Yes, their milkshakes bring everyone (boys included) to the yard. Well, to Carrollwood at least.
The Yard Milkshake Bar is set to open its third Florida location at 13168 N Dale Mabry Hwy., Unit 30, in the fall. If you know anything about the monstrous milkshakes The Yard creates, then you’ll understand what there is to be excited about.
From a milk and cookies-themed creation featuring a chocolate iced jar with Cookie Crisp lining the rim, topped with whipped cream, an ice cream cookie sandwich and mini chocolate chips to a collaboration with Care Bears (dubbed “Cheer Bear”) made with strawberry ice cream and drizzled with rainbow marshmallow cream, the creations are endless. The rim of Cheer Bear’s jar came lined with vanilla icing and rainbow sprinkles and was topped with rainbow whipped cream, a slice of cheesecake, a sour rainbow straw and Teddy Grahams.
The Yard was featured on “Shark Tank” back in 2019, striking a deal that made opening more franchise locations possible, but ownership hasn't stopped there. There’s also a line of edible cookie dough and milkshake kits for up to 8 people you can grab online if you don’t want to wait for the new location to open.
No official menu for the new location has been announced yet, but you can check out all the oversized creations on Instagram (@theyardmilkshakebar), and also keep up with the latest.
The chain is also hiring.
