Oh wow...come on people. Shakers deserves some recognition! It's a small town classic mom and pop…read moregrill. I just can't believe there's only 3 reviews about this place. I'm ready to call Guy Fieri on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives! I figured Shakers would be the most popular attraction in Mound City, Missouri!! Anyhow...let me give a little info and background on Shakers. I was driving along my cross country road trip through Missouri and was yearning for a homely/informal restaurant that would be popular and authentic to the area. So I Googled "places to eat" in Mound City and Shakers appeared. Then I ventured on over here. Shakers is a little family burger and ice cream joint. They have a menu posted on a board next to the takeout window. Walking up to order...I could just sense whatever I chose was going to be hot and fresh made to order. Shakers is situated just off the main road. I parked in the lot and then strolled over to the front section where they featured picnic tables to sit down and eat at. When I was ready, I just went up to the window to ordered. The menu board was very simple, with cheap prices ranging anywhere from $5 - $10 or so. I'll list the whole menu board right here... - Ice Cream Treats - cups/cones, floats, malts, ice cream shakers, sundaes, flavor bursts, and ice cream specials! - Finger Foods - chicken tenders, popcorn chicken, beer battered shrimp, Buffalo chicken, cheese fries, nachos, mozzarella sticks, French fries, onion rings. - Sandwiches - pork tenderloin, chicken filet, deli turkey, tuna salad, grilled cheese, hot dog, chili dog, hamburger, cheeseburger. - Baskets (served with French fries and Texas toast) - chicken tenders, jumbo popcorn chicken, boneless Buffalo chicken, beer battered shrimp, catfish tenders. Basically, anything and everything you could ask for from a good old fashioned hamburger and hot dog establishment....Shakers featured. Seriously, they cater to the entire family and children. The menu board may appear small in stature, but it's packed with All-American favorites! I ordered an old cheeseburger with onion rings, soda and a large cookie dough shaker. The meal came to around $15 and then I threw a few dollars in the tip jar. I then waited at the picnic table for my order to be called. I was very surprised for the summertime just how quiet it was here, but because of this 2020 pandemic, I guess a lot of people were staying at home. Still, I was just grateful they even let me sit down at the tables because....I was getting quite tired of eating in the front seat of my car for almost every meal along my cross country drive. Another really cool aspect about Shakers is they had a drive-thru. So for those who'd like to take their food "to-go" with them...this was convenient. I maybe waited 10 minutes for my meal. My burger and onion rings came inside of a vintage old fashioned basket. My cheeseburger fresh was right off the grill. It came with lettuce and tomato on a soft bun. The onion rings were out of this world!! They were so hot and crispy straight from the fryer. The onion rings were the star of the meal! And my cookie dough shaker was filled with plenty of cookie dough pieces. For every bit I took...I had a piece of cookie dough in my mouth, lol. The shaker was like a meal in and of itself. Finally, Shakers was such a pleasant surprise on my trek through Missouri. It was a great way to have a no frills type of meal sitting down outside at the picnic tables while enjoying the warm summer weather. This charming family quick-stop grill was the ideal place for that meal I was craving. I highly recommend Shakers to everyone in Mound City. I hope this place is doing okay through the horrible pandemic. I hope Mound City supports them well. I assume the word is out on this place. Just...3 Yelp reviews is shockingly disappointing.

Fries were only half cooked. More floppy and mushy than crispy and also tasteless. Chicken planks were very nasty. Barely crispy and the breading was falling off in chunks. Everything was way too expensive for what we got. Malts were the only reason I gave them 2 stars. Disappointing but typical Nebraska crap food. The only people who can think this is good are the ones who have never eaten outside this state. Nebraska definitionally has some positives, but not a single one can apparently cook.

Once that family left I waited another 5 minutes before being helped. Got a phone call from my mom who was waiting in my car with my grandma saying we have waited long enough let's go. So we left. With summer here maybe think about having more than 2 people taking orders and filling those orders if you want a blooming business full of customers. Waiting 25 minutes for ice cream cones is ridiculous. Always have great food. Love the establishment. You all need more workers so customers don't have to wait that long. thanks

Food is served here as well but we just came in for the ice cream. Let me tell you, they serve a large cone here and it is MASSIVE! I wish I would have gotten a photo of that! I mean think about a corn dog you get at the fair, that is the size of this ice cream cone! So cool and fun. We will definitely be stopping in again soon!

I visited them at the Nebraska Brewing Company summer night market, and we ordered a few things. They offer ice cream cones in different Harry Potter house colors. I picked the Hufflepuff because it came in a black vanilla cone with cookies and cream ice cream (my fav!) The cones they use are not the kind you find in the box at the grocery store. They are gorgeously decorated with designs - it looked so opulent and fancy on the black cone I had! We also tried some of the floats. The root beer float was amazing, probably due to the high quality ice cream they use, which I also noticed in my Hufflepuff cone. And I tried the Butterbeer Float and - my heavens - that was delicious. A twist on a normal root beer float but with buttery, creamy Butterbeer soda swapped out for the normal root beer. Yum!! The staff was nice and expedient with the orders, they have a fun theme to enjoy, and their ice cream and other treats were beyond tasty. That's an A+ in my book!
