Adjacent to the St. Pete Pier and Museum of Fine Arts, The Yard’s neighbors include Paradeco Coffee Roasters, Stillwaters Tavern and Cassis.
October’s offerings involve expected fall flavors like pumpkin as well as spooky decorations, but The Yard will offer rotating specials in addition to its permanent menu of cookies and cream, Key lime pie and salted caramel cheesecake shakes. One of this month’s speciality creations is the “Put a Spell on You” milkshake—complete with hazelnut ice cream, purple marshmallow drizzle, a Nutella-dipped jar rolled in pretzel “broomsticks” and topped with a brownie and pumpkin cookie dough scoop.
According to ILovetheBurg, The Yard will only offer one dessert concoction exclusive to its upcoming St. Pete location. The $19 coconut and pineapple-flavored “Hurricane Pete” shake comes with a bright blue marshmallow drizzle, vanilla icing and cotton candy. Non-milkshake options on its menu include ice cream sundaes and cookie dough bowls—which are also dressed up and decorated.
The Yard's speciality milkshakes—served in a souvenir pint glass—typically range from $17-$19, with its other smaller desserts costing less.
Since its inception in 2017, which has its humble beginnings on the popular TV show “Shark Tank,” The Yard has opened dozen of milkshake shops across the country. Alongside St. Pete’s upcoming storefront and the recently-opened milkshake bar in Carrollwood, there are other Florida-based locations in Jacksonville, Destin and Panama City Beach.
