Blinker Frozen Custard

Ugh… Blinkers. where do I begin? First of all, if you get there early enough you’ll be treated to a nice alcohol taste in your ice cream… no doubt due to them not thoroughly washing the ice cream nozzles out after sanitizing them. If that’s not enough you can gleefully enjoy very bland custard in rather small portions… for roughly the same price you’d pay at nearby Flipper’s.
The ice cream is passable if you get it later in the day (because it won’t have the rubbing alcohol taste), but it’s just… just…so regular. If you ever go to custard corral or Flipper’s you’ll see what I mean. I used to live on the block right next to Blinker’s but I would still pass by it and go to Flipper’s because their custard was just THAT much better.

awesome summer place to walk to

Blinker’s is a pretty good Ice Cream place. They open early in the year (March I think), have some great shakes and cones. They give a very generous amount for a «Medium» (more like a Large at other places), but are a little bit pricier. The parking isn’t great, but if you just drive by and come back 2 – 3 minutes later there is usually a spot.
The staff is friendly (always a middle-​aged woman when I went), and was very accommodating with my girlfriend’s younger brother.

Blinker Custard for most people is almost always a stop due to convenience rather than quality or price for that matter. Now I must admit Ive never had a bad ice cream experience here, however its not my first choice due to the cost. I dont really know ice cream prices but I think $ 7 is alot for a sundae. I much rather prefer Custard Corral, funny thing is I probably go here more often due to its location. I usually get a strawberry sundae or the orange cream twist (classic). The have over 20 flavors of soft serve (literally) and they are all pretty good. There is almost always a line if its nice out. It also great that they are open til 11. They also have hot dogs, pretzels, and other small snacks. They even make and take custom cake order from what I read. So enjoy, just bring your pay check.

Our family enjoys ice cream and shakes. Blinker could not be more convenient for us as it is right at the corner as we head for home from whenever we are in town. Because of that, we frequent here.
It’s a popular place and during the warmer months there is often a line to be waited upon. The help is usually high school girls.
The number of flavors is numerous. We never have a problem finding something to order. The sizes are reasonable.
We like chocolate malts and Blinker makes a good one. There are three sizes. Medium is large enough as large is huge!
Prices are reasonable.
There’s no place to sit once you have your order. We always head home, which makes ordering cones a no-​no when we are alone.
