Milkshakes like you’ve never had them at Starr’s Famous Shakes Milkshake Bar

 

Like all great things, I’ve learned about Starr’s Famous Shakes from the internet. Being huge milkshake fans with considerably sizeable sweet teeth, my friends and I just had to drag our southern bums up north at Katipunan to try out the famed milkshakes ourselves. Very few things are worth a long and tiring commute, let me tell you that Starr’s milkshakes is one of those! It was definitely love at first sip, the kind where all you could utter was an occasional “Mmmm..” between slurping, cause you ran out of words to describe how awesome the milkshakes were.

I did my shake a flavor and added cheesecake bits to my Caramel and Cookie Dough milkshake (Php 95.00). You can’t have too much of a good thing!

 

 

Owners JV Duque and Kitty del Castillo opened Starr’s Famous Shakes with the idea of reviving the classic A&W milkshakes of the 80’s. This idea has spawned the creation of an assortment of milkshakes with the dreamiest flavor concoctions. If flavors like Strawberry Cheesecake, Caramel Cookie Dough, and Choco Hazelnut and Mallows don’t get you drooling, I don’t know what will! These are just some of Starr’s VIP Milkshake flavors. You can also Do Your Shake a Flavor and mix in or top your milkshake with mint chocolate, almonds, bananas, Oreos, and other yummy toppings. For the health conscious and lactose-intolerant, fret not! Starr’s Famous Shakes also have some of their milkshakes in yogurt-based (for lower lactose content) and smoothie-based (for less sugar and fat content) varieties.

Since opening their doors early this year, Starr’s Famous Shakes have had a following of both young and old, all out to satisfy their raring sweet teeth! We’re still hoping they’d open up a store here in Makati (or anywhere within southern proximity) but until then, I guess you’ll just have to make the trek up north to enjoy these amazingly thick and yummy milkshakes When in Manila.
