Shakeaway - Brighton and Hove

Yum! I ordered the Ferrero-shake and it tasted exactly like that. I also have to try the Ameretti shake and if you like almond, try it! I wish there is a shakeaway where I live now. in the grunde this place uses sweetness bars, cookies, müsli and dessert, and they create a milkshake for them! shakeaway is quite unique b/c the workers who work there, put their favorite creations on the menu board, so customers can also order their creations.

Shakeaway's popularity is ever-evident. The queues on Saturdays stretch out onto the street, and even on weekdays, there's always a bit of a wait. The concept is simple and fabulous: just about any type of milkshake you can think of, all in one place and made up fresh. It's almost food in many cases. Flavours include an array of different chocolate bars, biscuits, even cereals. There's even (although I can't say I'm too tempted to try it) a Farley's rusk flavour. You can make up your own combinations for a little extra cash, and students get a 10% discount.

I lovvvvvve Shakeaway. I mean, seriously, ice cream sweets milkshake?? Yeahhh! Coolest idea ever. This is quite simply one of the most awesome fast food places I've ever been to. You turn up, walk in, and they have this whole host of the nicest sweets ever created on the planet lined up at the side for you to choose from. All the classics. Hersheys Cookies and Cream, Kit Kat, Skittles everything! All you do is pick one, or two or three if you're feeling greedy! , choose to have either a small or a large, and then there'll take your ingredients, put them in a blender, and make you the nicest milkshake you've ever tasted! I particularly recommend a large Hersheys Cookies and Cream with Custard Creams, because it is quite simply exquisite!

I like milkshakes: who doesn't? Apart from losers, or the lactose intolerant, who at least have a valid excuse, everyone likes milkshakes, and Shakeaway plays right into that obvious market, providing tasty milkshakes with anything you can imagine blended in. Yes, anything: even Flying Saucers, and that's just wrong. Yep, milkshakes with sweets mixed into them: you can make your perfect milkshake after a couple tries, and you'll be very happy with the result, as it's all your favourite stuff! The set-up here is perfect for the finicky, which means even die-hard cynics like me can find something that they like. The only problems here, apart from the sweetness overload (it's all overly sweet, nothing you can really do about that), are the prices and the queues. I won't go into the prices again (simply: Brighton is expensive), and the queues are just indicative of it's success. In this case, the crowd are going to the right place: join the queue and create your favourite milkshake!

If someone had come up to me 10 years ago and asked if I'd fancy investing in a milkshake shop in Bighton I think I would've told them where to go, via business school. This place though is an absolute goldmine! Every lunchtime whether in the week or weekend, there's people cueing out of the door. Good for them I say as its a very good idea. There's so much to choose from in here but I have a huge chocolate addiction (especially Cadburys) so usually go for the Cadbury's Caramel shake. Once in a while its orth treating yourself to something this nice!
