Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers
Revisit the spirit of the 1950s and bite into an all American treat at Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers. Stack your cooked-to-order steakburger in a single, double or triple and add Freddy’s shoestring fries complete with our famous seasoning. If you’re craving something with more “ballpark” style, grab a Chicago dog or smother your dog with mouth watering chili, shredded cheese and diced onions. When you’re ready for dessert, cool off with a cone, cup or specialty sundae of frozen custard, a gourmet ice cream treat – or indulge yourself with a scrumptious concrete, a super thick, blended custard creation that you can customize with everything from Oreos to toasted coconut. Fill your heart with nostalgia and your belly with the highest quality food made fresh after you order it at Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers.
