Great Service! Good people! The wait can sometimes be lengthy but it is so worth it as every employee that I've come into contact with has given exceptional customer service. And have proven themselves to be true artisans in the art of shake elevation. The extraordinary libations they concoct seem to defy logic, seeking to enchant each drink with a level of divine deliciousness not often attempted, and rarely accomplished. But this they manage to do. Each time. So hats off to Monster Shakes for their whimsical creations, and the supreme love they have for their customers. Your dedication to your community is made stronger with every ring of a bell that signals a new customer at your door. Thank you. read more

The shop owner at this location is very rude. She ruined my experience so much so that I didn't even get anything here. I have been here multiple times under the last owner and I had the best experience, but no matter the quality of the items, the service was horrible and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Visit Cat City location or Great shakes in downtown Palm Springs:) It was a small misunderstanding and the owner went out of her way to try and correct me, even went as far as going back and forth with me. She should have politely corrected the issue which was over sample cups for some reason they don't offer sample cups in an ice cream shop. It was very rude, she came around the counter and pointed out the sign that read something about sample cups that I didn't see because they advertised a new flavor so I immediately asked the employee to try it and he didn't explain the process very well and I clearly asked so I just try it from the cup and he said yes. I then went over to try the product and she came around very rude instead of guiding me. I didn't order anything because of the obnoxious response from the owner. She proceeded to tell me to have a great day with a snippy attitude as if she knew nothing would happen to her business with just one bad review. Hopefully this review guides you to better locations so that you can have a wonderful experience elsewhere. I will never return... read more

Talk about sensory overload! This ice cream shop had everything, so colorful and fun. The employee was very helpful by giving us a QR code to a simpler menu. Tried a local must date shake and was not disappointed. If my doctor wasn't so strict I would have "supersized it" read more

Monster Shakes is exactly what the name states! OMG! You are definitely in for sweet treat coming here. Pictures don't do this place justice. You get exactly what you're looking for! I was looking for a delicious dessert and couldn't pass up and see what Monster shakes is about. I yelped through the pictures and several monster shakes caught my eye. But there is so much more available when you visit. It's so much worse! Everyone can leave with something sweet they're craving whether it be something simple from a scoop of ice cream to something extreme like a monster shake! There are so many options, you are sad leaving with only one! You can get ice cream, a sundae, Dole soft serve or have your dessert made! I couldn't decide which monster shake I wanted... Oreo cookie coma, Espresso your self, or Nothing to snicker about. I was so torn, the owner was super helpful! She answered all my questions and more! She said she can make a monster shake with all the fixings I wanted! Yay!!! I ended up getting a modified Espresso your self. My monster shake had espresso ice cream, chocolate twirl sticks topped with a mountain full marshmallows and snicker bites! OMG! It was beautifully made and a work of art! It was delicious! If you are in the area you must give Monster Shakes a try! Enjoy!!! :) Simply the best! Series: 3 2025: 52 read more

A Sweet Surprise: Dole Soft Serve in Every Flavor I was pleasantly surprised by this place. They had Dole soft serve -- the kind I usually only find in Hawaii at the Dole Plantation. Here, though, they had it in just about every flavor you can imagine: strawberry, orange, pomegranate, lemon, and more. I tried several flavors but ultimately put most of mine in the pineapple (check out my before picture below no after picture because it was so hot, I ate it too fast!). Service was excellent, too. Tommy (or Tom) helped me out and was super friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. Definitely a fun and refreshing stop. read more

this was not SHAVED ice this was more like chunks of ice that you would've crushed in a bag. we saw the review pictures and they were nothing like the actual product. I would definitely not recommend going here if you wanted some shaved ice because this was the worst shaved ice i've ever eaten in my entire life. I think I almost had to go to the dentist with how much I was crunching. it was like drinking sugar with water and flavoring in it then crunching on ice cubes. I would rate this 0 stars if I could. read more

Monster Shakes - Custom creation Mega Monster size and the "Give Me S'mores" Monster size. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Palm Springs, California

Came by with the fam during spring break. LOVE the self serve dole whip! Don't be like me and turn your attention away when your 10 year old is serving himself - turned back and he got himself 19 oz with a smug look on his face. Having ALL the dole whip flavors is amazing though, incl the less common flavors like lemon, watermelon, strawberry. Per other comments, some of the toppings were stale. Mochi bits were rock hard. I got the mangonada which was delicious with the dole whip. Their version is basically mango dole whip with chamoy and tajin. I realized I could've made it myself at the self serve bar (since chamoy and tajin are avail toppings) though I'd be missing the tamarind straw, but that would let me customize the size a bit more. Kids enjoyed the ice cream too and my husband liked his milkshake, though I had to remind the staff he was missing the mini donut on top. Staff was helpful but not super warm/nice. I think the poor woman wasn't having a great day as she definitely seemed like she was over all the tourists, ha. Still, the ice cream and dole whip was delicious and we will still be back next time we are in Palm Springs. read more

Staff: The man who took our order was nice but the lady named Kimmie was nicer. Quality/Quantity: The milkshakes were good here with some pretty cool options. We opted for the Oreo cookie coma and a basic vanilla with brownie and chocolate syrup. Both tasted good and were offered in different sizes. Value: The pricing was fair to me. Overall: We originally were planning to go to Great Shakes but they were closed due to maintenance. So we found this spot by chance. Though I would choose Great Shakes over this spot, it was a very good option, and close 2nd for shakes in the area in my humble opinion. read more

