worth the hype. No matter your flavor or type, late night ice creams ranks supreme.
