Bob Jo’s Frozen Custard

Best custard around! Line is a little long on the weekend but they move though it fast. It’s worth the wait!

Great custard, great atmosphere, definitely a Downriver Wyandotte gem. I know people who regularly come from Novi and Livonia for the Custard.

I worked there as a kid. $ 2.65 per hour back in the day. I would have seniors tell me that they meet there after the war and they had been married for years!
Today it is as good as ever! No charge. Bring cash. Huge portions. Great staff! Toasted coconut with chocolate custard; Just perfect!

Creamy cold and so delicious. This is by far the best frozen custard. I can’t eat Dairy Queen any more after tasting this ice cream. A downriver classic.

My childhood on a cone! Seriously the best frozen custard on the planet. My dad used to take us there all the time as kids and I have so many fond memories of enjoying custard on a hot summer day sitting at those old round cement tables. I was just there on Sunday and had the red raspberry custard, it was so good!

This place is a downriver gem. I’ve been coming here for years. Their custard is great, service is fast. I typically get a vanilla custard cone with sprinkles or toasted coconut. Their custard is pretty thick but light and airy at the same time. I rated this 4 instead of 5 stars because they do not take debit card. I wish they would update that!

This place is as good as (literally) everyone says. Good, quality custard with interesting favors (blueberry cheesecake right now!) and great prices!
My only issue is that it was hard to actually get into the parking lot haha. I drove by a couple times because you have to turn onto Quarry to get in — you can’t actually get there from Fort.
Also, their listed hours here on Unilocal are wrong. I mentioned it to the manager there and she said she’d notify the owner. I have no idea what the actual hours are, but they’re definitely open later than 11:30am :)

This place doesn’t look fantastic, but the custard is so perfect. My mom and the rest of my family went here on a trip to the area. I was excited because I haven’t had custard in AGES.
They did not disappoint. I think my boyfriend and I paid $ 8 for two massive portions. It was a cold day though, so we found it hard to eat our size MEDIUM custards. The flavor was on point, and the toppings were perfect. I am still able to perfectly recall just how tasty these were. I mean really, if you haven’t had Bob Jo’s yet, you really need to go.
I can see this being a trend for future visits. I will definitely get a smaller size next time though. It’s rich stuff, and it’s easy to let your eyes guide you instead of your stomach.

If you like frozen custard, you should love this place. It’s one of those super nostalgic places that just hits all the right notes. There’s usually always a line and it always goes quick. Bring cash and get the chocolate and vanilla custard swirl on a sugar cone with chocolate sprinkles. Hnnnnnnghhhh… So good.

I found myself Downriver with my father in law and my son. Neither of which have ever had the pleasure of tasting the greatest frozen custard on the planet. Seriously, if you haven’t had their frozen custard, you MUST try it. Rich, creamy, deliciousness. It’s amazing. I sent a picture of the building to my wife, to show her where we had stopped off. Her only response, «Dick move.» LOLOLOLOLOLOL Really though, you have no idea what you’re missing.

Anyone who rates this less that five stars has no taste buds or seriously needs to get them checked out. This place is great, lines are usually long & it’s been around forever… That right there is a clue as to how great the custard is.

Just doesn’t live up to the hype! Was sooo disappointed, because folks had really talked this place up & my expectations were high. If you want frozen custard, do yourself a favor & drive to Danny’s frozen custard in Monroe. «You won’t be sorry & you’ll definitely notice the difference.»

If you haven’t been to Bob Jo’s you just wouldn’t understand. This is a must for anyone in the area. If you’re not in the area it’s time to go for a nice ride. Best Custard you’ll ever have.

There is simply nothing that says summer like a frozen custard from Bob Jos. Day or night there’s always a line, and once you’ve tasted the custard you will know why. The menu is short; cone, sundae and maybe one or two specialty items. Nothing fancy is needed though because the favor of the creamy custard is enough. Usually a fan of the twist but tonight I had the chocolate marshmallow and it was delish!

This might not be the best frozen custard in the world, but don’t tell anyone Downriver that. Those are fighting words. This is excellent custard. A Downriver landmark for over 50 years, which many consider the jewel of the area. You will stand in a long line on a hot summer night but the wait is worth it. .They have chocolate and vanilla and a twist all the time, and a spotlight flavor. Some of them are better than others. Had strawberry recently that tasted artificial. Try to be there when they have pistachio. It really is as good as it gets. Highly recommend.

It’s worth going to Bob Jo’s even when it is 45 degrees outside.
Great prices for a ton of delicious custard, in addition to rotating yogurt and custard flavors. This is the only place I have seen that has toasted coconut as a topping — delicious. When I had it with the coconut custard, I almost died!

CASH only. CASH only. I had pineapple frozen yogurt. My wife and children had frozen chocolate custard. The custard was better than the yogurt. Custard was creamy and rich. Limited flavors. The building is old. The business is cash only. There are no restrooms. There are about 6 tables. Not much more. I’d rate the place higher if there were amenities. Kids make a mess; it’d be nice to have an area to clean them up.

Best frozen custard in all of Downriver area, and they have chocolate custard!
A Downriver institution, and a South East Michigan treasure. Only complaint is that on a warm Friday evening, the line is long but worth the wait. But then again, it would not be the same without the crowds.

I had a really crappy day. I was ripped off on eBay, had computer issues at work (thanks Uverse), my head hurt, I broke a nail, had cramps and I missed lunch because a certain take out place would not answer their damn phone. I was cranky as hell and my blood sugar was low low low. I left work early.
This is the kind of day where you might end up in a bar drinking your sorrows away. I can be lushy but I hate to drink when I’m upset. I prefer to eat food that is bad for me, it’s comforting.
Bob Jo’s was the solution. I have been wanting to try it but never get over here. I hiked my butt over here on a mission, I ordered a medium half and half cone and gobbled it up in nothing flat. Creamy, rich, satisfying and delicious. I immediately felt better.
Was it good for me? No. Did I savor every damn bite? In my speedy fashion, yes. Will I go back? Definitely!

Wow — great frozen custard. With body and flavor. None of that watery yogurt or DQ here.
The vanilla was just great which led to a chocolate cone. The texture is perfect. The chocolate was almost like a frozen mousse.
I haven’t found better in the area.
My medium was huge but next time I’m getting a large since it’s a long drive.