The customer service here is amazing. My son and I came here on a recent vacation based on the positive reviews. When we first entered and I tried to read their rotating menu, a staff member offered me a copy of a menu to make it easier for me to read. I was taking a photo of the screens so I could read them. The manager was also there and she answered all my questions about their Acai Bowl. She offered to eliminate the granola since it wasn't gluten free. I don't like to be an annoying customer with lots of questions but my son has Type 1 Diabetes so I needed to know exactly what was going to be in the Acai Bowl and how much. The manager was so accommodating! She had a worker there who was being trained and I think the answers I got helped her staff member too. The Acai Bowl was fresh and delicious. The place is really clean including their restroom. read more

My husband and I are in town for a conference and wanted a milkshake after dinner. A quick Google search led us here to Monster Shakes. Upon walking in we were instantly greeted by 2 young men who were super nice and helpful. They offered us samples and told us what they offered when we said it was our first time in. They had so many choices it was hard to decide. My husband landed on an espresso coffee and chocolate shake and I had 2 scoops in a cup of the banana heath and espresso coffee ice cream. Y'all...this was DELICIOUS! They blended that shake several times. It was the smoothest shake we'd ever had and the flavors were outstanding. Not to mention both guys working were total sweethearts. These are the kind of employees businesses need. This place needs to be shown some real love, I highly recommend it! I'm just sad we don't live closer because we would definitely be regulars! read more

We love this place, the location and atmosphere, especially their incredible shakes and dole whip. The staff are awesome and offer great suggestions. Look forward to our Tuesday evenings after tacos. read more

Palm Springs actually have a few flashy milkshake spots. Here was our experience trying it out. AMBIANCE: Parking: It's in a parking plaza that's not too chaotic, so you shouldn't have any issues. Seating: Seating for maybe about 4 small groups. Room for about 15 people total. Vibes: You're in a plaza with a lot of eateries and a grocery store. It's an ideal spot if you want to be lowkey yet relatively a simple drive away from the Palm Springs Downtown strip. The place itself is a nice simple place that gives a nice throwback candshop feel. Nothing too flashy but a nice place to enjoy the sweet smells and one prize machine game. FOOD: 2 Scoops - Rocky Road & Strawberry Blend (Recommend) Two delicious mixes. You can't go wrong with a nice nutty fill of chocolate and fruity sweetness of strawberry. They also charge a $1 for any extra toppings, I got the Reeses' PB and it was delicious. It was like a PB&J with chocolate! CUSTOMER SERVICE: Thomas was great! Friendly and knowledgable about the menu. TL; DR OVERALL: 4.5 Stars. I had a great time here. Reasonable prices, great choices, and delicious ice cream. If I had the metabolism, I probably would've taken one of their monster shakes. However, they still have other delicious sweet bites. TIPS: * Apparently the only place that has ALL 10 Dole Whip flavors served at once. read more

First time having ice cream at this place. The lady was very rude. I felt like I was bothering her for asking for a sample taste. Very dry and unpleasant service. Then I asked for a cup of ice and with the way she looked at me I offered to pay it. She told me just pay $1 cuz she uses the ice she has for things. Like seriously!! I said nvm and walked out. I will not be going back! read more

What a gem in Palm Springs! I came in with craving for a Date Shake but to my surprise, they had EVERY and ANY creation you could think of......ice cream, soft serve, brownies, cookies, Italian sodas, shaved ice, açai bowls, banana splits, ice cream tacos, cork candy burritos, customized Monster Shakes and more! I was delightfully overwhelmed. While I wanted to try everything on the menu, I stuck with my plan for a Date Shake and they did not disappointment. It was an explosion of creamy, dreamy date heavenly. The employees were all super outgoing and accommodating with customization requests. The place was busy with several families but they didn't sweat it and had the orders rolling out quickly. read more

YUM.. the date shakes are soooo good! My first time trying a date shake and I'm a convert. If we were hungrier, we would've gotten the Dole soft serve yogurt. The owner is super helpful and let us try a ton of samples to help us decide. Highly recommend! read more

Monster Shakes - Date shake - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Palm Springs, California

I've tried quite a few "monster" treats, all of which are amazing. The shakes are fantastic--more like a work of art than just a couple ingredients tossed into a blender like you get in many other places. But my favorite thing is the big row of self-serve soft ice cream machines featuring an enormous selection of various fruit flavors. The Dole pineapple is my favorite, but I usually sneak a little taste of a couple other flavors in the same container. Mmm. Then you pay based on the weight of what you've chosen. And don't forget to give them your phone number to get credit in their frequent guest program. I only have two suggestions for improvement: (1) please bring back that tart flavor similar to Pinkberry and (2) please remove all the calories. Highly recommended. Treat yourself! read more

My friend recommend this place for dole whip soft serve with multiple flavor options. This is locate within a plaza with a lot of parking options. Self serve with options of any flavors you like. They have about 8-9 flavors. They weigh by the ounce/pound. It's like other frozen yogurt places. Grab a cup and add the flavors you like. Once done, add your toppings and get your cup weighed. Careful of how much you add to your cup. It can be costly and that's what happened to us :D I tried raspberry, pomegranate, mango, and classic pineapple dole whip. The only one I really liked was the classic pineapple dole whip. All the other flavors tasted like sorbet and not as creamy as I expected. read more
