Andy’s Frozen Custard

The first and still best frozen custard I’ve ever tried. Friends finally convinced me that frozen custard is not custard that has been chilled, so I tried it. This stuff must be laced with illicit substances because I feel like I could eat a gallon of this stuff. Tons of ingredients you can add to your concrete, seasonal offerings to keep you interested, and pretty quick service given how busy this place is. You know you’ve stumbled on a great frozen treat shop when there are cars lined up … out to the street … every night … even in January … with snow on the ground.

Best ice cream around! The staff is always wonderful and I’ve never been let down there! Plus they always have a buy one get one coupon which makes it cheap!

Even though it was moderately busy I thought the service was fast and friendly.
I had a straw anna sundae– very good!

First time having custard and it is delicious! Wish we had this place on the West Coast

What can I say? I love Andy’s. I lived really close to this location so I went here all the time, sometimes several nights in a row. I even saved the cups they gave me. The trick to enjoying Andy’s is to know each topping and add enough to make it taste great. I’ve had some crazy concretes in my day. The first time I went I went through the drive thru. If this is your first time going here, don’t go through the drive thru. There is an employee that steps outside to take your order because they are always packed with customers. I didn’t get a chance to really consider a choice, so I ordered the strawanna. I was really disappointed with my selection after seeing what my friend ordered, but I felt like I was put on-​the-​spot by the employee.
I liked what I ordered, but I went back a few days later and ordered outside from the menu. The first concrete I ordered was a keylime cheesecake. It was two topping, but I really liked it. After that, I began experimenting with different toppings. Knowing what the toppings are like and how they are mixed can lead to the perfect desert. The concrete was the only thing I really ordered here, and I’m aware that not everything on the menu is that great. My friend ordered a rootbeer float once and we weren’t very impressed. The drink was expensive for what he got and it was gone pretty fast. When I order a concrete, I can finish half until I get full and I save the rest in the freezer and eat it again later.
There is no indoor eating here, all of the seating is outdoors. This place is so popular that the seating area gets swamped and the drive through goes down the street and beyond, so it might be a good idea to plan a backup idea for desert in case it’s too busy. When it’s cold outside in the Winter, standing outside can be the fastest way to get your order because you can avoid the drive through. I’ve done it before, it was pretty uncomfortable but worth it. Each order is about 7 dollars, which is actually pretty average for specialty custard.

Great place for a warm summer afternoon. Drive in style vibe with people sitting around at benches or in their cars enjoying the atmosphere. My favorite is the turtle!

Andy’s is always good. Winter, Summer, doesn’t matter, its amazingness. So stop on in sometime! Try a James Brownie Jackhammer! Or a Tiger Streak Concrete!

Andy’s is awesome… enough said. My family and i have tried just about everything they offer. We have no complaints!

I will NEVER return to this location until they begin splitting orders for the drive-​thru window. This is an incredibly poor business practice, and I wish them nothing but the worst until they learn to put customers first.

My wife and I love this place. They always have a seasonal special, like now is thin mint concretes, but they use peach pie and pumpkin pie during the respective seasons. Staff is always polite, and even with a long line, it doesn’t take very long to order and get your cup or cone. Did I mention they have a drive through? Awesome!

If you love frozen custard, and who doesn’t, this is the place to go, in CoMo. Reasonable prices, fast service, and custard that hits the sweet spot between too hard and pre-​melted.
My wife got a vanilla and I got a chocolate custard cup. Both were small size and they were $ 1.84 each, plus tax. Each consisted of two, decent size scoops, served in a plastic cup. Texture was utterly creamy, with absolutely no grain or odd textures that you sometimes find in custard. Flavors were true and right on the beam.
One odd note. The drive through didn’t have a speaker to order from. Instead, a very cheerful young woman periodically appeared at the back door, ran up to a car, asked them what they wanted, and then ran back in to input the order. It offended my sense of process efficiency, but it go the job done!

It’s no Ted Drewes, but the service was good and the concrete was big. I had a James Brownie Jackhammer. Brownie chunks in a vanilla concrete with hot fudge down the middle. The drive thru line was long, but it seemed to go rather quickly. The place was packed, so it looked like a Columbia hot spot. I’d go again in a pinch.

Love Andy’s! Always a great place to go for a treat. They have so many toppings and they’re all equally great! I am always content with a single chocolate cone. It hits all the right spots for me. And if the custard alone can do that — sold. The only thing I have to say that’s really negative is that it’s always crowded. For good reason though. The service is quite quick and efficient however! Also, if you like mint, maybe be careful of their mint flavoring. It’s a bit strong for me but my roommate seems to like it!

Always a good time when we go to Andys! Definitely satisfies that sweet tooth I get sometimes!

Very impressive custard in Columbia. I like this place better than Ted Drewes in St Louis. But maybe just my preference.
The custard is very creamy and not too sweet at all, which I love. It is kinda pricey but I think very similar to other frozen custard places.
I prefer the vanilla than the chocolate because the vanilla would not overwhelm other toppings while the chocolate is very chocolaty (which is good), but maybe just not my taste.

Great place, awesome vibe, and really good frozen custard! On a warm summer evening, this is one happening place in town.

Finally had a chance to go to Andy’s! My sis has been raving about this place for ages, but the experience was overall average. If not a bit disappointed. Perhaps it was due to the high expectation!!!
My sister, for some weird reason, got the Mint Chip Concrete which tasted like toothpaste. Oh boy did I feel refreshing after eating a scoop!
I got the summer limited flavor: Strawberry Shortcake Concrete! Maybe because I’ve lived in the food snob Bay Area that thrive on everything fresh and organic for the past 5 years, for $ 7, I was expecting some organic strawberry compote generously drizzled over freshly baked fluffy shortcake but what I got was some premade syrupy strawberry with some bland dense cake. The vanilla ice cream was pretty tasty though.
Note to self: keep low expectation no matter how great other says and everything will taste better… Much better.
tldr: just get the basic. No need to add the fluffy because it’s not worth the money

About a quarter-​century ago, I had a bad experience with some frozen custard in Paddock Lake, Wisconsin. I’d pretty much sworn off of frozen custard until today, when on a friend’s recommendation I gave Andy’s a shot. I am pleased to report that I no longer hate frozen custard! It’s kind of neat watching them make it, as the custard streams out of the machine. We bought frozen treats for a family of 5, and the total was just over $ 20. My only complaint is there are no tables to sit at.

Andy’s Frozen Custard was my jam when I was in college.
When the weather is warmer, this place gets packed with families, college kids, and teens. That’s probably the biggest downside but can you blame them? They make good custard.
The service is pretty quick and always friendly. My absolute favorite item to get here is their turtle Sunday. They put pecans with chocolate and caramel syrup on vanilla ice cream. Now, I recognize this is probably common, but Andy’s does it right. It’s sooooo goood.
If you are looking for some good Frozen Custard in CO, MO than Andy’s is your spot.

This is my first time having custard and I love it! So creamy and rich like the secret lovechild of ice cream and frozen yogurt. It’s kind of neat having this old style drive through, walk up location just across the way from Hyvee on the corner of Nifong. Check out all the different combinations but beware! Sizes run big and it may be worth sharing if you’re already full from dinner. I tried the strawberry sundae special which had shortcake on the bottom, sweet strawberry slices on top and man… I wish I could have more now. Don’t think of custard as custard– think of it as yummmmmm.
Prices are pretty high though and that one sundae ran over $ 5. I’d still totally come back but I just wish they could lower the prices a tad. It is fun to look in the window and see them mixing away though!
