**INITIAL REVIEW**…read more Firstly, I have indulged in Whit's Frozen Custard multiple times on different occassions, with the last time being at Grace Community Church in West Melbourne, FL during one of their special Sunday events. This is probably the first time - that I can remember - I ate frozen custard directly from their brick-and-mortar store located in Historic Downtown Melbourne. So was Whit's Frozen Custard, at least the locale in Historic Downtown Melbourne, a yay or a nay? Frozen custard-wise, it is a yay, but in general, it is not necessarily a nay, but more an observation that can make or break a patron's view of wanting to go to Whit's Frozen Custard (which I will shorthand simply to Whit's for the remainder of this review) or somewhere else. Even though an address is provided, Whit's is located in the East side of Historic Downtown Melbourne, in between Crush XI and Constant Pressure Tattoo Shop. I must stress that Whit's is probably not handicap accessible as the only way in and out has four steps. Inside is quite minimalistic with its overuse of the color white (which kinda fits with their name) and stainless steel, but it fits their theme. The seating is also minimalistic, but it is assumed most people will take their custard and walk with it around and about downtown. Whit's also has numerous flavors pre-packaged for sale, but their flavors they have ready-to-serve is minimal. You can choose either vanilla, chocolate, or the flavor of the day. Today when I went, the two flavors for Sunday was peach and Heath bar. I had two scoops of peach were a nice amount of frozen custard to eat for like $6. Not bad for the price they provide. Given the information above, this is either a yay or nay compared to other frozen custard places. Other places have more options, but they are not necessarily top tier across the board. Other places may be less in price, but the amount of frozen custard you get will be less than the price you pay with Whit's. Like I said, these are not criticisms, but more like personal observations that cater to one's preferences. With that in mind, I am going to give Whit's three out of five stars. They are a-okay with what they have and what they have is delicious, but depending on my mood, I will either go to them... or not. Now if they are consistent with this setup, I will definitely give them an extra star for said consistency. But right now, they are three stars meaning they are a-okay.

The staff were very helpful in explaining options and toppings. The store is extremely clean…read more Several to go flavors. Great little spot in Downtown Melbourne.

The place is built so you can sit inside a shaded area, even though it is outside, and it's most likely a fun place to bring the kids. The problem was, the ice cream seemed to be store bought, and was way too hard to eat. The prices are what you get for on the beach ice cream, but... we could not finish our ice creams due to it being frozen in the center, so.. we threw ours out. As far as where to bring some kids to keep them entertained, why not? But.. not for us.

We loved this place! They unfortunately closed down recently. Just wanted to let anyone know who was planning on coming.

Housed in an older-style cinder-block building it reminds me of many other ice cream stands near the beach that I have seen along the coast line. They have the usual vanilla and chocolate, plus the swirl option (my personal favorite). They have several styles of cones and cups, but I love how they sell the cone as a 'Eco-friendly' option because you get to eat the container...love that! They also have a blizzard type ice cream mashed up with your favorite topping they call a Brrrr-icane. Next time I am in the area I will be happy as a 5-year-old to go back and get a swirl in an edible 'container'.

This quaint little ice cream stop is perfect for grabbing some sweet treats on the way to or from the beach. I believe they only take cash, but don't quote me!
