MIlkshake shop on Great Western Road?

princessoPUNK · 1st April 2009, 7:07am

Yesterday, a friend from uni told me there is a shop on Great Western Road that makes chocolate bar milkshakes, in which you choose your favourite chocolate bar, and they make it into a milkshake.

Does anyone know what it's called?

I've heard of it and i believe it's called "shake" (although the person could have been saying "sheik" - plus, they could have been wrong, or i might be mis-remembering. so to sum up, i'm probably not much help.)

mmmmm id still prefer a strawberry shake anyday :/

Some of the ingredients have registered trade and brand names.
These are used as ingredients only, so don't think any ShakeAway MilkShakes are made by the manufacturers of those products...
We just take their delicious products and blend them to bits!

I've just realised they do one with Reese's Cups in it. THe Ferrero Rocher and Kinder Bueno one looks pretty amazing too. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I'm quite tempted to go out and get stuff to make my own now...

Jushin Liger · 1st April 2009, 1:19pm

For clarity that menu is from the shake away franchise. I'm not sure about the menu for Shake on Gt Western Rd

Dec · 1st April 2009, 1:38pm

Shake Away is a fucking brilliant name. Legit lolling here.

CHUCK LIDELOL · 1st April 2009, 1:42pm

Chocolate is for nerds, pimps and poseurs.

Pretty Kitty · 1st April 2009, 2:20pm

There is one of these in Stirling where they will stick anything they want in your milkshake(as long as it will go in the blender).
One of the guys that works there was telling me that some people come in with stuff like ham.
Ham milkshake....eh naw.

They should totally strike a marketing deal with these guys.
