Fun old fashioned ice cream stand. Also has a wide range of food. The taco supreme was a good old fashioned American taco. Good for what it was. The turtle sundae was tasty. Why five stars? It is not a culinary experience, but it is a fun old fashioned ice cream joint with good service. read more

Milky Way - Tacos Near Me - Frankfort, Indiana

This iconic ice-cream place has been around since 1950. I'm sure the locals love it as it generally has a line. I'm here for a week visiting my great-aunt, who lives on the side street and grew up here. The only time I've ever not seen a line is when they're closed. I think Frankfort is prime for an upscale burger place. While I can appreciate the real milkshakes, they couldn't get my burger order correct. The fries are superb. Crunchy and hot! The burger was good. Better than any fast food here. This is takeaway only. I'm dismayed that they haven't claimed their Yelp profile. Locals don't need it, but those who travel through? Well, Good Luck! read more

Our service was not as good as usual. Otherwise our drinks were very tasty. Needs to be friendly.

I love that it's open all year. I ordered my small orange twist and savored it on the way home. I love that there is a drive through.

Good ice cream and food. Excellent service and low prices. This place is a hidden gem.

Food is usually pretty decent. Location is weird. Feels like a cast off refugee from the 1950's drive in.

Passing through from Northern Indiana to Indianapolis. Best milkshake I have ever had in my life. No seriously. I have no reason to waste time typing this. read more

An institution in Frankfort Indiana. A go to place for some good tacos, and quite a large menu. This place is constantly busy. Locals know this is the place to go for casual food. Soft serve cones are super creamy. They are small however. The food is actually more of a value, but it is very good soft serve. There is a nice covered patio with picnic tables. A drive thru. You order and pickup through the windows. Many styles of ice cream products, including sundaes. Friendly young staff. Has been in Frankfort since 1950 with various owners. Day or night, a good place to enjoy family time. read more

We're used to the Lebanon location but were pleasantly surprised that the prices are better here and the selection is amazing!

Do I really need to write a review to justify my five star rating? It's Milky Way. A Frankfort staple. It's been around a long time. My mom worked here when she was in high school. Everyone has their different Milky Way favorites. For me... Vanilla coke, cheese taco, chicken fries, orange swirl. read more

Love, love love this place!! Best soft mild tacos EVER!!! Best milkshakes! Best tenderloins! So much more to mention! Love that they are open year round now & that they have a drive thru! It's not the fastest but the wait is very worth it! If you are in the area make sure you stop by and get some great food!!! read more

Our business uses Milky Way a lot...working lunches seem to be where our business is at right now...So glad Milky Way can help fuel the rest of the day! read more

Love this place. I wish they had cherry sherbets more often but ‍ food is always hot and fresh. Strange that a ice cream place would have the best tacos in town... read more

It must be 5 stars' side I go there ALL. THE. TIME! It's famous for tacos and Vanilla and flavored Cokes.. but it's all good. And I love to support family owned local places.. if you are in Frankfort, you must stop for a treat here! They have a drive thru and we're busy and working all through the pandemic. Thanks MW! I knew the first generation owners, second were their kids, now grandkids. RIP Walt and Martha.. and miss ya, Laura!) read more

Girl working the window was more interested in what was going on with her boyfriend that was lingering around the business the whole time we were there. When it was our turn she calls him over for a conversation before taking our order. Made the wrong milkshakes because she was rushing to get back to her boyfriend. read more

Growing up in Frankfort and working nearby, Milky Way has been a great little dessert and food stop for as long as I can remember! As a kid, I'd walk a mile from my grandparents' house just to get a tangerine twist (soft serve tangerine sherbet) - it's THAT good! As a kid, dessert was my main focus - let's face it, that's pretty typical! I have had lots of their ice cream dessert items, and I've never been disappointed! Now, as an adult, I have tried more of their dinner/main course items. Their tacos are FANTASTIC. I am pretty confident they make their taco sauce in house, and you can get tacos made mild, medium, or hot. My delicate taste buds are selective with spiciness, so I always err on the side of mild. It's yum-o! Now, tenderloins are practically a state food of Indiana - well, at least of Clinton County. I have definitely had my fair share. So it's pretty easy to find tenderloins on a menu in the area, and Milky Way is no exception. I've had it a few times, and I have to say it's not my favorite tenderloin. It's good but not great. Its taste seems to vary by the day. Sometimes it's seasoned well (with salt), other times it's bland. Consistency would do it well, but at least it is generous in size and usually juicy (not dry). In all, I love this place and will definitely continue to frequent Milky Way when in town - just will skip the tenderloin for the tacos and tangerine twist! read more

I went on the recommendation of family that live in the area...Got a banana/peanut butter shake...Tremendous! Then I ordered a pork tenderloin slider, and it was so good! Stop here! It is delicious! read more

Ice cream parlor has the best tacos in town. Cherry is fantastic they just don't make it very often.

