8June26, 8pm and my Wife sees a TikTok of this place that opened up a week or so ago called The Milkshake Factory. We have been going on rides in and around The Woodlands since we got the Harley Trike, usually getting an ice cream from DQ near the end of the ride. Tonight we started the ride with milk shakes from The Milkshake Factory. This is a BIG STEP UP from Dairy Queen near the house. I got the mint chip shake ($6.95) and my Wife got a plain Chocolate shake (also 6.95). After getting our shakes (in under two minutes) we headed outside to a bench nearby to enjoy them. Mine was creamy with bits of chocolate bouncing up a rather large bore straw that held firm to a big pull. Apparently someone at Corporate has a clue about what constitutes a proper milkshake straw. I tried a sip of my Wife's chocolate shake and it was also creamy with a chocolaty finish that let you know it was milk chocolate. Both of these were premium shakes that did not disappoint the taste buds or texture of the pull. While I would not go here often, the shakes are rich, I would make it a place to consider for an after meal treat from time to time. Their menu is large for a speciality shop and their chocolate bar samples were tasty as well. They are in the Kroger Shopping Center off of Gosling and Research Forest on the Shadowbend side of Kroger. Most nights they are open until 10pm. Go grab a shake and see just how good a premium milkshake can be. Ciao, Darrell read more

New milkshake place in the Woodlands. The place is clean and staff (teens) were nice and they were on top of their game. It's located in the Kroger shopping strip and there's plenty of parking. Plenty. They offer samples of their chocolate bark- don't skip out on this. The second time I came, I left with a bark of s'mores. Their bark pieces are huge! Now to the milkshakes: First time I went I had their cookie brownie fudge. They top it with a piece of chocolate bark and the drink is served pretty fast. Loved the thickness of the shake but was very disappointed by the brownie taste. Pieces of brownie that tasted old. Ruined the shake. Second time- even though the first time was a disappointment- I went back to show support. I had their chocolatier and this one was much better compared to the first one. There was a lot of chocolate chips (they didn't skim on that) and again the shake was thick and creamy. The place is a pricey- $14 for a bark and shake, but it's good every one in awhile. read more

I had an ok experience at milkshake factory. The service and vibe were nice, but I thought my milkshake was just ok. I got the peanut butter brownie milkshake. It was just ok. It was a bit too sweet and liquidy for my taste. I felt like it was lacking a bit of depth & I couldn't really taste the peanut butter. Maybe a bit of salt would've been nice too. Was a bit disappointed given this is a milkshake shop... The vibe was really great here though. Staff were nice, my order was fulfilled quickly, and the interior was clean and modern. I probably wouldn't come back here personally, but if you like milkshakes maybe give it a try read more

My son and I came for the grand opening. And it was grand indeed. They had a long line but graciously provided cool water. They also had a caricature artist and very festive decor. Very nice touch. Inside, we were met with samples and a large menu. Very warm customer service on what was a very busy day. So glad to have this treat spot in the neighborhood. read more

Empty on a Friday night 30 minutes before closing. You can sample the bark for free and we tried and peanut butter toffee and instantly fell in love and ordered a piece without sampling further. Got the chocolatier shake which had a lot of chips in it making for a nice consistency. Their signature shakes come with a special topping like a cookie or cake pop etc. I read a little about their history and it's Greek immigrants who started a chocolate shop in Pittsburgh back in the early 1900's. They're the new kids on the block in the woodlands. Go give them a try. read more

Mmm. Yummy. So glad to have a new and more importantly DIFFERENT ice cream shop in The Woodlands (no offense to the last Marble Slab left in The Woodlands which I also love. But Sure do miss the Korean owned gelato shop on 242, Sorbetto gelato in Shenandoah, Culver's Custard in Shenandoah, and Rita's Italian ice and soft serve on 1488). We Pennsylvanians really love our ice cream! The vanilla ice cream here is very nostalgic for me as I grew up in Pittsburgh and also lived a fair amount of time in Philadelphia too. This is classic original Pennsylvania ice cream of the 1960s and 70s. Not too sweet (sorry Blue Bell lovers) and also just a very hint of vanilla flavor. It's all about the very farm fresh Pennsylvania milk. No gummy artificial additives either. Its clean taste complements the decadent rich add ons perfectly IMHO. The Hot Fudge also brings me back to my childhood. Thick , gooey, deep dark chocolate rich and definitely warm! Again not overly sweet. I got The Hot Fudge Brownie Sundae- the brownie is ground into powder rather than left in big pieces. A pleasant surprise as I really liked it. Mixes in with ice cream well, bet it makes for a fantastic shake. It also contained a massive amount of mini chocolate chips too! Topped with canned? Whipped cream and a wedge of handmade milk chocolate (again not too sweet. You can really still taste the high quality cocoa beans ) In addition to decadent milkshakes (about thirty different ones by my count including- Apple pie, conferti birthday cake, chocolate malt. Root beer float, banana pudding, strawberry shortcake, chocolate cake, smores, cookie jar combo, banana Foster, chocolate dipped strawberry, chocolate raspberry truffle, mint- chocolate chip cookie, raspberry and cream, salted Carmel Pretzel, strawberry banana) and sudaes (strawberry, s'mores and peanut butter-chocolate). They also offer non-dairy shakes and bowls for the lactose intolerant. They have a display case of hand-dipped chocolate. Get the caramels, pretzels and turtles!!!! Also have trendy Dubai chocolate of course. Plus tons of varieties of chocolate barks. This company is the 4th generation extension of Sherm Edwards candy in Pittsburgh (Trafford) originally from 1914 (where as a child I remember selling their Easter molded chocolates as a school fundraiser- they actually sold themselves. I just visited a couple of neighbors. Word got out and I sat by telephone taking orders for $ hundred $!!!! Lol). Now if only they would keep the original milkshake factory tradition of 1/2 off Shakes on Jake (every time Jake Guetzel scores an NHL goal. Even though he's no longer with Penguins. With Tampa Bay Lightning I believe Lol). Shop is in Cochran's Crossing and is brightly lit. Very sleek and clean looking. Have a small number of tables in back. (I think they may need to consider adding more seating as business picks up. But then again maybe not as Marble Slab, DQ, Baskin Robbins don't have extensive seating either. I didn't see any outdoor seating. read more

The strawberry shortcake milkshake was my favorite. The chocolate bars were good, the service was excellent. The store definitely needed more room for all the great customers to be seated. Overall great experience! read more

Very friendly service and delicious shakes. The chocolate is fabulous as well. It is a great place to go when you need a special treat.

Great place. Milkshakes and chocolates are excellent. Met Lisa, the owner, and she was wonderful. Crew is super nice.
