Freddy's Frozen Custard Steakburgers

The place was very dirty and the service was terrible. I only ordered 1 regular shake and 1 regular concrete. It took me 20 minutes to get my order and I only got it then because I went back to the counter and stood there until Niaya decided to finish them. She worked as slow as a sloth and would stop making my order to go take orders of customers who came to place an order. One of my custards was melted by the time I got them, but God forbid I asked for a remake. I should've just asked for my money back and then left. There were 3 other workers that I saw. I watched her closely to make sure she didn't spit in my ice cream.

This used to be one of our favorite restaurants, but now it takes an eternity to get your order. They never have sweet tea available. The cleanliness of the place is appalling; it seems like it hasn't been cleaned in months. I had to wipe down a table before we could even sit down to eat. When we requested sweet tea, they informed us that they were out of it. During our last visit, we saw them making a cone of custard that looked really appealing, so we decided to order some, but they told us they were out of custard as well.

I visited the Freddy's in Southhaven once and didn’t have the best experience. However, I decided to give the Olive Branch location a try. I ordered a veggie burger with onions, of course, and also got some onion rings. I really enjoyed the onion rings, but the veggie burger didn’t quite hit the mark for me. On a positive note, the staff were friendly and the place was clean. Today, I broke my non-dairy diet and tried a mini vanilla shake since I wasn’t feeling great. I think the shake is decent for what it is, but it just didn’t really appeal to me.

Unlike most fast food places where the preparation area is out of sight, everything here was visible to customers. We ordered cheese curds and patty melts. The first few cheese curds were decent but overly salty and drenched in grease. When it came to the sandwiches, we took just a couple of bites and found them tasteless and very dry. One sandwich contained no sautéed onions at all, while the other had only a few. This restaurant is located next to a Chick-fil-A and several other dining options, all of which were packed with customers on a Friday night. Given the competition, this place should be doing more to attract that crowd.

Since I am reviewing specifically on my frozen custard experience (and not the hot food), this review might be a little different than what the other reviewers had to say. Therefore, this takes me on a trip to the small city of Olive Branch, Mississippi where I had the opportunity of trying out Freddy 's Frozen Custard Steakburgers . I am no stranger to Freddy 's as I have been to a couple of their locations many years ago. Located directly on Camp Creek Rd., this particular Freddy 's is surrounded by a ton of eateries in the area while neighboring an Abbays and a Chick-Fil-A . Parking is fairly easy to find as my visit which was during the evening of Saturday 9/25/2021, there was quite a few empty spaces. However, the inside was quite busy as I witnessed several families all enjoying some good old comfort food. There is also a convenient drive-thru in case you don 't wish to exit your vehicle. On the inside, this place was very well-lit, spacious, and quite inviting. It gives you that feeling of being in a nostalgic 1950 's diner complete with fire engine red chairs and booths while the floor tiles are black and white. There is also an area where you can buy custard, cakes, and pies to go as well as other condiments including their very own fry sauce and fry seasoning. Finally, there are two public restrooms located at the rear side of the building. Since I was already quite full from eating a big dinner a couple hours prior to coming here, I came here specifically for some frozen custard, a southern staple. I decided to go with a mini size of one of their most popular desserts, a Signature Turtle Sundae . This sundae consists of fresh creamy vanilla custard, hot fudge, hot caramel, toasted pecans, whipped cream. Since this was a fairly easy item to make, my sundae was ready within a couple minutes. Overall, my sundae was above average. What I like about custard vs. ice cream is that the consistency is smoother while the taste is sweeter with heavier use
