The Story

The vibrant red and white awning of Fat Boys Creamery beckoned like a sweet promise on a warm Indiana afternoon. Inside, checkerboard floors and tunes from a bygone era made every scoop of their rich, creamy dessert feel like a step back in time. With a perfect shake or sundae in hand, it was easy to settle into the cozy comfort of this delightful retro parlor.

    Wandering around the city looking for a late night dessert, so found this place! Don't mind the 'hopefully' under construction Lowes wallpaper exterior. We enjoyed a Cake Batter scoop in a waffle cone (quite a bit of ice cream for one scoop but also it was like $6 or $7 so....) and a coconut milkshake (also pricy at like $8 for the large and it was just them blending soft serve vanilla, milk, and coconut flakes). Still, tasted decent. Service was not the best, with them watching us stare at the screen of flavors for several minutes and then when we went to order - saying they only have the flavors on the paper on the window. So instead of 15 listed flavors ON the digital menu, they only had 6. Why not tell us sooner? So yeah, that is why a low service rating. Low atmosphere as not really anywhere to go, no indoor at all (order at window) and zero outdoor seating.

    New item! So new it wasn’t on their posted board! You would have to look for it on the self order kiosk. I forgot the name but there wasn’t any picture of it on the kiosk but it had something to do with a spicy burger! Only spicy burger on kiosk! Definitely recommend for spicy lovers! Shown here is extra spicy!

    Beware checking what they have online because they don't actually have half that stuff, despite being able to order tons of shake flavors online and paying for it when you go, they look at you like your stupid when you ask for flavors they list online. The place was a mess and dirty, I'm honestly grateful they didn't have what they listed online because it probably would have gotten us sick.

    We found that it was not a creamery, but a burger and ice cream stop.\n Cameras in 4 corners, a musty smell But the service was nice, not what I was expecting again, it's not a creamery.\nYou want to visit a creamery crystal springs creamery in ocean , that's a creamery.