The Milky Way is a Frankfort staple. I want so badly to give it a 5 star, but the reality is that sometimes (a lot) the service is REALLY slow and the prices are pretty outrageous. With that being said, there is hardly a time that I am back in Frankfort that I don't stop by. I love the vanilla cokes & rootbeers, the tacos (with house-made taco sauce) and the flurries (my personal fave is Oreo & cookie dough mixed.) The ice cream is really smooth and good. I suggest you have lunch or at least dessert here if you're in the Frankfort area! read more

I have been enjoying Milky Way for more than 30 years. In my opinion it's one of the cornerstones of Frankfort, including Case Arena and the football stadium. It's where you get to see your neighbors. The food is typical for this kind of place, it tastes great and the ice cream and vanilla Cokes are the icing on the cake. Most of the time the service is pretty fast but it can get busy. Say hello. read more

Ice crea It ism sandwiches tacos coneys gyros meat loaf Drive up or walk up and eat in your car. Just a few blocks north of the main highway through town, The Milky Way is waiting for you to visit. The menu is large for such a small building. This is strictly a order and go type of restaurant. Of course they have ice cream, but they have all sorts of sandwiches including tacos, coneys, gyros and meatloaf to name just a few. If you driving through Frankfort and are the least bit hungry or thirsty, you owe it to yourself to go to this place read more

A trip to my homeland of Frankfort is not complete without a stop (or two, or three) at the Milky Way. Aside from the fact that it is has been a staple in Ffort for easily over 50 years and it brings back great childhood memories, it is still a must whenever you are heading through town. Milky Way is now open year round and has a drive thru to satisfy your cravings! I have literally seen a line in the middle of winter so I'm clearly not the only one obsessed! Favorites include: a diet vanilla coke (complete with real syrup and made even more amazing by the best crushed ice on the planet), the hot/spicy tacos are small but great, breaded tenderloin, mozzarella sticks, blueberry milkshake, tangerine twist cone, and the strawberry ice are all wonderful. read more

I remember coming here when I was young. After a day of playing at the TPA park, my mom would take us out for ice cream cones. Happy memories! I wouldn't order food here, just ice cream or drinks. The food is just junk like hot dogs and stuff. read more

love the corn nuggets here and the breaded mushrooms too. I've also had the tacos which are great and the ice cream is terrific as well. The only bad thing is there are too many people in line all the time. read more

The onion rings were crispy and very good. We ordered the tenderloin and would not get it again.

Decent prices for the food you get. Kids loved their grape and blue raspberry slushies. Their onion rings are fantastic! They make them there and they are a delight. Sweet Tea was tasty. Outside tables in the shade were nice to sit at. Service was pleasant and quick. read more

Tacos are awesome. Nutter butter flurries are great too. They're always very busy so the wait may be a minute but they move pretty fast and never mess up my order read more

This Milky Way has been in our family for over 60 years. Many food items are old family recipes including the tacos, coney sauce and meatloaf sandwiches.

Stop in to sample some of our items...flavored soft drinks, flurries, breaded tenderloins, sundaes, milkshakes and much more! read more

Great food. Huge menu and friendly people. Milky Way is a must visit location. I highly recommend.

This is what Yelp is all about - finding foodie treasures you would not have found otherwise, especially when traveling. Worth making your way to this local staple. Outside seating only. You may remember your milkshake and sweet potato fries until the day you die. Fried pork tenderloin sandwich may not stick in your memory that long, but is crisp and delicious nevertheless. read more

This used to get 5 stars but the wait is too long and it is more expensive. You cant go wrong with the banana shake though.

This is probably my favorite place to eat in Frankfort. The pizza burger and pizza sticks are amazing. Very good ice cream too. I would rate it perfect but the prices are high, it's more of a treat than a regular place to eat. read more

dang service wasn't that great, ordered a hot dog and Mac and cheese and it wasn't that good. I ate the whole thing and tried to get my money back and wouldn't let me, wouldn't recommend very displeased read more

Frankfort Indiana icon. Don't miss this little gem. Standard ice cream stuff plus. Try the soft hot tacos. I've been going here since the 70's. read more

A purely classic icecream joint. I have many fond memories of coming here with my grandparents after spending the afternoon at the park.

Great food and deserts, a childhood favorite! They also make there own sorbet! Shouldn't be any reviews lower than 4 stars, if so disregard!
